Four days after Tammy last spoke with her parents, her blue Chevy Equinox was found abandoned at a gas station on Savanna Street and I-55.
The vehicle had been wiped clean of any fingerprints.
"Whoever had the car, cleaned it thoroughly," said James. "No fingerprints, not even Tammy's fingerprints, were found in the car."
This investigation lead to a terrifying conversation.
A hairdresser named Emma said the family had information they needed to hear. Emma told one of Tammyette's aunts that she gave her cell phone number to a woman who claimed to have information about Tammy's disappearance.
When that call came in, the stranger outlined very disturbing, yet unconfirmed information.
She said no trace of Tammy would ever be found.
The word "acid" came up.
Two aunts confirmed the shocking call they received from a stranger.
"A lady told them they might as well stop looking for their niece because they would never find her," said Joysteen. "Because they used a lot of acid to get rid of the body."
The unknown caller referenced Spaulding's ex-boyfriend and a red truck that was allegedly used to dump her body.
Could a love triangle be connected to Spaulding's mysterious disappearance?
"The relationship she was in, she was pregnant for one guy and he called it off," explained Tammy's mother. "She found out another girl was three months pregnant at the time she lost her baby."
Her parents are now divulging the ex-boyfriend's name.
"Marcus, a guy named Marcus," recalled her father. "I think that's the one who got her pregnant. I'm not sure."
