Julie Love was 27 and recently engaged when she vanished in Buckhead, Atlanta, on July 11, 1988. Driving a red Mustang convertible that ran out of gas, she began walking for help. A maroon Cutlass with three occupants pulled up; after initially waving them off, the car returned.

She was driven to another location, robbed of bank cards, beaten with a sawed-off shotgun when PIN withdrawals failed, raped by Porter, bound with coat hangers, and taken into woods where Hammond shot her in the head. Weldon later went to police in August 1989 and, wearing a recording device while talking to Porter, helped investigators. Porter led authorities to Love’s skeletal remains and pleaded guilty to murder and rape in exchange for testifying against Hammond; Weldon received immunity. A Fulton County jury convicted Hammond of murder, kidnapping, and armed robbery, and he was sentenced to death.

Did anyone in Buckhead in July 1988 see a red Mustang or a maroon Cutlass that might be connected to this case?
