Summary
In this final installment of our coverage on the case of Zebb Quinn, we follow the investigation as it takes a shocking turn. Nearly fifteen years after Zebb vanished, the name Jason Owens reemerged—this time tied to the brutal murders of Cristie and J.T. Codd and their unborn child.
As investigators dug into Owens' property, they uncovered disturbing evidence: concrete pits, lime, and fragments that raised chilling questions. Was this connected to Zebb? And if so, why has the truth remained buried for so long?
Through court records, news reports, and eyewitness accounts, we trace how Owens' crimes cast new suspicion on his role in Zebb's disappearance—and why answers in this case have remained just out of reach.
Zebb Quinn was only 18 years old when he disappeared from Asheville, North Carolina, in January 2000. His story is one of mystery, grief, and the relentless search for justice.
If you know anything about the disappearance and murder of Zebb Wayne Quinn, please contact the Asheville Police Department at (828) 252-1110 or your local law enforcement office.
