GEORGETOWN, S.C. (AP) - May 3, 2009 Georgetown County Sheriff Lane Cribb said Saturday that neither
Brittanee Drexel nor her cell phone has been found. Searchers have
spent the past two days using dogs, helicopters, boats and foot
patrols to search for the girl.
Authorities say they concentrated their search about 35 miles
south of Myrtle Beach along the South Santee River. But they turned
up nothing.
Police say the teen was last seen after she left a group of
friends who had traveled to South Carolina from Rochester, N.Y.
Drexel's mother says her impending divorce has caused her daughter
to be depressed.
