On December 14, 2025, 37-year-old Ronald Leslie Dumas Jr., known to family and friends as Ronnie, disappeared after leaving Laurelwood Lane in Huntsville.

He was last known to have spoken with a loved one around 10:00 p.m. that evening. Days later, his 2021 black Hyundai Palisade was discovered abandoned along Interstate 40 near mile marker 133 in Waverly, Tennessee.

As investigators worked to piece together Ronnie's movements, evidence led authorities to conclude that he had been kidnapped. Despite ongoing investigative efforts, Ronnie has not been located.

His family continues to search for answers and hopes someone may know what happened after he left Huntsville that night.

If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Ronald Leslie Dumas Jr., please contact the Huntsville Police Department at 256-722-7100.

Because someone knows what happened, and Ronnie's family deserves answers.

On January 17, 2025, 27-year-old Sabrina Rochelle Chambers was last seen in Huntsville.

Investigators believe Sabrina may have been traveling to Memphis, Tennessee, but she has not been heard from since. Details surrounding her disappearance remain limited, and her current whereabouts are unknown.

As time passes, answers become harder to find, making public awareness and community assistance even more important. Someone may have seen Sabrina, spoken with her, or know information that could help investigators determine what happened after she left Huntsville.

If you have any information regarding the whereabouts of Sabrina Rochelle Chambers, please contact the Huntsville Police Department at 256-722-7100.

On July 7, 2025, 54-year-old Neilson Guy Bell disappeared from Huntsville.

According to a family member, she left home briefly to go to a nearby store. When she returned about ten minutes later, Neilson was gone. What makes his disappearance especially concerning is what he left behind. His bicycle, medication, house key, and wallet all remained at the residence, and he did not own a vehicle.

Since that day, there have been no public reports explaining where Neilson went or what may have happened to him. His loved ones continue searching for answers and hoping for information that could help bring him home.

If you have any information regarding the whereabouts of Neilson Guy Bell, please contact the Huntsville Police Department at 256-722-7100.

Robert Dean Miller, also known as "Rob" or "Robbie," was last in contact with family on June 5, 2025. After that, communication stopped.

His dog and vehicle were later located, but Robert never returned for either. He also failed to report to work on June 8, raising concerns about his well being.

Investigators later confirmed surveillance footage captured Robert at a Huntsville Walmart on August 18, 2025. His bank card and PIN were also used at a Wells Fargo ATM on September 28, but it remains unclear whether Robert made the transaction himself.

Authorities believe Robert may be experiencing homelessness and continue to seek information about his whereabouts. Family and friends are still searching for answers.

If you have any information regarding the whereabouts of Robert Dean Miller, please contact the Huntsville Police Department at 256-722-7100.

On June 1, 2012, Donnie Holland was scheduled to meet with investigators.

He never made it.

Instead, a 911 call went out from River Road, where Donnie was found alive inside a black Suburban with a GSW to the head.

For years, the circumstances surrounding Donnieโ€™s death have been discussed, debated, and speculated about. But when we compared the public narrative to the records, several details didnโ€™t line up.

In Part 5 of our Brittney Wood Case Review series, we examine the 911 call, the phone activity unfolding at the same time, conflicting accounts about who made the call, Wendy Hollandโ€™s later statement about retrieving her phone from Donnieโ€™s vehicle, the missing calls described in Medical Examiner records, the phone that left the scene, the autopsy findings, and claims made in *Monster in the Shadows* that are not supported by the records.

Some of the circumstances surrounding Donnieโ€™s death are suspicious.

But not always for the reasons the public has been told.

This installment contains discussion of su***de, self-harm, child sexual abuse allegations, graphic details related to a death investigation, phone activity analysis, publicly available records, and archived statements gathered during our ongoing review of the case.

Read Part 5 at the link in the comments.

As always, if you have information related to Brittney Woodโ€™s disappearance, we encourage you to contact Mobile Police Department .

