case report:

James was last seen in Montgomery, Alabama on November 23, 1998. He had an argument with his mother and left her home angrily. His car was found broken down on Interstate 65 near Evergreen, Alabama, over 80 miles from his mother's home, later that day. Witnesses say they saw James make a telephone call at a nearby convenience store. has never been heard from again. He was carrying somewhere between $6,000 and $14,000 in cash on him when he disappeared; a married girlfriend had allegedly given him the money so he could move away and start a new life.
Authorities initially believed James traveled to Florida or to Mobile, Alabama after his disappearance and sought work in the construction industry, but now he is considered a probable homicide victim. He has a criminal record and once served time in prison for burglary. His case remains unsolved.

(Note: on the NamUs profile there are several pictures of George, they appear to be family photos and one in which he is a boy of 9 yrs old, that touched my heart. Prayers for his family. They must miss him so much.)

Come home soon.

George's mother tells her story, complete with names and details:

We know who killed him. We know he is dead. My sons and I were close. Some years before we met their adoptive dad (my husband) we lived in a car. We have seen some very rough times. My son would have contacted one of us were he alive. We have been told the same story, no variations in the story from countless people who were around at that time.

22-year-old George James was last seen by his family on November 23, 1998. He argued with his mother at her Millbrook, Alabama, home and stormed off. Something seemed to be weighing heavily on George, like he needed to escape some sort of danger. George’s mother, Tillis, was confused by this interaction but never imagined this would be the last time she would ever see her son. As the days passed with no word from George, Tillis reported him missing. And since that day, she has never stopped searching for her son.
