S2 Ep 5: Stephen Pearson, Part 1

Thanks for waiting on us! Stormy started a new job (aside from ACCA), and it derailed the editing schedule a bit. We begin by discussing the unfortunate outcome of Brittany Robinson's father's murder trial. And then we bring you the long-awaited case of Stephen Pearson from Grand Bay, AL.On December 27, 2000, when Stephen Pearson signed for a misdelivered package to help a postal worker, he couldn’t have known it would set off a chain of events that would end in mystery, suspicion—and silence.The package? Ten pounds of marijuana.Stephen’s reaction? He told the neighbors they had to report it… or he would.Days later, Stephen vanished without a trace.In Part 1, we take you back to the beginning—to who Stephen was, what he said, and how his final days unraveled like a slow-burning fuse. You’ll hear never-before-released details, quotes from those closest to him, and insight from the very investigator who’s carried this case for more than two decades.Because someone knows the truth… and someone made sure Stephen never came back.If you have any information regarding Stephen’s case:📞Text or call our tip line at 251-501-COLD (2653), EXT. 3📬Email [email protected] Submit using our contact form on alcoldcase.com.#StephenPearson #Missing #GrandBayAL #AlabamaThank you to Sheriff Burch and Investigator Mitch McRae of the Mobile County Sheriff’s Office for their unrelenting efforts for Stephen and many more, and for collaborating with ACCA to bring greater awareness to Stephen’s case.Voices For Victims 5K - VOCAL is this weekend - you can still sign up!!Don’t forget we still have a few t-shirts left in our merch store. (Also, we’re working on some new merch!
