A Family Still Fighting: The Unsolved Murder of Eric Nelams

On the morning of September 26, 2003, 32-year-old Army veteran and father Eric Nelams stepped outside his Phenix City, Alabama home to head to work—just like he did every other day. Minutes later, he was gunned down in his own carport. Despite witnesses, potential suspects, and a possible motive, Eric’s murder remains unsolved more than two decades later. In this episode, we explore the tragic and frustrating case of Eric Nelams—an honorably discharged veteran, a devoted father, and a man who was deeply loved by his family and community. We examine the suspicious circumstances surrounding his murder, including an alleged fraud scheme, questionable behavior from those closest to him, and early missteps by law enforcement that may have cost investigators valuable time and evidence. Eric’s family, including his sister Cathy and mother Annie, have never stopped fighting for answers. From billboards and petitions to monthly emails to police, their pursuit of justice is as strong today as it was in 2003. 📢 How you can help: Eric’s case remains open but unsolved. His family is petitioning to have the Alabama Attorney General’s Cold Case Unit take over the investigation. You can support their fight for justice by: Signing the Change.org petition Sharing Eric’s story Following @justice.for.eric.nelams on Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter/X Calling Alabama Crime Stoppers at 334-215-STOP with any tips—even if they seem small 🎧 Subscribe & follow Weird True Crime for more real stories, real people, and cases that refuse to be forgotten. 📩 Have a case you want us to cover?
