On the morning of September 16, 2002, two members of a Heflin, Alabama household were found stabbed to death inside their Sugar Hill Road home. Six-year-old Dalton Rollins and his 23-year-old mother, Monica Rollins, who was 36 weeks pregnant, were both killed; the assault is believed to have induced premature labor that resulted in the death of Monica’s unborn third son. A 2-year-old child in the home was found physically unharmed after hiding in a closet.

Investigators collected DNA, fingerprints, and fibers from the scene, but no suspect was publicly identified for years. The case remained a cold double homicide for nearly two decades, though it was reopened and evidence was resubmitted to state and private forensic laboratories before recent investigative activity.

Does anyone from Heflin or the surrounding area remember unusual activity on or around September 16, 2002, or have information about acquaintances of the family that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
