Hy’shawn Mandall Curry was 27 and from Thomasville, Alabama, when he was last seen on January 31, 2016. Known as Shawn, he stood 5 feet 9 inches and weighed between 130 and 170 pounds. He had black hair, brown eyes, wore eyeglasses, had pierced ears, and several tattoos on his right arm and shoulder including a music note.

In early February 2016 his gray BMW was found abandoned in the Yellow Bluff area of Wilcox County. Forensic testing of the vehicle detected Hy’shawn’s blood, and police reports say a man named Tremaine Nickerson was seen driving the car in the days after Hy’shawn vanished. Those findings led investigators to treat the disappearance as suspicious and potentially violent.

No body had been recovered and the case remained unresolved for years, leaving family and friends without closure. Anyone who knew Hy’shawn, saw his car in early February 2016, or has information about his disappearance is asked to come forward.
