The Pensacola Police Historic Society

Have you heard the story about the horrific murder of Tonya Etheridge McKinley that took place in Pensacola? Well, dozens of Pensacola Police Officers have heard about it, and a lot of retired officers remember when it happened. The case went unsolved for 35 years, and then…

Tony Adame, an author and investigative journalist, knows more about it than anyone alive. He has studied Tonya’s life, the circumstances surrounding the murder, and the investigation, and he is the guest speaker at the Pensacola Police Historic Society’s monthly meeting!

Tony’s new book, “Chase the Devil,” is for sale on Amazon. Order your copy – I did. It is a fascinating book! You can also catch Tony on Facebook and read more about this terrible but fascinating case.

Here’s a twist…there is a second murder that occurred within the same time frame that looked surprisingly close to Tonya’s.
