Where was Doris was last seen? Her sister said Doris was on her way home, but she doesn't specifically say where she was coming from when she talked to her. Did the guy in the white truck say where he drove Doris? The Mosby Court neighborhood (Mosby and P St.) appears to be about 15 - 20 mins. away from the Legacy Inn (5252 Airport Square Lane). Did she leave the Inn to head toward Mosby Court? What's the address for the apartment near the bus stop that Doris was supposedly last seen walking into? Is it the Venable St. location? Investigators need to sort through exactly where Doris was last seen so people can know where to search, imo.

Then she called me later that day and said she was on her way home and she never made it home.” Investigators said Doris was last seen walking into an apartment near that bus stop.

"My sister would not abandon her children or cut off communication with us like that," Yvonne Brown told Crime Insider Jon Burkett and the Reopen the case Foundation,

Doris Brown had fallen on hard times according to Yvonne. She had been known to dabble with drugs and hop from motel to motel in Central Virginia.

"I pray every day that someone will come clean and say something," said Brown.

Doris Brown

The family tells the Reopen the Case Foundation that they've come to grips with the grim reality that Doris is probably not alive. However, that doesn't mean they're giving up and part of the reason they reached out was to be given the voice and platform to let the public know they expect accountability for those responsible.

If you have information that can help Detective Clarence Key close this cold case, call 833-RTCFNVA or email the organization at [email protected].
