Mother's Fight for Justice is the deeply personal story of Stephanie Belgard's relentless search for answers after the murder of her daughter, Courtney Megan Coco.
When Courtney's life was taken, Stephanie's world changed forever. What followed were years of grief, unanswered questions, frustration, and doors that seemed to close everywhere she turned. But Stephanie refused to let her daughter become just another cold case.
For years, she gathered records, followed leads, questioned answers that did not make sense, and fought to keep Courtney's name alive. Then, after nearly seventeen years of searching, retired Louisiana State Police investigator Woody Overton entered her life. Through Woody and his podcast, Real Life Real Crime, Courtney's story reached an audience far beyond Stephanie's family and community. New attention, new information, and a renewed investigation followed-giving Stephanie hope that justice might finally be possible.
This memoir takes readers behind the headlines and into the life of the mother who lived every day of that fight. Stephanie shares Courtney as she truly knew her: a daughter, sister, friend, and young woman whose life meant far more than the circumstances of her death. She also recounts the people who refused to give up alongside her, the investigation that finally began moving forward, and the long road that ultimately brought Courtney's case into a courtroom.
Raw, heartbreaking, angry, hopeful, and deeply personal, A Mother's Fight for Justice is a story of a mother's love and the extraordinary lengths she was willing to go to make sure her daughter was never forgotten.
This is Courtney's story, but it is also the story of a mother who never stopped fighting to make sure her daughter was remembered and justice was finally served.
