S3 Ep 2: Discovery, Coverage, and Conflicts

One night. One missing clerk. One story that still echoes through two states.

In December 1978, twenty-year-old Debra Gunter vanished from the Li’l General store where she worked the overnight shift in Gautier, Mississippi. Days later, her body was discovered miles away in rural Alabama. Sellers & Stormy share Debra’s story, uncovering long-buried details and connecting with investigator Lt. Darren Versiga, whose renewed look at the case may finally shed light on what happened that night. This is more than a mystery—it’s the story of a young woman who deserves to be remembered.
