Drink about something
DRUNK ABOUT SOMETHING TAMLA HORSFORD RECAP
A birthday sleepover. A pot of gumbo. A football game on TV. By sunrise, a mother of six was found face down in the yard. We walk through the final hours of Tamla Horsford’s life with care and precision, tracing the timeline, the interviews, and the red flags that have fueled years of questions. This isn’t about chasing shock; it’s about clarity, context, and the dignity owed to a life cut short.
We start with who Tamla was: a joyful parent, a devoted sports mom, a woman trying to build community in a new town. From there, we map the house layout, the guest list, and the social dynamics that shaped the night—accepted drinks, rejected tequila, patio smoke breaks, and the moment the party turned into a mystery. The morning discovery and the 911 call set the tone for what followed: a blunt notification to the family, a quick accident ruling, and a trail of investigative gaps that never fully closed.
Along the way we examine Cumming, Georgia’s racial history and why it matters for understanding trust, power, and perception. We look at dead security cameras, missing door notifications, unusual interview behavior, and the days of private meetups after the fact. We also revisit the wave of public pressure that pushed the case back onto investigators’ desks, and why the official conclusion still leaves so many unconvinced. Through it all, we keep the focus where it belongs—on Tamla’s humanity and the basic standards any fair inquiry must meet.

If you looked at the layout of this house, you can Google it. You can see, like, you know, they were they were so they were separated, even though it was supposed to be just a girls' night.
SPEAKER_01:And that was in some money. That was a nice ass house, dude.

So um they were, you know, watching the LSU Alabama games, and that ended, and um Tam called her family for a FaceTime call to tell everybody good night. And then two of the ladies leave around 10:30 because they had to work the next day. And um around 12:45, Marcy and Jen retire to one of the rooms.

SPEAKER_02:This story really fucks with me, like ever since I first heard it, because I'm like, somebody's gotta know something, okay?
SPEAKER_01:Because it's it's washed away. I mean, there's no fucking way that all these things transpired without being some kind of debauchery. Because there's a lot of chicks that's.
SPEAKER_02:Well, there's a there's a girl on TikTok who she she's so funny. She wears her little tinfoil hat. I need to. And her series is things that we've moved on too fast from. And this case right here, I believe that we have moved on way too fast from it.

