Thank you Season of Justice and Central Alabama Crimestoppers (Crimestoppers 215 STOP) for sharing and continued work on Becky’s case!

Today and every day, we remember, Janice "Becky" LaPlant.

Today marks 14 years that have passed with no updates in Becky’s case, but her daughter Tracy will never stop working to bring her mother home. We ask that you continue to share Becky's face and story so that at this time next year, Tracy has answers!

Share Becky’s case directly through: https://seasonofjustice.org/featured/janice-laplant/

Janice LaPlant, better known as Becky, was enjoying a cookout at her apartment complex, the Lincoln Manor Apartments in Lincoln, AL, on July 25, 2011. When the party called for more drinks, she and her former brother-in-law walked to a nearby gas station, where she reportedly ran into another acquaintance and decided to stay behind. Becky hasn't been seen since.

Central Alabama Crimestoppers is offering a $5,000 reward for any information leading to Becky's whereabouts. If you have any information, please call Crimestoppers at (334) 215-STOP or visit 215stop.com to submit a tip online. All tipsters will remain anonymous.

We just want to acknowledge we’ve noticed all who have been resharing Danniella’s case in the last couple weeks, the now 7th year without answers.

As you all likely know, Danniella’s case is very special to us, but she holds a special place in Keri’s heart. So all of that said, and honoring Danniella’s family as well, thank you! Please keep sharing.

If you want to learn more and haven’t listened in yet to her 4-part series on Unforgotten, you can tune into this season (S2 Ep 2 4-part series).

I debated on sharing this news story because of its most foul and disgusting nature. It has sickened all of us at ACCA to the core. But I’m sharing because it’s important to know these people were caught. And, by sharing, it spreads the word and may help other possible victims to come forward and other perpetrators to be discovered. It also may help witnesses become brave and step up to tell law enforcement.

BREAKING NEWS🚨 In Bibb County, Alabama, Authorities have arrested three additional suspects in connection with a disturbing child abuse case involving an underground bunker, bringing the total number of arrests to seven.

Authorities say some of the suspects were parents of the victims.

“The big question is why? He was a young man and it shouldn't happen like that," King said. "If he was the target then it should have been at his home. I just don't know what happened."

Someone in Alpine knows exactly what happened, and it’s time to speak up.

Thank you, Sarah Snyder 🩵
