Stacey Lynn Hazelton was 21 when she was last seen in Alligator, Bolivar County, Mississippi, on May 21, 2004.

Stacey had moved from Kinzers, Pennsylvania, to Mississippi earlier in 2004 with boyfriend James Arthur Fannings Jr. The couple reportedly lived with Fannings’s longtime friend, Chevaun Pierre Mack. Family members say Stacey contacted them in May asking for money so she could leave Fannings and return to Pennsylvania; the money was sent but she never arrived and did not make further contact. Her family reported her missing in December 2004.

Authorities later developed testimony from Chevaun Mack that he saw Fannings shoot Stacey in the head and that the men placed her body in a plastic barrel, tried to burn it, and buried remains in woods near a creek in Duncan, Mississippi, before driving Stacey’s green Chevrolet Blazer to Philadelphia. Fannings was convicted of first-degree murder in 2006, but Stacey’s remains have not been found and the repository status remains open.

If anyone knew Stacey’s movements in May 2004 or has information about locations connected to Alligator, Duncan, or the Blazer, please share what is known.
