One night. One missing clerk. One story that still echoes through two states.
In December 1978, twenty-year-old Debra Gunter vanished from the Li’l General store where she worked the overnight shift in Gautier, Mississippi. Days later, her body was discovered miles away in rural Alabama. In this season premiere, Sellers & Stormy revisit Debra’s final hours, uncovering long-buried details and connecting with investigator Lt. Darren Versiga, whose renewed look at the case may finally shed light on what happened that night. This is more than a mystery—it’s the story of a young woman who deserves to be remembered.
Got information?
Special thanks to Lt. Darren Versiga for his unyielding efforts to ensure no case is forgotten, his dedication to finding answers, and his invaluable support and collaboration in the making of this season.
🎟️ Don’t miss Lt. Versiga live at True Crime Chronicles: The Case of Serial Killer Sam Little on November 1st in Ocean Springs, Mississippi.

When Stephen Pearson signed for a misdelivered package to help a postal worker, he couldn’t have known it would set off a chain of events that would end in mystery, suspicion—and silence. The package? Ten pounds of marijuana. Stephen’s reaction? He told the neighbors they had to report it… or he would. Days later, Stephen vanished without a trace.
In Part 2 of Unforgotten Episode 5, we discuss the package, suspects, cars, and hear more from Sheriff Burch and Stephen’s daughter, Julie Pearson.
Someone knows the truth… and someone made sure Stephen never came back.

Thanks for waiting on us! Stormy started a new job (aside from ACCA), and it derailed the editing schedule a bit. We begin by discussing the unfortunate outcome of Brittany Robinson's father's murder trial. And then we bring you the long-awaited case of Stephen Pearson from Grand Bay, AL.
On December 27, 2000, when Stephen Pearson signed for a misdelivered package to help a postal worker, he couldn’t have known it would set off a chain of events that would end in mystery, suspicion—and silence.
The package? Ten pounds of marijuana.
Stephen’s reaction? He told the neighbors they had to report it… or he would.
Days later, Stephen vanished without a trace.
In Part 1, we take you back to the beginning—to who Stephen was, what he said, and how his final days unraveled like a slow-burning fuse. You’ll hear never-before-released details, quotes from those closest to him, and insight from the very investigator who’s carried this case for more than two decades.
Because someone knows the truth… and someone made sure Stephen never came back.
