S1 Episode 25: Carrie Lawson Part 4

Welcome to part 4 of our investigation into the Carrie Smith Lawson disappearance! We are not done with this case and are still looking for answers. Carrie was kidnapped in 1991 in Jasper, Alabama and has never been seen again.

Did Jerry Bland, one of Carrie’s kidnappers, really kill himself or was he murdered? How involved was Karen McPherson in the kidnapping and should she be serving a life sentence? Finally, we discuss the corruption that is deep rooted in Walker County, Alabama and try to figure out who the real mastermind was in Carrie’s disappearance and presumed murder.

Join Kristi as she delves back into the Carrie Lawson case with an exclusive interview with James Lancaster, Karen’s brother. We continue to believe there is more to this story and more people involved in Carrie's disappearance than the one person, Karen McPherson, in prison for her kidnapping. Who were the others, not including Jerry Bland and Karen McPherson, who were a part of this kidnapping?

Our hope is to bring everyone who was involved in Carrie’s case to justice. We also want to bring peace and justice to Carrie’s family. If you have information about this case please contact Kristi at [email protected].
