Cold Case Spotlight

Vera Sullivan worked as the head maitre de at the Seminole Club in Downtown Jacksonville, Florida. On March 3, 1987, she never made it there. Vera’s boss told police she was a dependable employee.

She was wearing a black skirt, white blouse, white shoes and gold earrings. On March 22, Vera’s body was found, wrapped in fabric and lying in a wooded area behind Clantzel Brown Park, near the intersection of Moncrief Road and Golfair Boulevard.
