January 24th, 1963 was the last time the residents of Paris, Texas would see the eccentric and mysterious hermit, Auvord Bevans Braithwaite Jones. Not only had Auvord gained the respect and adoration of the town, he was highly intelligent and immensely well-read. While there is no actual proof that the man had a secret stash of money in a shack on the property he owned, there was plenty of talk of a hidden fortune there. Other facts contradict the notion but police still believe that Auvord was murdered for that very reason. His violent demise angered the community, stumped police, and began a mystery that remains unresolved to this day – 56 years later.You can support gone cold podcast – texas true crime by visiting https//:www.patreon.com/gonecoldpodcast.

True crime

In late August of 1971 11-year-old Johnnye Henderson should have been entering the sixth grade alongside her peers. One morning, however, her mother returned home from a short trip to the store to find Johnnye had vanished. The Odessa Police Juvenile Division didn’t seem too worried about the disappearance, since there were no signs of foul play and civilians who’d searched the large field behind her home said they hadn’t found her there. But when Major Crimes Detectives came on the case three days later, they found Johnnye’s body, which was in an advanced state of decomposition. Though a cause of death could not be determined, Johnnye Henderson’s death was clearly a homicide.If you have any information about the 1971 murder of 11-year-old Johnnye Janelle Henderson, please call Odessa Crime Stoppers at (432) 333-8477 or submit a tip at the Odessa Crime Stoppers website: https://www.333tips.org/unsolved-crimesYou can support Gone Cold – Texas True Crime and listen to the show ad-free at patreon.com/gonecoldpodcast Find us at https://www.gonecold.comFollow gone cold on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, and X.

The Murder of Johnnye Janelle Henderson

As the search for Kimberly continued, more folks who craved the spotlight emerged. There was Dallas psychic extraordinaire John Catchings, whose “visions” resulted in nothing more than heartache and wasted time and resources. There were well-meaning folks who came to help, of course, like the Heidi Search Center and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Unfortunately their altruistic efforts also resorted in nothing new being found. One man who came to help – a man who was so inspired by Kimberly’s disappearance that he began researching the nationwide problem of missing children, he said, and began an organization of his own – put the family, Kimberly’s Mother Janice said, through hell.

Kimberly Norwood Part 3: Hope & Despair

When The Shreveport Times released verbatim portions of troubling letters Kimberly Norwood had written months before her disappearance, it was the first time her parents, Bobby and Janice Norwood, had read them. It was another blow, they said, like the many they felt they’d been hit with at the hands of Harrison County Sheriff Bill Oldham. Out of desperation, the family brought in a Dallas psychic, but what she had to say, which included information that had been previously released in the local newspaper, led absolutely nowhere. But when Janice Norwood found out a neighbor had seen a motorcycle leaving the Caney Creek addition in Hallsville at the same time Kimberly is thought to have vanished, an employee of the family becomes a potential suspect.

Kimberly Norwood Part 2: Sightings, Letters, & Psychics

In early May 1989, sixteen-year-old Michelle Lee Richardson vanished from East Texas, the city of Palestine specifically. Just weeks later, on May 20th, another East Texas girl turned up missing under similar circumstances. Kimberly Norwood was a twelve-year-old who loved life and, believe it or not, school. She was experiencing the normal throes of being a preteen, but Kimberly was a good kid who never got in trouble and had certainly never tried to run away. But when she came up missing near her home in the Caney Creek Addition of Hallsville, Texas, the Harrison County Sheriff’s Office were working the case as if she had left on her own. Kimberly took no clothes, however, and left all her money behind. The harder the Norwood’s fought for Sheriff Bill Oldham to allow outside help to come in, the harder he fought against them. All they wanted was their little girl back, and the lawman, as the Marshall News Messenger put it, seemed unmoved by the family’s plight.If you have any information about the disappearance of Kimberly Rachelle Norwood, please call the Harrison County Sheriff's Office at 903-935-4888.If you have any information about the disappearance of Michelle Lee Richardson, please contact the Anderson County Sheriff's Department at 903-729-6068.You can support Gone Cold – Texas True Crime and listen to the show ad-free at patreon.com/gonecoldpodcastFind us at https://www.gonecold.comFollow gone cold on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, and X.
