In 1991, 84-year-old Mabel Seymour walked away from a nursing home in Chatham County. A year later, two workers discovered the deceased body of an elderly woman by the side of a road in Petersburg, Virginia. A note found with her body said her name was "Wilma." But as news about the undentified woman in Virginia began to spread across the South, some wondered if the two women were one in the same.

January is National Stalking Awareness Month, and while most victims know their stalkers, in rare cases a person may be targeted without even knowing it. In the spring of 2002, 23-year-old Stephanie Bennett was found murdered in her apartment. After her body was discovered, neighbors at her apartment complex came forward to report they had seen a mysterious man looking into Stephanie's window in the weeks before her death. Two years later, police were able to apprehend the suspect, learning it was not the first time he had murdered a complete stranger.

In 1981, three men invaded a private residence and home of "root doctor" Edward "Doc" Harkless. In the next several hours, they murdered him and three other people in the Columbia, S.C. home, leaving two survivors. It appeared Doc was murdered because of a large amount of cash he kept in a locked safe, but did his line of work also have something to do with the crime? We also give an update to Susan Smith's parole hearing that took place in South Carolina this week.

The Missing in America Project helps provide the remains of veterans with honorable burials, but it takes a team of volunteers to do so. We share some of the recent stories from the nonprofit. In 1980, Jeffrey Mays and Ted Wall set out on Jeffrey's boat off the coast of Cape Hatteras. No trace of the men or the boat was ever found, but Jeffrey's family believes he could still be alive. Another Concord, N.C. man disappeared off the coast of North Carolina while on a fishing trip. What happened to Bill Hollingsworth? We also share an update on a missing man found buried on a property in Lowell, N.C. and the possibility that Susan Smith could soon be released on parole in South Carolina.

In 1933, 64-year-old widow Mary Ravenel was discovered mortally wounded in an affluent area of Charleston. Despite their best attempts, police could not figure out who would have wanted to murder her. An auto mechanic thought he could make some quick cash by abducting Hubbard Harris, Jr., the son of a prominent man in Columbia, but the plan quickly went off the rails.
