Teresa Carol Allen was 18 when she disappeared after beginning a part-time shift at the Majik Market in Cochran, Georgia, on Sunday, December 12, 1976. Later that evening the store was found empty, its cash register and safe open and emptied of $466. Her late-model Pontiac Grand Prix was also missing.

Two days later Teresa’s body was found in a wooded area off a dirt road in Monroe County. An examination showed she had been shot and died of blood loss from the bullet wounds; the scene indicated a violent struggle. The investigation produced indictments charging Roosevelt Green Jr. and Carzell Moore with her rape and murder. Both men were tried separately; Moore was convicted of rape and murder and sentenced to death, and Green was convicted of murder and sentenced to death.

A contested piece of testimony came from a man named Thomas Pasby, who said Moore had confessed to him that Moore alone had shot Teresa. That dispute reached the U.S. Supreme Court and affected Green’s appeals. Did anyone who knew Teresa or lived in Cochran in 1976 see her car, the Majik Market that night, or have information about the two men named in the case?
