| GGL,I too have tried alot too get the story of JB and Tracie on coldcase shows.You know,I have always felt in my heart that the person (persons) that killed these girls was known by one of the girls.I also have felt that the killer or killers killed them for some ungodly reason other than sexual,and thats why I believe that the DNA found on JB was not the killers.That may sound far fetched,but thats how I believe.We all are thanful for all the ones that havent forgot JB and Tracie.I too go too see their memorial sight as often as I can,and others do as well.The best idea I have to offer,is to not let the young girls be fogotton.Oh theres one other thing...The girls were at the store,Tracie calls to let her mom know that they were lost,Tracie was to be home by 12..if they werent sure how to get on 231,or what other way they would go too get to Dothan,why didnt they ask the store keeper? And if they did ask,and was told,the sign too 231 is right near the store.. |

| Because of the area where the car was found I truly believe the killer or killers were local. I live blocks from Hrrring Ave and have never driving it.I dont think the killer thought they would be found so quick The case has become a part of my life.I dident know Tracy or JB but I visit the memoril evey month to clean it up and leave two roses.The only time the city visits Herring Ave is when that terrible day rolls around and they know there will be press.I have contacted every show that I can think of to keep this case alive.That could have been my daughter going to a party on a Friday night like so many young people,they dont relize the evil thats out there and it sometimes comes in an hansome boy who could show them the way to the party they were looking for.I want justice for these girls who never got to start ther lives and will contine to call every show,person or cold case detective untill someone listens I cant let them die in vain.None of our children are safe until then .An ideas or help I could offer contact me angeliqueee1@aol.com |

| These storys are rumor, I did know Brantly and yes he was a sever drug addict and anembarrassment to his family. He died of a drug over dose and there was no suicide note I promise you he liked himself way to much for that. But his family has had to endure the rumors that he sent a note to the victims family, why would the family of these beautiful girls hide the identity of there killer makes no since .The family did hide a lot of Brantley’s indiscretions’ ,but the conspiracy theory is far fetched at best what reason would he have?Money,nothing was missing, Drugs? They were in a known drug area but because he is dead now guess its easy to say it was him case closed OPD is a joke |

| First I have to know..... Queenie is that one of your babies? I love the pic regardless!!!!!!!
NAMOM, yes, please join us soon!!!
Sting you are a wonderful human being and your caring goes beyond your community as does your sacrifice and I love you dearly, my friend!!!!
Carolyn.... I am trying to get the Carolyn in there but to me you will always be Queenie... Nancy Grace is over the top. It's obvious she attracts an audience because she is on the air but she also repels and I am of that crowd. LOL, starting a conversation is easy to do with me, usually.... Getting me spun up can be easy as well, depending on the matter. I admit I have a bit of meanness in me too and it is fun, depending on the matters, to spin people up.... But if I had to be around the type that needed to be spun up to initiate conversation, I think I might would have to kill someone, lol.
My mom used to say, in a facetious tone, "raise hell I despise peace" usually when her 5 children were fighting and we got into some knock down drag outs... Today, I see it as a way of life for some people.... Insensitivity.... I am guilty of being insensitive depending on the matter. Sometimes I am misunderstood as being insensitive when I am looking at the truth over all else and I am being sensitive and tough too.... Nancy Grace has no class or grace, imo.... I will admit when I feel like someone needs to be dragged through the pig slop..... Nancy Grace can do it and I will applaud her for the entertainment but she takes it too far and way over the top. I like my news to contain serious, factual matters.... Not entertainment or theorhetorical spins.... It's more fun do in real time, lol I don't watch CNN and the last time I watched it, I watched Nancy Grace and then I took CNN off of the menu. With satellite I can do that, lol.
Also, I am sending you an email through the forum. I can't find your email address from the yahoo forum days... |

Hey, cute picture Carolyn. Uh. maybe you all do know me, but you know it doesn't really matter in the long run. As long as I do my job in a satifactorily manner, then I have done a service to the community. Recognition is of no importance, as long as you know your job, get it done, and return to family, friends and neighbors safely in the end, right. Take care ladies and God Bless you always......I'll see you around town. Who exactly are you NAMOM? I'll turn it around on you ha ha ha......
Just know that I do care for the people of the city of Oz......OK I do my job because I like what I do. |

stingray gotta admit i wonder about your true identty also----lol----you're like superman/clark kent........ as far as my nee to be in law enforcement not hardly! i am just a nosey middle aged woman.... nanc grace CAN be over the top (VFT) BUT sometimes that is what it takes. she is so over the top she is a high recognition figure- when you get lampooned on SNL or MADTV you've "made it"- anyhow she does get the publicity and gets people talking. love her or her, she knows how toevoke controversy and that initiates conversation.

