The Text Messages Revealed in the Heather Elvis Missing Case

A new episode of Disappeared in the Darkness: An ID Mystery airs on Wednesday, May 27 at 9/8c on Investigation Discovery. The episode features the story of Heather Elvis, a woman who went missing in 2013.

Investigation Discovery’s official synopsis for the two-hour episode reads “When police near Myrtle Beach discover an abandoned car at a boat landing, they surmise its owner, twenty-year-old Heather Elvis, has vanished. They soon discover she’s been enmeshed in a love triangle with a married man and led down a path of deceit.”

According to WMBF News, Sidney and Tammy Moorer are currently serving 30-year prison sentences for the kidnapping of Elvis. During their trial, text messages emerged as evidence that Sidney and Heather were linked romantically and Tammy knew about it.

Text Messages Suggested That Tammy Was Contacting Heather From Her Husband Sidney’s Cell Phone

According to ABC 15, texts obtained from Heather and Sidney’s phones showed that the two were in communication. At one point, Sidney texted “Heather you wanted to speak to me earlier, you can call now.”

WMBF News reported that addition text exchanges suggested that Tammy was actually the one texting Heather from Sidney’s phone. During the trial, Will Lynch testified regarding conversations he was able to obtain using software, citing this exchange:

Sidney’s Phone: “What do you want to talk about?”
Heather’s Phone: “I think you’re a little obsessed with me.”
Sidney’s Phone: “Nah, it was a bore.”
Sidney’s Phone: “If you want to speak to me, call now. Otherwise leave me alone forever.”
Heather’s Phone: “Really? So that’s why you’re still childishly texting me from your cheating husband’s phone?”
Sidney’s Phone: “Call the number, it’s me.”
Heather’s Phone: “You call.”
