On April 17th, 1988, the skeletal remains of Laverne Mack were located in wooded area at US 441 and Interstate 10. After the remains were identified as Mack's, people had been interviewed, but it did not lead to identifying any suspects. She was reported missing to the Lake City Police Department on August 11th, 1987 by an unidentified individual.
Despite the suspicious nature of Mack's death, the Medical Examiner's Office could not determine the cause of death; however, the CCSO believes that foul play was involved.
