Kimberly Lynn Spicer was a 26-year-old White woman from Baltimore who vanished in November 1996 after last being seen near a pallet company on the city’s south side. Reports place her crossing paths with a man who lived in a trailer on the company grounds; her body was later found near that trailer, and another man told authorities he had helped conceal the remains. Accounts say Spicer was killed by stabbing in mid-November and that her body remained at the industrial site for about a month before discovery.

Investigators treated the case as tied to a wider pattern. Joe Roy Metheny was arrested on December 15, 1996, and was later convicted in Spicer’s murder. He initially received a death sentence in the case that was subsequently set aside; he was resentenced to life without the possibility of parole. Convictions were secured in Spicer’s death and at least one other murder named in media accounts.

Does anyone have memories of the pallet company area or knew Kimberly that could help fill gaps in her last days?
