On April 10, 1975, 25-year-old Diane Bellamy Neely of Georgetown, South Carolina, was murdered by Donald Henry Pee Wee Gaskins. Diane had separated from her husband, Walter Neeley, and was in a relationship with 34-year-old Avery Leroy Howard.

Investigators later linked multiple disappearances and killings in the area to Gaskins. Authorities recovered shallow graves at his Prospect, South Carolina property and tied him to several other murders; Diane’s brother Dennis Bellamy and half-brother John Henry Knight are listed among his victims.

Does anyone have family recollections, documents, or local leads about Diane Neely or her connections in Georgetown that could add detail to what happened that spring?
