On Friday, December 12, 1980 at approximately 6: 45 in the morning, the Mississippi County Sheriff’s Department got a call about a female body lying on the side of Highway 181, just south of Highway 158.
The woman was dressed in a striped red colored dress and velveteen jacket and was five foot five. She weighed around 115 pounds.
It wasn’t hard to figure out the cause of death - Barbara had massive holes blown into her body by a shotgun. The shots were so violent that pieces of her hair and skull were found 20 feet away.
And just like in Amanda Tusing’s case, there were suspicions that a police officer may have been involved - and the murder is still unsolved.
If you have a case you’d like Catherine Townsend to look into, you can reach out to the Hell and Gone Murder Line at 678-744-6145.
