In late February of 2024, 46-year-old Samantha Tolbert vanished from Carroll County, Georgia, a rural area in western Georgia, along the Alabama state line. At first, Samanthaās absence didnāt raise an alarm. She kept in touch with her daughter, but it wasnāt unusual for some time to pass between calls. That all changed on March 7, 2024, when deputies from the Carroll County Sheriffās Office responded to a call in Tyus, a small community in Carroll County. There, they discovered Samanthaās ex-husband was deceased. What stood out immediately was that the vehicle he had driven to the scene wasnāt his; it was Samanthaās truck, but she was nowhere to be found.Investigators attempted to contact Samantha because she was the registered owner of the vehicle, but all efforts to reach her were unsuccessful. Friends and family they contacted said they hadnāt heard from her either. In that moment, the troubling truth came into focus: not only was Samanthaās ex-husband dead, but Samantha herself was missing. Suddenly, two stories collided, one ending in death, the other vanished. With Samanthaās ex-husband no longer alive, investigators were left with a haunting mystery: what really happened in those final days, and what secrets did he take with him?If you have any information about the disappearance of Samantha Tolbert, please contact Investigator Amber Cardell with the Carroll County Sheriffās Office at 770-830-5916 or email
