Chattanooga's local CBS station, WDEF-TV led their 6:00 newscast with the story of Carol, a Marion County woman, saying she had seen Gail at 3:00 p.m. near the Big Fork/Insurance Bluff area the day she went missing. Carol, who gave only her first name, said she didn't want to further identify herself because she has seen a suspicious car near her house. She said she recognized Gail when she saw a picture of her on TV.
She called the authorities in Sequatchie County (yet another close-by, bordering county) and they took a while to call her back. Carol said she saw Gail and another woman driving by in the jeep. She remembered the car because it was different from most that would have been in that area. She said the two women in the jeep had different, very strange reactions. She said Gail, the driver, "slowed down very slow, and instead of glancing at us like a normal person would, she looked DIRECTLY at us so we would see her whole face." She described Gail as looking dazed, like a doe in the headlights, like she wanted to say something, but didn't. The other woman would look away from them the three times they passed.
Carol said Gail stopped by a truck and she hopes someone else will come forward with more information. Carol hoped anyone else seeing Gail "will tell what they know -- it might not be much, but it may be another piece of the puzzle that will help the Police find her."
