Unsolved Case files of Jamison Family D*aths

The Jamison family d*aths happened on or after October 8, 2009, when Bobby Jamison, his wife Sherilynn, and their daughter Madyson mysteriously disappeared in Eufaula, Oklahoma, United States. They were thinking of buying a forty-acre piece of land near Red Oak, around 30 miles (48 km) away from Eufaula, at the time they went missing. In November 2013, their suspected remains were discovered, and the Oklahoma medical examiner confirmed their identities on July 3, 2014. The cause of their d*aths was not determined, and the circumstances of their disap-pearance still remain a mystery.

Background

Bobby and Sherilyn Jamison, a couple in their early thirties, had been married for eight years. They lived in Eufaula, Oklahoma, along with their six-year-old daughter Madyson. The family had faced financial struggles and filed for bankruptcy in 2008. Despite these challenges, they were excited about the prospect of buying a property in the Sans Bois Mountains and building a new home there.

Disap-pearance

The initial investigation into the Jamison family’s disap-pearance suggested that they likely didn’t disap-pear willingly. After they went missing, their pickup truck was found abandoned in Latimer County, Oklahoma, a short distance south of Kinta, just a few days later. Although the family’s bodies were not located, their malnourished dog, Maisie, was found inside the truck. Along with Maisie, the family’s ID cards, wallets, mobile phones, a GPS system, and approximately US$32,000 in cash were also discovered. It’s worth noting that the Jamisons were not known for carrying such large amounts of cash with them.

Jamison Family truck

On the day the Jamison family left their house, their home surveillance system captured footage of them making multiple silent trips between their vehicle and home while carefully packing to leave. Observers described their movements as being in a “trancelike” state. During the video, Sherilynn was seen placing a brown briefcase inside the vehicle. This briefcase became a significant point of interest, and former Sheriff Beauchamp stated that he believed it could be a crucial clue. However, both the briefcase and Sherilynn’s handgun have never been found to this day.

Discovery

Jamison Family

Unsolved case files

In November 2013, more than four years after the Jamison family went missing, two hunters discovered skeletal remains in a remote area of Latimer County. The remains were located less than 3 miles (4.8 km) from where the family’s abandoned pickup truck had been found.

Although it was widely believed that these remains belonged to the missing family, the Oklahoma medical examiner’s office had to conduct anthropological and forensic pathological testing to confirm their identities. On July 3, 2014, officials officially confirmed that the remains were indeed those of the Jamison family. Unfortunately, due to the advanced state of decomposition, the cause of d*ath could not be determined.

Theories

Before the remains were discovered, various theories emerged regarding the Jamison family’s disap-pearance. Some speculated that they had staged their own d*aths, entered witness protection, were victims of foul play, or had d*ed by group su*cide. Prior to their disap-pearance, Bobby Jamison was involved in a contentious legal battle with his father, Bob Dean Jamison.

Bobby claimed that his father had threatened the family and even hit him with a vehicle in November 2008. He also alleged that his father was connected to methamphetamine and criminal activities. However, the police did not consider Bob Dean Jamison as a suspect in the family’s disap-pearance.

Another theory that gained traction was that the Jamisons might have been involved in drug dealing. Investigators pointed to the significant amount of cash found in their truck and noted the unusual behavior displayed by Bobby and Sherilynn before they vanished. Additionally, there were reports that the family had told their local pastor, Gary Brandon, about seeing spirits inside their home. Bobby had also allegedly claimed to be reading from The Satanic Bible on separate occasions.
