In late spring 2016, 55-year-old Terry Wayne Roberts of Empire, Alabama, was reported missing on May 28. Two days later, on May 30, an investigator driving along Allen Ridge Road detected a strong odor and found a badly decomposed male body concealed under a mattress in a ravine a short distance from Roberts’ home. Forensic analysis later confirmed the remains were those of Terry Wayne Roberts, and he had been fatally shot in the head.

Within days investigators arrested three people who lived in the same house as Roberts: his 23-year-old stepdaughter Kayla Harris, his 19-year-old stepson James Lee Harris, and Kayla’s 22-year-old boyfriend Jacob Orr. Authorities announced that charges would be filed, and at least one of the three was expected to face a murder charge.

Was anyone in Empire connected to the household who can shed more light on Roberts’ last days or the people who lived with him?
