Stanley Oscar Webb, 53, disappeared from Sevier County, Tennessee in the fall of 2000. He was last seen on October 27, 2000, at his sister’s store in Sevierville and was reported missing when he did not return home, which family described as out of character.

A 1998 Dodge Dakota pickup registered to Webb was later found burned in neighboring Monroe County; the truck was completely destroyed by fire and Webb was not located at the scene. Reports have also tied Webb to a Mexican drug cartel distribution ring, a detail that introduced the possibility his disappearance involved organized-crime connections. The Sevier County Sheriff’s Department has kept the case open and the family has issued public appeals, but the burned truck and other leads have not produced definitive answers.

If anyone knew Stanley, knew about his movements in late October 2000, or has information about the burned Dodge Dakota, please come forward.
