We explore the haunting 1988 disappearance of Keith Call and Cassandra Hailey—no bodies ever found—and the 1989 murders of Annamaria Phelps and Daniel Lauer, whose remains were discovered weeks later in woods near I-64. These cases close out the Colonial Parkway series, with lingering questions about connections to the earlier killings. We cover investigative challenges, family perspectives, and 2024–2026 breakthroughs linking deceased suspect Alan Wade Wilmer Sr. to multiple victims (including recent resolutions for Thomas/Dowski). Some justice delivered, but closure remains elusive for these families. Tips? Contact FBI Norfolk or Virginia State Police.
