 Unknown. Bethany's photo is shown
age-progressed to 18 years. She was last seen on March 4, 2001
returning to Jackson, Tennessee after a trip to Little Rock, Arkansas. Bethany and her father, Larry, had been in Little Rock, Arkansas, and were on their way back to meet her mother, Johnnie Jo, at the Waverly exit off Interstate 40. On the way, they stopped at the Old Hickory Mall in Jackson on the afternoon of March 4, 2001. Bethany had gone into the mall alone while her father slept in the car. After approximately two hours passed, Bethany's father went into the mall to look for his daughter, but was unable to locate her. Several witnesses saw Bethany in the company of an unidentified Caucasian female shortly after she disappeared. A sketch of the female is at right. She is described as being approximately 42 to 44 years of age, 5'4" to 5'5" tall and 185 pounds. She was said to have dark circles under her brown eyes and frizzy blonde hair. She appeared to be unkempt. Authorities stated that the unidentified woman attempted to enroll Bethany in a southeastern Tennessee school in April 2001, and that the woman was later seen boarding a bus with Bethany. Investigators believe that they may have traveled to Moline, Illinois. Bethany's case remains unsolved. |
