Found Deceased NC - Shameka Johnston, 28, pregnant, accepted a ride @ gas station, Troy, 13 Oct 2021 *arrest*

[GuyfromCanada]

There’s not a day that goes by that Shameka Johnston doesn’t call one of her sisters to talk, or drop by her mom’s place of work just to say hello.

But the 28-year-old resident of Troy, North Carolina, who is nearly four months pregnant with her first child, hasn’t been seen or heard from since October 13, and her family is extremely worried and concerned for her well-being.

The article states that the two men in the truck were known to Shamake and she accepted a ride from them. How well did she know them, were they friends or just acquaintances? Did the police talk with them?

I would think they were able to interview the 2 men who gave her the ride since it's being reported as "known to Shamake" . I wonder if they're saying they dropped her off somewhere or what is going on there. IMO

12 days she's been gone
I'm not optimistic
who/where are those two that gave her a ride?

 

[MimosaMornings]

So little information.
Does she live alone?
Or with the father to be?
Was she still working at Wendy’s?
Did she have a vehicle?

“We talked at least three times that day,” her mother SR told Dateline, referring to the day Shameka went missing. “For her not to call the next day, well, that’s not like her. And now it’s almost been two weeks. No call. No text. Nothing. All I know is something is wrong.”

[...]

The sisters’ mother told Dateline she remembers October 13 -- the day Shameka went missing -- as a normal day and that her daughter appeared to be happy.

“She came into my job about 7 a.m. saying, ‘hey mama, I just wanted to say hi,’” SR told Dateline. “And then she’d go on about her day.”

Later that evening, Shameka was at the Dollar General with her sister and then at the BP gas station on Albemarle Road. Her sister reported to her family and the police that she saw Shameka talking to two men she knew at the gas station, told her they were giving her a ride, and then got into their truck.

Did they go to her residence to see if she had been there?

Cameras at the BP?

I haven't seen it reported but I would assume both family and LE checked her home.

Could be a camera on the far right side of the building. What do you think?

I think so.

Troy is about 60 miles east of Charlotte.
50 miles south of the Greensboro/High Point area.

Giving her a ride where?

 

[Shamrock1]

The article isn’t clear. Did the two men tell Shameka that they were giving her a ride, or did the two men tell the sister they were giving Shameka a ride?

And a ride where?

 

[HM99]

Looking at her FB, she seems to have sweet friends/sisters but no one is posting on her page about her being missing. (Unless I’m just not able to see them.)

I see posts on families pages which obviously we can't bring here so they are spreading the word which is so important. IMO

 

[Filly]

Obviously this is a close family. Mom, and sisters talk daily. Pop in to see eachother. Shameka would never let them worry.

Dollar General then to BP. Why would she leave her sister? Echoing ride to where?

Really worrisome.

North Carolina man charged with murder after leading police to missing woman’s body

Last week, Eric Buie, one of the men she was last seen with, was taken into custody, according to Chief Atkins.

The chief told Dateline that the two have known each other for a long time, but did not elaborate on the details of their relationship.

After multiple interviews with police, Buie told police on Thursday where they could find Shameka’s body. Police responded to an area of Horne Road at 7:19 p.m. that same day and located her body about 20 yards off the road. Buie was charged with Shameka’s murder.

This makes me so angry. Why? Why?

 

[swanniee11]

So sad! God bless her, her unborn child and her family and friends. What a piece of ........ IMO

Well, that may open a whole can of worms. Fact is she's dead and he's being charged for it! IMO