you know stingray, the more this gets out in the public eye the higher the likelihood that new info can be garnered. maybe nancy grace will pick this up. shes like a hound with a bone. and definately america's most wanted again would be great. btw since you have ties w law enforcement: i had spoken with the chief a year or two back. over there on herring ave its so wooded and DARK. i feel the city should light that area up. what do you think? i really wish our street lights could be updated to those kind that put off more light. |

| LOL "A hound with a bone" yes indeed, she is something else. You are right about that fact that this needs to be kept brought out in the news or whatever way possible. Each time it does get out we do receive some new calls. Thank you Carolyn, maybe you need to be a reserve officer for the OPD or a constable. LOL. Keep your eyes and ears opened let us know what's on your mind. I think it is very dark in the area as well and that needs looking into but you know it is the commissioners and the mayor that votes on lighting issues, right. CMOM, I can not answer that question on here but I DO believe this case WILL be solved. Yes, NAMOM, I too was disgusted to how that turned out, where the grand jury did not see fit to indict him on that case. I too think of that one everyday. |

| Hey Namom,
I have sent you several emails. Do you have more than one email address?
I too emailed Nancy Grace but am glad she didn't want the story, she is a pig, imo. I also emailed Greta Van Sustren and she wanted to do a story and contacted me and the family but no one wanted to go on the record. I only made contacts on behalf of the family because they wanted to reach the media. When the chance came they backed down. I made my feelings known about it and you know how mad you know who got about it, lol. |

Don't hold your breath about Nancy Grace, I DID Email her about Angela.....never heard a thing. I mean, how interesting is that? A woman dissappears, she is married to a man who spent 17 yrs in prison on murders charges....and who could STILL go back, and her body is found a month later......suspicious circumstances, but Nancy didn't bite. As much as I would like to think that everyone in the investigation is honest and upfront, I feel like someone , who I don't know, is holding back, protecting the guilty party. Just my humble opinion. I hope they find out who killed these girls too. I've heard a couple of wild tales....found them hard to believe but...I guess anything is possible. |

| We HAVE followed every little inkling of any info that comes out and about, if you get my drift. I had heard this info that you speak of as well and there is NOTHING to it. We need really hard facts, all these rumors just end up wasting time but are checked out. We will solve this, one day we will receive the right call from the right person, and you know who you are, and will follow that lead or info and then it will be solved. There is SOMEONE out there that knows SOMETHING and has yet to say anything to anyone. Well now is the time to clear your conscience. Tell us so that we can get a killer or killers off the streets. |

| stingray glad to know the DNA was tested. i think they should really address these rumors and issues. i had heard that the one person who was arrested knew facts about the case that he could not otherwise have known if not involved- and that came from a VERY VERY reliable source. but i know you've got to have proof to prosecute a case. |

| It wasn't an officer who killed himself because he could't live with the guilt, it was the grandson of a former Chief Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court. |

| Did anyone notice that Judge Steagall didn't miss a day in court after his sons death. I had to go to court a total of 21 times in two years trying to get a restraining order against my "ex" for abuse. 18 months later it was dismissed without ever going to trial. This all happened during the same time period. I noticed that the Judge never showed any signs of mourning. Also, did anyone notice that the District Attorney, Atwell was another one that didn't take any time off proir to Jennifer Atwell's untimley death. There were no signs of mourning from this person either. I personally don't think either one was in their right mind and should have been forced to take a leave of absense and take the time to grieve. |

