May 28, 1983: Badly burned 1977 Honda Civic is found in a field.  The body in the driver seat was so charred it was difficult to positively identify. The license plate and other items showed the vehicle belonged to 55-year-old Edward L. Cates - a former Mississippi Assistant Attorney General and Jackson City Commissioner. Cates wife, Dorothy, identified a partly burned shoe found on the left foot of the victim as belonging to Cates. Edward L. Cates was a veteran and received a full military funeral. A month after his funeral Cates was found living under an alias as a Retired Army General,  in Lawrenceville, Georgia. Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack investigate the case of the disgraced lawyer who pleaded guilty to reduced charges and is sentenced to 20-years in prison, without identifying the person found in his burning car who was buried in a grave with Ed Cates name on it.....40 years later, Body Bags with Joseph Scott Morgan is helping our friends at Othram raise the money needed to move forward with the investigation.

Kimberly Langwell leaves work just after 5 p.m. on July 9, 1999, and vanishes.

Kimberly has dinner plans with her 15-year-old daughter, Tiffani, and new boyfriend, Ken Weatherford, but fails to show up. Tiffani notifies the police immediately, as it is totally out of character for her mother not to show up.

Police find Kimberly's car in the evening, and she disappears in the parking lot of an Eckerds Pharmacy. Searching the vehicle, investigators find her cell phone, but her purse and keys are missing. Nothing appears to be broken, and there is no sign of blood.

Kimberly Langwell is gone.

Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack discuss the case and what happened after 25 years that led to an arrest in the disappearance and murder of Kimberly Langwell.
