Summary

This three-part series on a 1991 Southeast Georgia cold case begins with the victim, Geraldine DeLoach, her large, loving family, and the early life she spent in the tiny town of Register, GA. The DeLoaches have spent the last 30 years trying to puzzle out the mystery of how anyone could have killed Geraldine, whom they called ‘Whoodie’--known widely for her bubbly personality, her joy, and her inclination to give and care for others.
