This is so sad to me that after all this time her family still has no closure. Someone somewhere knows something what if this was your family. I am from this area and you never really see or hear anything about it especially if it is an older case I think this should be in every weekly paper we have as well as social media so that whomever is responsible for it will have that reminder that there is not one day that goes by she is not thought about being found

The Vanished Podcast just released an episode about Felicia's disappearance.
EPISODE 338: Felicia Cochran — The Vanished Podcast

26-year-old Felicia Martin disappeared from Pell City, Alabama, on June 11, 1992. Felicia's mother spoke to her about her plans and saw her leave home around 6 PM. Then, Felicia was seen arguing with someone in the parking lot of a local hair salon. The people at the salon knew Felicia and were concerned enough to call 911. When the police got there, Felicia was gone, and she was never seen or heard from again. Hours later, a passerby found Felicia's car burning on a rural road in Talladega County, Alabama. Felicia's family felt like they knew who was responsible for her disappearance. However, nearly 30 years later, Felicia is still missing, and many questions remain.

If you have any information about the disappearance of Felicia Cochran, please contact the Pell City Police Department at (205) 884-3334.

Wow, what a sad case. I feel like her family has been failed by LE on this one. Given the 911 call on the day of her disappearance and documented stalking, there seems to be a decent amount of evidence. I hope they one day get the justice and closure they need and deserve. MOO

Listening to her mom on the podcast broke my heart...

Felicia Cochran: “I only got to experience her for 10 years,” her daughter Brandi Martin told me this week.

Felicia has been missing since 1992. More than three decades.

Brandi remembers her mom as being quiet and gentle and loving to read. A woman who had dreamed of a job involving travel, but who had instead accepted a job managing a Hardee’s restaurant, so she could be present for her children.

She was last seen outside of a beauty salon in Pell City, Ala. Then her abandoned car was found burned by the side of the road.
Felicia will be nearly 60 years old if she is still alive. Brandi said she thinks of her mother every day. She still wants to know what happened.
