Police seriously considering foul play
Fairfield Police Lt. Kevin Haddix says police are now seriously considering foul play is involved in the disappearance of Katelyn Markham.
Markham, of Fairfield, was last seen by her fiancee, John Carter, the night of Aug. 13. When he didn't hear from her the next day, he reported her missing.
The case was featured on CNN's Nancy Grace on Thursday night. Grace spoke with John Carter over the phone. She ask him about the text he received from Katelyn the night she went missing - a picture of a picture.
"I don't know they were up in her room, you know she liked to send me pictures all the time, she always has," Carter told Grace.
