On the morning of Dec. 15, 1999, FBI agent Mark Post was deep into his morning routine — oatmeal, coffee and making sure his three boys were up and getting ready for school.
There was nothing special on his work agenda — just another Wednesday. Another bunch of paperwork. Another eight hours supervising the four agents who worked for him in the FBI’s satellite office in Jackson, Tenn.
Post had the television on for background noise. He walked by it, suit coat in hand, just as Theodry Carruth, the mother of Carolina Panthers wide receiver Rae Carruth, was being interviewed about her son’s disappearance.
