TN TN - Timothy White, 38, Palmer, 15 Sept 1999

I am trying to help my mother-in-law find her missing baby brother Tim of 10 years. She is getting up in age and cries for him all the time. She misses him dearly and needs some closure.

We have heard about three different horror stories as to what might have happened to him as to him being dead, but we just need some closure. I believe he's still out there somewhere and she does too deep down despite all the stories.

They've called TBI and the FBI and America's most wanted with John Walsh. His story aired on there, but it brought no real leads.

One story was that three men stuck him full of acid-filled needles, shot him up and then put him in a barrel of acid on Cordell Mountain in Grundy County. Another is that someone was suppose to have hit him in the head with a concrete block and buried him. Still another is that some boy in Dunlap was suppose to have killed him and buried him in a cave near the railroad track in Sequatchie County.

The sheriff's office didn't seem to help much there. He disappeared before and they found him in a Florida jail under a different alias or name. The last time he was seen was in Tracy City walking in a field.

His name is Timothy Dale White. He was born in Altamont and grew up in Grundy county. His birthday is March 18, 1961.

If he was murdered we would like to know and at least bring his body back for a decent burial or at least have some closure. I have written Oprah, Sylvia Brown and tried to get hold of America's Most Wanted again recently, but haven't had much luck.

Please help us as we are very desperate. There is a reward for information leading up to Tim White. If you have any information, please contact Gina Whitman....

Details of Disappearance
White was last seen in Palmer, Tennessee sometime in September 1999. He never picked up his government-issued benefits check for the month of October, and has never been heard from again.

Authorities believe foul play was involved in his case. His family has heard many different rumors about how he was killed and what happened to his remains; one theory is that he was murdered after going to pick up a guitar at a person's residence. His case remains unsolved.

This case was recently reopened or rather, brought back to active investigation by Grundy County SO. Supposedly there's been some new leads brought to their attention.

“We believe the leads we have now will push us in the right direction to get this case solved. While I cannot divulge what those leads are, I believe it is safe to say that foul play was involved. I also think there is still someone out there that knows what happened that could help bring closure to this case for Tim and his family,” explained Sheriff Shrum.