On September 4, 2025, 52-year-old Alexander James Young was reported missing from Hazel Green.

His vehicle was later found abandoned near a rural county line, but Alexander was nowhere to be found. Investigators have pursued multiple avenues in an effort to locate him, including cell phone search warrants, records requests, and reviews of banking activity. So far, those efforts have produced no answers.

According to family members, disappearing without contact would be out of character for Alexander. Months later, they are still searching for information about what happened and where he may be.

Someone may remember seeing Alexander, his vehicle, or unusual activity in the area around the time he vanished. Even the smallest detail could help move this investigation forward.

If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Alexander James Young, please contact the Madison County Sheriff's Office at 256-553-8820.

On October 16, 1989, Acie and Carolyn Worthy were found murdered inside their Tuscaloosa County home. Both had been shot after returning from church, where Carolyn served as a choir director. Investigators determined the home had been deliberately set on fire in an apparent effort to destroy evidence.

The brutality of the crime immediately drew attention, and investigators later identified similarities between the Worthys' murders and the January 1989 killings of Robert and Katherine McRae in Graceville, Florida. Evidence recovered in both cases suggested the crimes could be connected, leading authorities to explore whether the same individuals may have been responsible.

Over 35 years later, the murders of Acie and Carolyn Worthy remain unsolved. Their family has spent decades waiting for answers and accountability.

Someone knows what happened that night. Someone knows who pulled the trigger, who set the fire, and why Acie and Carolyn never made it safely home.

If you have any information regarding the murders of Acie and Carolyn Worthy, please contact Tuscaloosa County Metro Homicide at 205-464-8690.

Because justice delayed is still justice worth pursuing.

On April 21, 1973, 18-year-old Paula Ellis left her dorm at Martha Parham Hall on the University of Alabama campus and rode her bicycle to a concert.

Her bicycle was later found back at the rack, but Paula never returned.

The following day, her body was discovered approximately 10 miles away. Investigators determined she had been strangled and thrown from a bridge.

More than 50 years have passed since Paula's murder, yet her family has never received the answers they deserve. Generations have come and gone since that spring night, but the person responsible has never been held accountable.

Someone knows what happened to Paula. Someone has carried that truth for decades.

If you have any information regarding the murder of Paula Ellis, please contact Tuscaloosa County Sheriff's Office at 205-464-8690.

Because no family should have to wait half a century for justice.

On March 9, 1991, 24-year-old Jennifer Watkins Dorch returned home to her mobile home on Highway 43 in Northport after a night out with friends.

Sometime after arriving home around 4:30 a.m., Jennifer's life was violently taken. The following day, a relative discovered her deceased inside the residence. Investigators determined she had been stabbed to death.

More than three decades have passed since Jennifer's murder, yet her case remains unsolved. Family members have lived with unanswered questions for 34 years, waiting for the day someone comes forward with the information needed to explain what happened.

Someone knows who entered that home. Someone knows why Jennifer never got the chance to live out the future she had ahead of her.

If you have any information regarding the murder of Jennifer Watkins Dorch, please contact Tuscaloosa County Sheriff's Office at 205-464-8690.

Because time doesn't lessen the loss, and it shouldn't erase the pursuit of justice.

On April 18, 1982, the body of an unidentified woman was discovered along the bank of the Black Warrior River in Romulus.

Investigators estimated she was between 34 and 38 years old, approximately 5'4" tall, and weighed between 110 and 115 pounds. She had dark brown hair, a scar above her right eye, and wore a partial denture. Despite extensive efforts to identify her, her name remains unknown more than four decades later.

The image shown is a facial reconstruction created to represent what she may have looked like in life. Someone, somewhere, knew her. Someone recognized her smile, heard her laugh, and wondered where she went.

Her story didn't begin the day she was found. Until her identity is restored, an important piece of that story remains missing.

If you recognize this reconstruction or have any information that could help identify this woman, please contact Tuscaloosa County Sheriff's Office at 205-464-8690.



Because every victim deserves their name back.