I heard and cannot remember the name.... An Alabama judge's grandson was suspected to be involved and he killed himself before an investigation was completed. |

| I've been a reader here for years but had nothing to say before today. Reading about the psychics coming in leads me to one burning question: Unless I've been grossly misinformed around my town, why have not the issues with the officer one of the girls was allegedly dating and who subsequently killed himself because he "couldn't live with the guilt anymore" been delved into further? |

| This for PointnLaugh.
I would kike very much to ask you this question.
How do you know that the OPD,DCSO,and API,know who killed JB. and Tracie?Did someone tell you this?Also,you say "One involved did have family connections,three are still alive"
If the OPD,DCSO,and API do know who killed JB and Tracie,why hasnt there been an arrest?Do you feel its a coverup? What I would ask you too do,if you have any information that this is true,and you dont trust local or state law inforcement,you need to contact the Justice Dept,The FBI in Washington.You can tell them what you know,and if you have a lawyer,he himself should know what too do.If what you have said is true,but if its just rumors you have heard,hearsay,it would get very far,but if you have enough to raise eyebrows,it will work,then write your book.I too feel that something isnt right with this horrible crime,have always felt that way,and think that the person or persons that did this are still in Ozark,no proff,just a feeling,and that comes from one main thing that happened after the girls were murdered,and thats where their car was found,they say that they werent killed there.One killer drove the girls car too where it was found,and another person drove that person away.I hope someone that knows anything will please call the FBI.

Unsolved Ozark Murders Remembered
Aug 23, 2005 10:37 PM CDT
A friend brought a drawing of Tracie and J.B. to Sunday's memorial. The two girls were found in the trunk of a car in August, 1999. Help Us Cover This Story Click Here to Help Us Cover the News "For seventeen years, I had a beautiful, lovely daughter that God gave me and, then, in one night somebody decided they had the right to take her away from me."
Six years to the day, the mystery lingers on the edge of Herring Avenue: Who killed Tracie Hawlett and J.B. Beasley?
Tracie Hawlett's stepfather, Mike Roberts, says, "Unless somebody has [gone] through this themselves, they'll never know what it's like to lose a child."
August 1, 1999, investigators found Beasley's car parked on the side of this road and later discovered the two girls bodies in the trunk. Both were killed execution style.
The secret of what really happened that night has eluded all who want closure. Tracie's mother, Carol Roberts, still recalls the last words she shared with her daughter.
Carol Roberts says, "[Tracie] called me about 11:35 and said, 'Mom, we're lost. We've got directions and we're on our way home.' Nothing was wrong. We always told each other, 'I love you.' At the end of the conversation, she said, 'Mom, I love you,' and she never came home."
Today, many in this group would be celebrating J.B.'s twenty-third birthday. Instead, a memorial. It's an irony not lost on those who remember the two friends and light candles so others too will not forget.
"I promised Tracie when she was laying in that casket that if it took my last breath, I'm going to do all I can to find who did it. That was my promise to her and i aim to keep that promise."
In just the past few weeks, family members say they've gotten several new leads in the case and they're optimistic that, even after six years, it can still be solved.
Tracie's parents have hired a retired police chief who has experience dealing with cold cases. He's already identified three possible suspects.
The victim's families are asking Ozark police and the Dale County Sheriff's Office to cooperate with the private investigation.

| I believe that if and when this case is solved there will be a LOT more than meets the eye. i'd heard through the grapevine that there was a soil/ sand sample found on the girls that pointed to the actualy place of the crime which was around an area called sandy creek. we hear so much but let me assure you that there have been lots of leaks from officials that are likely pieces of the truth. can't wait for that episode of haunting evidence |

| You are on the right track. One involved DID have family connections. Three are still alive. The OPD, DCSO and API know who did it. I'm writting a book based on the murders, but have to modify some things to make it fiction to avoid lawsuits. I have an attorney assisting with what I need to do. It will be close enough to what happened for everyone familiar with the case to figure out the truth. |

| Many private investigators have worked this case over the years. This case is a cover up. Evidence has been destroyed and surpressed. Johnny Barrentine was arrested because he gave facts that only known to someone who was involved with the crime. He was used as a pawn by two others, one dead and the other still living. |

| That's right Caroleena, everyone in any law enforcement office or job always needs a little extra "help" from everyone. Still taking calls on any leads that ANYONE may have, no matter how small or large a detail or information is we need to hear it. I don't know everyone is getting the idea that the SO isn't or hasn't worked this case. They have a file just as OPD does. As some people prefer to call the SO sometimes and sometimes the OPD with info..........Thanks Caroleena. |

| Alabama Girl you are right, that murder was and still is a city investigation. The bodies were found inside the city limits. I am not sure if the murder scene was as I do not really believe they truly know where the scene was. The county would only get involved at the request of the city. |

| at this point the city needs all the help they can get on this case....S.O., ABI, psychics, whatever. Whoever killed these girls- be they dead or alive- needs to own what they did and be punished if they are still alive. i know some people don't believe in psychics but a lot of people do and there has been lots of cases that psychics have assisted in and helped. so whatever it takes.....i'm all for it!! |

| I think of these girls often too. I still believe it is or was someone with big connections. Also, about the sherrif's dept. role. I may be wrong, but I believe this is a city investigation and they do not appreciate much help from the county. Like I said this is my understanding from other sources, so please don't bash my post. |

