These sources chronicle the harrowing criminal history of Franklin Delano Floyd and the tragic life of Suzanne Marie Sevakis. Floyd abducted Suzanne and her siblings in the 1970s while their mother was briefly incarcerated, subsequently raising Suzanne under various aliases before eventually marrying her. Known by names such as Sharon Marshall and Tonya Hughes, Suzanne died in a suspicious 1990 hit-and-run, after which Floyd kidnapped her son, Michael Hughes, at gunpoint from an elementary school. Legal documents and investigative reports confirm that Floyd later confessed to murdering Michael and was also sentenced to death for the 1989 killing of Cheryl Ann Commesso. Through DNA testing and the work of journalists like Matt Birkbeck, Suzanne’s true identity was finally restored decades after her death. The combined texts provide a comprehensive look at the systemic failures, forensic breakthroughs, and profound human suffering associated with this complex decades-long mystery.
