Franklin Floyd story to be shown on Court TV - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Kane · 07-09-2006, 09:37 PM

The TV show The Investigators will be airing an episode about Franklin Delano Floyd tomorrow night (July 10) on Court TV at 10 PM (Eastern Time).

He was the man who kidnapped Michael Hughes from school in 1994. Prior to the abduction, a DNA test disproved Floyd's claim that Michael was his biological son.

Michael's mother had such a mysterious background that her real name has never been discovered. However, she was abducted by Franklin Floyd sometime in the early or mid-1970s. She had numerous aliases, including Sharon Marshall, Suzanne Davis, and Tonya Hughes. She died in a suspicious hit-and-run accident in 1990.

When UM ran a segment about the case in late 1995, Floyd was incarcerated for kidnapping Michael Hughes. He is now on Florida's death row for an unrelated murder.

Oh thanks for the reminder Kane-I remember this case it's still such strange one to me, so I can't wait to see what they say about this on that show.

I love it when CourtTV or A&E do an hour show that was featured on a UM segment. 10-12 minutes don't do most cases enough justice.

Well, it goes without saying that UM was never meant to do just one case per episode (although the 90-minute Alcatraz story was an exception).

Huh...it's odd, because according to my guide on my tv, it says that at 9pm (I'm central)...it's going to be a show called Inside? That's not it...

Um...durr. You're going to have to excuse me. I'm home from school, and haven't found a job...so time and dates - not really keeping track of those anymore lol.

It's repeating right now if anyone is interested!
