Episode 121 David CarterIn the Fall of 2018, 39 Year-Old David Carter of Melvindale, Michigan was a busy man. He worked a full time job, and had his own clothing line; Lavish Habits Unlimited. He even found time to coach youth football. He also had been in a relationship for 6 months with Tamera 'Tammy' Williams. But David, as busy as he was, was never too busy for his family who he was close with, especially his son DJ. He looked forward to DJ's visits, which is why it was surprising to DJ and DJ's mom Sonia when they both got texts from David saying he was sick and was canceling plans. DJ decided to go over to his father's apartment to get his phone charger, and that's when DJ had an odd encounter with his dad's girlfriend, Tammy. DJ saw Tammy outside of his dad's apartment and when she saw DJ coming, she ran inside and locked the door. DJ used his own key to let himself inside, and Tammy told DJ that his dad, despite being sick, had gone for a walk. DJ felt something was off and noticed that doors inside the apartment that usually were kept open were shut. DJ left the apartment but he had a bad feeling. On October 2, 2018 after a friend called David's family to voice concerns that he had not been to work in a couple days, David's sister Tasia and her husband went to his apartment and found it unlocked but there was no sign of David. Alarmed, Tasia called her and David's father Elton and DJ's mom Sonia to come over to help look for David. They were alarmed that the apartment wasn't tidy as it usually was. They called Tammy to ask if she had seen David, and she said she hadn't and she didn't seem too concerned that David was missing,David's family reported him missing to police, and when police and David's family searched the apartment closely, they found troubling signs that something bad had happened; including blood, and a bullet hole.The previous day, Department of Transportation workers found human remains, specifically a “lower torso and legs” inside of a sleeping bag in Eagle Township, Ohio over 100 miles away from David’s apartment There was a pit bull tattoo on the left leg. That tattoo aided in identification of the partial remains as belonging to David Carter. The news was devastating for David’s family. David's girlfriend was brought in by police and detained for 3 days before being released due to a lack of evidence. On October 10th, David’s head was found in a black duffel bag and on October 16th, his hands and the rest of his torso were found wrapped inside a comforter inside a small suitcase. Both discoveries were made in Ohio along I-75. This allowed investigators to see that his killer had shot him once in the head, just below his left ear. There were no defensive wounds at all, leading investigators to believe that he had been shot while he was asleep.Having all of David’s remains now, and knowing he was the victim of a homicide, police went back to arrest Tammy as the suspect in his murder. But there was a big problem. Tammy had fled, and today, her whereabouts are unkown. Authorities followed her trail to Chicago, and then New York where her the trail went cold. David's family is devastated by his murder and it's been made worse due to the prime suspect in his case fleeing, In this episode, David's sister Tasia discusses David's tragic murder, and how it's affected their family. David's case was featured on Netflix's Unsolved Mysteries in the Fall of 2022, but despite the publicity, Tammy remains on the run. There is a $10,000 reward for information that leads to Tamera Renee Williams’ arrest. Tammy is an adult black female, 5 foot 5, around 180 - 200 pounds at the time she was last seen.

Episode 118 Katie PalmerOn the morning of April 21, 2020, Katie Palmer, a beloved 39 year old teacher and mother of 2 in Dennison, TX was struck and killed as she took a walk in her neighborhood with her husband John. As the pair walked looking at birds, a truck driving on the wrong side of the road plowed into them both, knocking them out of their shoes and sending them 70 feet. John was severely injured and despite having a broken back, crawled to Katie's side to check on here but she was barely breathing and her eyes were fixed. Police and EMT's were dispatched to the scene. John was taken by ambulance to a local hospital and Katie was Medavaced to Plano, TX where attempts to save her failed, and she died from multiple traumas including severe head injuries. Back at the scene, it was determined that one of the Palmer's neighbors, Cory Foster, had been driving the truck that struck the pair. Body cam footage revealed that the state trooper questioning Cory Foster detected the smell of alcohol on Foster's breath, and Foster admitted that he had been drinking the night before. But astonishingly, the trooper did not give Foster a breathalizer until almost an hour later. When the results came in, Foster was just under the state's legal limit. Had he been tested an hour earlier, he may have been found to be intoxicated. As if that wasn't bad enough, a check of Cory Foster's background revealed a history of multiple driving infractions including driving under the influence, and reckless driving. Depite the clear fact that Cory Foster's actions led to Katie Palmer's death and John Palmer's severe injuries, officials in Grayson County, TX have refused to prosecute Cory Foster. It's left John Palmer understandably angry and searching for justice while he has had to adjust to raising his kids without Katie. John Palmer discussed the tragic events of that day in this episode, and his efforts to get justice for Katie.To learn more about Katie's case and help the cause, visit the website:https://justiceforkatiepalmer.com/or Facebook group:https://www.facebook.com/justiceforkatiepalmerTo support this podcast with a donation, you can do so via Patreon at:https://www.patreon.com/TheMurderInMyFamilyor through Paypal at:https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/AbJackEntertainmentTo contact the podcast or learn more about the case we discuss, please visit:TheMurderInMyFamily.comFollow us on social media;Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/pg/The-Murder-in-My-Family-True-Crime-Podcast-998674943627334/reviews/Twitter-@MurderinMyFam

Episode 117 Mary Hayre74 Year-Old Mary Hayre was the glue that held her family together.The mother, grandmother, and great grandmother was a big part of her family's lives, but on February 27, 2021, Mary was killed in a senseless and tragic act of violence.She had gone to the Pinecrest Apartments, located at 1920 McMillan Avenue in North Charleston to get a cell phone her great grandson had forgotten at a sleepover. While she sat in her car talking to her daughter Pamela on the phone, someone walked up to the driver's side door of her car and began shooting at Mary. Tragically, Pamela heard it all on the phone call. Despite it being the middle of the afternoon on a Saturday, not many people came forward with information, perhaps because they were afraid to. Eventually one witness did come forward and from a photo lineup, they picked out a man named Zaswan Rosendary as the shooter. On March 5, less than a week after the murder, Rosendary was arrested and charged with murder as well as possession of a firearm during the commission of a violent crime. Just weeks later, Rosendary was released after information came to the attention of police; information that police are keeping close to the vest. The police and Mary's family are back to square one, and Mary's family is desperate to see justice done.Mary's daughter, Pamela, discusses the events of that tragic day in February, 2021, as well as her family's pleas to see Mary's killer held accountable.If you have information about Mary's murder, you can remain anonymous, and call Crime Stoppers at 843-554-1111 or submit a tip on the website at www.5541111.comTo support this podcast with a donation, you can do so via Patreon at:https://www.patreon.com/TheMurderInMyFamilyor through Paypal at:https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/AbJackEntertainmentTo contact the podcast or learn more about the case we discuss, please visit:TheMurderInMyFamily.comFollow us on social media;Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/pg/The-Murder-in-My-Family-True-Crime-Podcast-998674943627334/reviews/Twitter-@MurderinMyFam
