Cold Case Spotlight

Update: Johnny Wayne Johnson was arrested in the murder of Sherry Prather in November 2016. In April 2018, Johnson was sentenced to 20.5 years in prison after pleading guilty to the charges. On October 12, 2012, 43-year-old Sherry Prather was seen talking to two men on motorcycles at Boots & Bottle Tavern on New Berlin Road around 2:20am in Jacksonville, Florida. Surveillance video shows her getting on the back of a motorcycle but she never made it home. A month later a missing persons detective, acting on a tip, found remains, later identified as Sherry Prather, in the woods off Braddock Road about 15 miles west of where the victim was last seen. Anyone with information can contact the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office Homicide Unit at (904) 630-0500. Those who wish to remain anonymous and possibly receive a cash reward up to $3,000, can call Crime Stoppers at (866) 845-TIPS (8477).
