Peggy Lynn Grimes was 22 and eight months pregnant when she disappeared in the summer of 1993. Her mother reported her missing to Fulton County authorities after Peggy stopped communicating. In September 1993 skeletal remains of a young woman were found in a wooded area of Douglas County, but the body could not be identified at that time.

Years later, a suspect already in custody, Gerald Patrick Lewis, confessed to killing Peggy. He told investigators he picked up the visibly pregnant Grimes, drove her to a secluded spot in Douglas County near a bridge, led her into a patch of kudzu, and killed her, also causing the death of her unborn child. The Douglas County remains were later identified as Peggy’s by DNA comparison with her mother.

In November 2001 Lewis pleaded guilty to malice murder, felony murder, feticide, aggravated battery, and kidnapping in Peggy’s death. A Douglas County jury sentenced him to death in 2004. Did anyone who knew Peggy or saw her in the summer of 1993 notice anything out of the ordinary?
