Julie Ann Lovett, 29, disappeared from Mountain City, Tennessee in March 2001 after a day of brief public movements that leave a sparse timeline. Reports say she argued with her boyfriend that day, used a payphone at Big Louis’s Market, walked south on U.S. 421, made another call from a payphone at a local bar, then was seen walking north on U.S. Highway 421 and was never seen again.

She was described as brown-haired with hazel eyes, between 4 feet 10 inches and 5 feet 4 inches tall, about 100 pounds, with a heart tattoo on her left arm, scars on her chin and abdomen, and a metal plate in her jaw from a previous car accident. For years the disappearance remained cold, and in 2012 convicted killer Frederick Phillip Hammer confessed to picking her up after a call from Big Louis’s Market, killing her and moving her body to Ashe County, North Carolina. Authorities have not found physical evidence or her remains to corroborate that confession, and no charges have been filed; some family members have raised doubts and pointed to her then-boyfriend as a possible suspect.

Who in Mountain City remembers Julie that night or has information that could help locate her or confirm what happened?
