Raven Rollins is a P.I. turned investigative journalist and victim advocate. Raven Rollins is a true crime author and the voice behind Sirens | A Southern True Crime Podcast. Known for her fearless pursuit of the truth and deep empathy for victims and their families, Raven specializes in cold cases, suspicious deaths, and forgotten crimes, particularly those rooted in the American South like her home state of Oklahoma. Her writing blends meticulous reporting with emotional storytelling, giving voice to the silenced and shining light on cases long ignored.
Raven’s work has reignited public interest in several unsolved cases, drawing attention from regional media and law enforcement. Her books, including "Sins of the South: Three Oklahoma Cold Cases" and "Allegedly: True Crime from Pontotoc County, Oklahoma," are praised for their investigative depth, compassionate tone, and narrative style. Her next project, "This Is True Crime: A Guide For Becoming An Advocate For Justice," draws on all her knowledge and experience to empower victim family members and true crime creators to keep cases alive while keeping ethics and advocacy at the forefront of storytelling.
In the Fall of 2025, Raven's book "Allegedly" was selected as the course textbook for East Central University's new course "Narratives of Justice." It also won 2nd place in nonfiction/true crime at the Bookfest Awards, and was a Finalist in the 2025 American BookFest 22nd Annual Best Book Awards in the true crime/nonfiction category.
When she’s not digging through court records, old autopsy files, or hosting panel discussions with victims’ families, Raven continues to advocate for justice—one case at a time.
Raven resides in Oklahoma with her husband Rick, son, English bulldog, Shih-Tzu, and Tortie cat.
