About This Episode
What is this episode about?
The episode "The Death of Annie McCann and the Baltimore Police Department - October 31 2026" from Morning Cup of Murder covers the disappearance of Annie McCann, a young girl who vanished from home on October 31, 2008. The Death that followed became the center of a bitter, long-running dispute between her family and a police force, a conflict the episode notes remains unresolved to this day.
The family's fight for answers has reportedly pitted them against an entire police department as they sought to prove what happened to their daughter. The case has drawn attention from national outlets over the years, with the family pressing officials and even state leadership to intervene and reexamine the original investigation. At the heart of the matter is the unresolved question of how Annie McCann died and why her family believes the Baltimore Police Department failed to adequately investigate her death.
