On this week’s episode we interview retired Chattanooga Police Department Homicide Inspector Tim Carroll about his investigation of the 1978 murder of William B. Tatum and the serious wounding of his girlfriend Nancy Hilton.
In the summer of 1978, Nancy Hilton, 18, and William Tatum, 20, enjoyed a movie date at the Martin Theatre in Downtown Chattanooga, Tennessee. Following the film, they decided to grab a bite at a nearby Pizza Hut. After spending about 20 minutes inside, they left the restaurant and headed towards their car in the parking lot. Tragedy struck as they approached their vehicle -a sudden shotgun blast hit Tatum, fatally injuring him. Hilton was also wounded but managed to survive the attack. The crime scene investigation uncovered two 12-gauge shotgun shells, but no further leads were found, and the case went cold.
Seventeen years later, a chilling phone call was received at the Chattanooga Police Homicide Division, reigniting the case. On the other end of the line was a sinister voice, stirring up old wounds and raising new questions about the unsolved mystery. This is Just One More Question.
