IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO GO STRAIGHT TO THE CRIME CONTENT, PLEASE CHECK THE RELEVANT TIMESTAMPS.

On February 15, 2024, an Amber Alert was issued for missing 11 year-old Audrii Cunningham, in Livingston, Texas.  Police initially said that Audrii had been dropped off to a bus stop earlier that morning and had never made it to school.  The last person said to be seen with Audrii was Don ‘Steven’ McDougal.

Steven’s long rap sheet for unrelated crimes quickly became public and many pointed the finger at him.  Steven began commenting on the True Crime Society Facebook page, protesting his innocence.  “I was there and was questioned. I am not running or hiding,” he wrote before commenting again and saying, “I have done everything I can to help find her. I have done nothing wrong.”

Audrii’s tiny body was found in a river on Tuesday February 20, 2024.  She had been weighed down before being dumped.

Steven McDougal has been charged with Audrii’s murder.
