I hope law enforcement has learned a lesson from Kevin Hamby, who went missing from an area about an hour away from Sevierville. He was found just outside the search area years later.

These photos appear to be from the day he went missing. There is a dog following, has the dog returned or is he/she missing too?

There are a lot of bears in that area. I hope he didn’t run into a problem with with a mom with cubs! Does anyone know if he had a gun with him?
