"Operation Catch a Toe" leads U.S. Marshals to a Texas murder suspect with a distinctive foot
CBSN
In December 2006, just days before Christmas, Tammy Myers vanished. The 29-year-old mother of three had separated from her husband and was living with a new man, William Greer, in a suburb of Houston. Within days of Myers' disappearance, Greer also vanished.
Investigators believed Greer was responsible for Myers' death and spent years hunting the fugitive.
In 2010, Deputy Marshal Cameron Welch of the Southern District of Texas U.S. Marshals Service heard about the case and asked to be assigned. "This guy literally thought that he could victimize not only Tammy, but everybody else that he encountered while he was on the run, and kind of just thumbing his nose in our face," Welch told "48 Hours" correspondent Peter Van Sant in "The Day My Mother Vanished," airing Saturday, May 11 at 10/9c on CBS and streaming on Paramount +.
