Cheryl Hodges Dunlap, 46, of Crawfordville, Florida, was reported missing after she failed to appear at her Tallahassee church on December 3, 2007, where she regularly taught Sunday school. Her family found her white Toyota Camry abandoned north of the county line the next day, and about 180 volunteers joined a large grassroots search of the surrounding area without initial success.

On December 16, 2007, a hunter named Ronnie Rentz discovered the decapitated and decomposing body of a white woman in the Apalachicola National Forest; DNA profiling later confirmed the remains were Cheryl Hodges Dunlap. Investigators classified the death as a homicide and pursued several leads, including a suspicious green truck seen nearby and surveillance footage showing a man withdrawing a total of $700 from her ATM on five transactions. Tips also mentioned a peculiar homeless man with a dog who drove a green 2001 Chevrolet Astro van.

No arrests had been announced at the time investigators described the case as an isolated incident. Does anyone have information about the green vehicle, the man seen on surveillance, or activity in the forest that week?
