New Leads Emerge In Case Of Molino Man Believed To Be Murdered 20 Years Ago
April 14, 2025
New leads have surfaced in the case of a Molino Man that disappeared in 2004 and is now presumed dead, according to the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office, and investigators recently conducted new interviews.
Timothy Allen Lamb was developmentally disabled, legally blind and suffered from a heart condition, according to the ECSO. He lived with his mother until 2003 and then lived with different friends in the Molino area. He did not work and did not drive.
Relatives last communicated with Lamb in 2004 due to “very strained family relationships,” investigators said in 2018.
In 2016, a relative tried to contact Lamb, but discovered that he was nowhere to be found, and he had not been seen by friends in years. He was last known to be living with a friend off Highway 97 in Molino in 2005. In February 2018, investigators said they had reason to believe he was murdered in 2005. A body was never found.
Investigators made the case public in September 2017 in an attempt to obtain more information.
According to the ESCO, new information was recently received about the case, and investigators travelled to Tennessee to pursue new leads. Additional information was not made available.
Search warrants were served in 2005 off Highway 97 at the home of Lamb’s friend, but the search did not produce a body. Additional search warrants were executed, and other properties were searched after owners gave consent. In 2018, deputies said there was concrete evidence of fraud in the case, along with element of foul play, but the statute of limitations passed without arrests.
However, there is no statute of limitations in Florida if the ECSO were to develop a murder suspect.
Anyone that knows anything about Lamb — whether recently or from years ago, the names of his friends, or any other information, is asked to contact the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office at (850) 436-9620 or Crime Stoppers at (850) 433-STOP.

Tim was the son of my Uncle Dan Lamb. hope the case is solved soon.
There is another case in Molino that needs solved, Another anniversary of her death is coming up at months end. Brush the dust from that file and solve both of these cases
Tim and Anna Were cousins.
It is already known to authorities they were still cashing his social security/disability checks. I was 2 years behind Tim in school. From Barrineau Park to Tate and knew him and his family pretty good. I would love nothing more than to see justice brought upon those we all know were involved. Tim was a super sweet guy. Prayers to the family as this can’t be easy.
Alright Andy, it’s time we nip this in the bud.
Look if anyone knows anything the right thing to do is go to ESO.. you’re protecting someone that don’t belong in our community and this guy didn’t deserve to be killed i know the ESO WILL get to the bottom of it its just a matter of time but e1 who knows anything needs to help bc it makes u look like your hiding something !!! Help protect our community do the right thing and get this person off our streets
Can’t believe the case isn’t solved with everyone knowing so much about it.
SW- mnon shared what investigators already know. I don’t know mnon but everything shared in that comment is spot on to what is circulating throughout the community. I also heard they continued cashing his disability checks. It’s just a matter of time and the walls will close in. God will always bring the truth into the light.
@mnon
Maybe you should have shared that with an investigator, directly, instead of on a public forum?

I hope the murder suspect knows their time is drawing near. LEO look into who was cashing Tim’s checks all the years he was missing. I hope it all leads back to who I think it is, a very controlling person, who will try to intimidate when they think you are talking to investigators. I have several theories because a birdie told me the prime suspect(s) made comments “nothing would ever be found.” One theory I have is incineration, in pieces. Just look into who worked around high heat equipment at the time, or had access to personal farm equipment that could dispose of everything across lots of acreage. I went to school with Tim, he didn’t deserve any of this. I think it was an accident, a confrontation that escalated, something bad happened, and a cover-up was done instead of facing wrongful death or manslaughter charges. Yet the checks kept being cashed. hmmmm.
