Case[]

Diane and her daughter, Tammy, were last seen in Daytona Beach, Florida, on June 11, 1979. One of their neighbors saw them leaving their apartment at about 6:00 a.m. Diane never showed up for work, and Tammy didn't attend school that day. All their belongings were at home, and nobody took money from their bank account.

On December 6, 1986, about seven years after their disappearances, a portion of Tammy's skull, along with some of her clothing, were discovered in Newington, Georgia. Tammy's remains were mistakenly identified as being that of a woman between twenty and forty, but an anthropologist corrected this error in 1992. Tammy remained unidentified until July 2013.

The prime suspect in Diane and Tammy's case is a man who was Diane's boyfriend. He was born and had family living in Screven County, Georgia, where Tammy's partial skull was found. He denied murdering the two until he died in 2009. Tammy's death and Diane's disappearance remain unsolved.