Hello All, I posted the same thing in topic on here,sorry,didnt see this post. I havent ever forgot these two young victims,think of them like Rose does. Rose,I too believe something just wasnt right in the investigation.Rose,if you believe in your heart you have any information,and you feel it was overlooked,tell some other law inforcement, tell someone that will listen and look into it.Go public,news,tv shows,national. I know how you must feel. I miss Pats web page with all the info on JB and Tracy.He kept it on the front page till the end. Rose,theres alot of people that wont forget these young girls. I do hope with all my heart that Wally Olson will reopen the case of JB and Tracie.

Court TV series to feature murdered Ozark teens Ebony Horton ehorton@dothaneagle.com Thursday, February 15, 2007
OZARK - An editorial titled, "The Tragedy Remains," is between several plaques of achievements hanging neatly on the wall of Police Chief Tony Spivey’s office.
The editorial was about the only arrest the Ozark Police Department has made for the murders of Dothan teenagers Tracie Hawlett and J.B. Beasley, who were found dead in the trunk of Beasley’s vehicle, abandoned on an Ozark street on Aug. 1, 1999.
The suspect was later released based on a grand jury citing lack of evidence. The killer or killers of the two Northview High School seniors have never been found.
The teenagers’ story has aired on America’s Most Wanted and been printed in several national publications.
And with another ray of national spotlight, Spivey hopes more information will surface that could give both the families - and the police department - closure.
Paranormal experts starring in "Haunting Evidence" on Court TV will come to Ozark at the end of February and the beginning of March to investigate the murders, Spivey said.
The episode is expected to air on the show next fall. The experts are often called "psychics."
"We want this to be at the forefront of everyone’s mind. There is someone, somewhere - may not be in the Wiregrass, may be out of state or close by - that has some valuable information," Spivey said.
"Somebody has the key to the answers we need … and they can’t come fast enough. We’ve not had a homicide case go this long without being solved."
Spivey said Court TV contacted him six to eight months ago for a brief overview of the cases. Station representatives then discussed the information with the Haunting Evidence production staff, which agreed to film in Ozark.
The department has used psychics before, Spivey said, but he was willing to do whatever necessary as many times as possible to get the case solved.
Investigators have revisited the case at least once a day to either comb through evidence, decipher rumors from actual leads, or follow similar cases throughout the country in hopes of a link. Their prayers are that they and the families could get closer to an answer of not only who, but why.
"This case is very solvable. I have no doubt in my mind that it’s going to be solved," Spivey said.
"Anytime you get a fresh set of eyes to look at any type of homicide, you’re making progress."

| Check today's Eagle. They're bringing in psychics (court tv) to further explore the case. Sounds like good news. |

| I am so glad to see that JB and Tracie are not forgotten. I think of them everyday. I would like to let the public know that it is my belief that Ozark has not investigated this case to the fullest. Since the murders were near me and there was someone I knew that I suspected I finally was able to get Henderson to give me his time to tell him what I knew. He had just got back from an extended vacation is why I had to wait in the first place. After talking with him for a short while I could tell that he did not take me serious. I tried to follow up with the ABI and they were not interested either. Now whether my information was the key or was not I think I should have been taken more serious. In the beginning I spoke with Ben Key he is the one that said that I should definately talk with an investigator. Now I can say that I did what I had to do. So I live with the fact that my information was not valid enough to be explored by Ozark but I am still haunted by it, and wonder did they handle the whole investigation like this. |

| I noticed that the Feb 13 Ozark Edition of the Dothan Eagle had the front page headline: "Four Murders in Dale County still unsolved", the writer, Ebony Horton went on to indicate three unsolved murders but no mention of JB and Tracie. This was information from the Dale County Sheriff Department's Chief Deputy, Tim McDonald. I can't believe that those two murders were omitted! It is, in my opinion, especially hurtful to us at this forum who at one time made this the top topic for many months. Does this indicate that the Sheriff's Dept does not recognize the JB and Tracie case still open and worthy of mention or was it an honest omission by the Eagle writer and/or Editor? |
