I keep looking for an update but so far nothing....
AL AL - Kimberly Whitton, 36, & Haleigh Culwell, 11, Section, 21 June 2007
- Thread starter Rle7
- Start date
Friends of a missing mother and daughter are taking extraordinary steps to make sure their disappearance isn't forgotten.
Kim Whitton and 11-year-old Haleigh Culwell of Jackson County were last seen June 21st.
Kim and Haleigh's friends are rallying the community, a banning together of sorts.
Their goal is to raise awareness in hopes of bringing an end to this ordeal.
Purple is Kim's favorite color.
Now it's being used as a reminder of Kim her daughter, Haleigh's disappearance.
"If you can put a purple ribbon on your mailbox, on your car antenna, wear one on your shirt. Whatever, whatever it may be, just to remember them," says Kristy Wright.
Kim's co-workers at Cloverdale Manor in Scottsboro started the campaign.
They're the ones that reported them missing and now they want to help bring them home.
They've also turned to the internet.
"A few of us got together and created a Myspace page," says Wright.

A Section man whose wife and stepdaughter have been missing for more than a month was indicted today in U.S. District Court of being a felon in possession of firearms.
Barry Van Whitton, 38, was indicted because he is a convicted felon and law enforcement authorities found several firearms in his possession during a July 12 search of his property, U.S. Attorney Alice H. Martin said in a news release.
Authorities found a Columbia 12-gauge shotgun, a Universal M-1 .30-caliber semi-automatic carbine, a Winchester 30-30 lever action rifle, a Crickett .22-caliber rifle and a Savage Arms .22-caliber rifle during the search, Martin said.

A little late and off topic, but here is the info on Chief Morrison's daughter. I couldn't find a separate thread for her.

Friends and co-workers of Kim Whitton will hold a candlelight prayer service Saturday in Scottsboro for her and her 11-year-old daughter, Haleigh Culwell.
~snip~
Wright said she and other co-workers are organizing Saturday's event, which will begin at 6 p.m. at the Goosepond Colony Amphitheater. "We don't want people to forget," she said.
Wright said the event will include music, free refreshments and the release of balloons at sunset.
Donations will also be accepted to help Kim Whitton's family to defray costs in their search and any legal expenses, she said.

Whitton was arrested July 12th after his property was searched in connection with his wife and step-daughter's disappearance.
Kim Whitton and 11-year-old Haleigh Culwell were last seen June 21st at their home in Jackson County.
Barry Whitton has been named a suspect in their disappearance.
He was also a suspect in his first wife's murder.
Michelle Whitton was found beaten to death in a shallow grave in January of 1998.
To this day the murder is unsolved.
A little more than a year after Michelle was murdered, Barry Whitton remarried.

Haleigh's 12th birthday was yesterday (Jan 25).
I can't find anything new. Does anyone know of any news?

Thanks, petra. This case has bothered me for a long time. I hope there is some news on the direction by April.
Me too, CP.
It has to be just a bloody nightmare for their family, friends and love ones.
Yes, hopefully some firm answers in April.