SPEAKER_02:What?
SPEAKER_01:It was a it was a fashion trend. Really? Like if you were a macaroni.
SPEAKER_02:I tried to get Silas to tell me that. And he was I was like, why does Yankee Doodle call his hat macaroni?
SPEAKER_01:He didn't tell you. No. So all the dudes with the fucking wigs with the powder hair and all the curls, they were called macaronies back in the day.
SPEAKER_03:Really?
SPEAKER_01:Yes. Did not fucking know that until me and him's doing some history on the 1700s. And it's like dudes like with the big, I mean, there were dudes that had, y'all can't even see it in the screen over here, how high the fucking macaroni was. But the curls and the biggest. You know, George Washington never did wear a wig.
SPEAKER_02:So all that's bullshit?
SPEAKER_01:That was his natural hair.
SPEAKER_02:Oh, that was his natural hair.
SPEAKER_01:Because he powdered it and curled it.
SPEAKER_02:He powdered it and curled it.
SPEAKER_01:Everybody powdered and curled their hair. He did the natural with his natural ass wooden teeth.
SPEAKER_03:Okay.
SPEAKER_01:So, yeah, during the the wars and things, he was the general of and then became the revolutionary. I want some wooden teeth. Do you?
SPEAKER_02:I don't care.
SPEAKER_01:Lindsay. Landon's not here, and we're not going to talk about your teeth right now and where I want to put things on your teeth. But anyhow, listen. Let's listen. Macaroni is a fashion trend. Are we? Yes, on TikTok. Oh. Well, anyhow, macaroni is a fashion trend, and they didn't even know about macaroni in the 1700s, the noodle, until they like hung out to the show. I mean they had Italian people. They had a Spanish. No, no. It was a fashion trend, I swear to God.
SPEAKER_02:Was it fucking Christopher Columbius Italian Columbius? Columbus Italian. Christopher Columbius. Wasn't his podcast Italian? No. He was Spanish. Spanish. Okay, I'm sorry.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, they didn't have macaroni in Spain yet, no.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, so.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, Raceronian.
SPEAKER_02:When Bridget left, macaroni. Tam was still, was she was having a bowl of gumbo. She said she was gonna have a smoke and she was gonna go to bed.
SPEAKER_01:Now uh smoking a pancake or a bong and a blitz. Oh my god, Jesse. I'm sorry.
SPEAKER_02:So around 4 or 10 a.m., Marcy left, and then after that, um Paula leaves, and then Stacey and Tom leave soon after.
SPEAKER_01:Which is shady. All this is shady.
SPEAKER_02:Now, Madeline, she this is Aunt Madeline. She sleeps, I her room is in the basement. Uh Madeline wakes up and she's gonna make some coffee, and she passes by the window and outside, and she leaves she sees Tam laying face down.
SPEAKER_01:Which is where I turn to the plant in Lindsay's story because I'm like, this is some fuckery. Go ahead.
SPEAKER_02:So Tam is laying face down and she's not moving. And Madeline's first instinct is to say a fucking prayer. Sorry, that's not your first reaction. When you see somebody laying face down, not breathing, I'm gonna go check it this shit out, dude. I'm gonna go up there and be like, what the hell's going on? Are you okay? So then after she says her prayers, uh, she goes to Jean and Jose's room and says that she needs to speak to Jose. And then after I guess they assess the situation, like some time has passed, and then they finally call 911. Jose, or first Jean speaks to him, then Jose speaks to him, and then police and investigators arrive shortly after and confirm that Tamla has is deceased. Then after that, uh they go and they visit Leander to go, you know, they're gonna go tell him that his wife has passed, but they're very aggressive and very mean about it. Um, they asked him three times if his name was Lee, and he was like, actually, my name is Leander. You know, what is this pertaining to?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, by the way, your wife's fucking dead. Yeah, and they said your wife is dead. Yeah, by the way, let me just fucking let you know now.
SPEAKER_02:It was very blunt, very uh unincreased. Unsincere.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, just don't give a fuck. This is what happened. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:And um, so they pretty much say rule right away that it is a tragic accident. How? And then um, yeah. The women, everybody was interviewed. You can find these interviews on YouTube. Uh, Bridget's is the most disturbing to me because all she talks about is how she's the mother hen and she's got OCD and she has all the xenics. She takes a lot, she takes a cocktail of prescription drugs. Yeah, it's a very well if you do have to do that, I I we understand. We get it. It was just very strange how she is talking about that consistently in her.
SPEAKER_01:She's not fucking drugs to be a dietary supplemental fucking in front of it's like that many. Come on, you got that many, and you got your own necklace?
SPEAKER_02:And the fact Yeah, the fact that she kept talking about how she's a mother hen and she's the cleaner of the group.
SPEAKER_01:She's and nobody's gonna take my Xena X. I'm the mother hen.
SPEAKER_02:Right. Yeah, it's very strange. Did you listen to the interview?
SPEAKER_01:I did not. Is that nice? It was pretty close. Is that really? That was that was accurate.
SPEAKER_02:So, I mean, in in the in Aunt Madeline's interview, um, Jean interrupts and offers the cops Dunkin' Donuts gift cards.
SPEAKER_01:What did I say? I said she's gonna give them a necklace of Dunkin' Donuts packed.
SPEAKER_02:Well, John and Bridget are two different people. Well, yeah, but yeah.
SPEAKER_01:But I did say that.
SPEAKER_02:But it was that's very weird. That's weird. You're there's a crime or a tragedy that happened at your home, and your answer is to give the I I don't know. I don't know. I I haven't been in that position.
SPEAKER_01:By the way, here's some Dunkin' Donuts gift cards.
SPEAKER_02:Right. And her thing was like Cox Live Donuts, right?
SPEAKER_01:What I said is very, very true. And by the way, I have a$50 gift card here for you. Right. For Dunkin' Donuts. Um the whole world runs on Dunkin'.
SPEAKER_02:Leander, okay, so number one, there were no or EMS services or or yeah, EMS services were not called. Number one.
SPEAKER_01:Number one.
SPEAKER_02:Number two, no autopsy photos were taken. Number three, when Leander got to the funeral home, he noticed that they had painted Tam's face darker than she was naturally. Kitty jobs. He said, he said, this is his words, that it looked like she had black face. It looked like that she had been painted with black shoe polish.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, and we had we had heard and seen. I have been to some African American like funerals where you know black people were just sitting there in a casket. They do sometimes their pigment does turn darker, but do a good job. Make them look fucking respectful. Do a good fucking job. It's it's makeup, dude. You want to make them look nice. Come on, dude.
SPEAKER_02:Now, uh another thing that was very sketchy was that security cameras in the backyard had uh they they weren't charged. Um they were were basically dead cameras that she was no longer using. More red flags. Um f uh notifications from her camera. Okay, so she had no she would get notifications when doors were open, and I guess all this would collect into a file, and some of that went missing as well.
SPEAKER_01:Very sketchy. Which would have been showing all the chicks that were fucking off in the middle of this fuckery.
SPEAKER_02:Now, another thing that I did not mention in the episode, the all the people that were involved were meeting at Jean's house like every day for a week.
SPEAKER_01:Planning.
SPEAKER_02:Not prior to afterwards, which raises some some suspicion as to maybe they were just trying to get a story straight.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, planning, yeah. I mean, I'm not saying we're not saying, but we are saying there's something strange. Now this case in the gumbo.
SPEAKER_02:This case would have two different investigations because uh after the George Floyd murder happened, and you know, due to uh police brutality, right? Tam's case was renewed in the public interest, and uh there was a petition of over 700,000 people on change.org. You can find this. I signed it while I was covering this case. So much, thank you. Now the GBI did get involved in the second investigation, but it was still ruled as an accident. But like I do say in the episode, in my humble opinion, I really feel that this case is unsolved. Me soon. And many, many, many, many people widespread through the internet that I have seen agree with me.
SPEAKER_01:The question mark with the exclamation point is there. Yes. I really do think so.
SPEAKER_02:And definitely go listen to our episode because I do give a little history into things that happened in Cummings, Georgia, in Forsyth County.
