Alabama season 2 of the 50 State Cold Case Spotlight. In today's episode, I'll be featuring 5 Unsolved Cases that still need the public's help. Each of these cases needs more media and social media attention to generate the tips and leads to finally solve their cases!
Cases featured:
📍Christina Lynn Carter
In September 1973, Christiana Carter, 3, and her mother, Janet, disappeared from Hueytown, Alabama.
Janet was recently divorced from Christina's father and had planned a trip to the Great Smoky Mountains.
When they didn’t return as planned, they were reported missing.
There was no sign of the two until October 7th when Janet's remains were found bound and stuffed into a duffel bag 50 miles from Winston-Salem and Christina was nowhere to be found.
To this day, nobody has been arrested in Janet's death and we still don’t know what happened to Christina.
📍Ieasha Abrams
Ieasha Abrams 34 had gone through some struggles but had finally gotten her life on a solid track.
She was trying to do right by her three children when her remains were discovered behind her Birmingham Alabama apartment complex in October 2017.
Investigators told reporters in 2018 that they were close to cracking her case and that they had a solid suspect, they just needed the public to come forward with more information.
📍Sherry Ann Milton
There are two versions of what happened to Sherry Milton 26 in August of 2005 but what's clear is she was last seen at a gas station in Ensley Alabama.
Despite conflicting stories, investigators quickly determined two people of interest in her case, but there are still no official suspects at this point and her case remains unsolved.
📍Haleigh Breann Culwell and Kimberly Whitton
Kimberley Whitton 36 and her daughter Haleigh Culwell 11 were last seen in June of 2007.
Kimberley’s husband Barry told investigators that Kimberly and Haleigh left their home in a white Ford or van truck with Alabama license plates shortly after Kimberly got home from work.
He said he gave her $20,000 in cash and never saw the pair after that. He told investigators he believed they were headed to Montana.
What Kimberly likely didn’t know about her husband Barry and investigators would soon discover was that her husband, Haleigh’s stepfather, was the main suspect in his first wife’s murder.
His first wife, whom he also told investigators, just left him one day. Haleigh and Kimberly's case remains unsolved.
📍Tarasha Benjamin
Tarasha Benjamin 17 Family faced so much tragedy before she vanished in June of 2010.
Two of her siblings died in a house fire when they were just three and four years old and two years before Tarasha vanished her father vanished.
His remains were found behind a restaurant in Selma, Alabama, and to this day it’s reported that it is unclear what happened to him. Tarasha's sudden vanishing has left her family with even more heartache and unanswered questions.
