"We have several people, including volunteers, looking at evidence and following up on leads," Capt. Kerry Orpinuk of the Daytona Beach Police Department said. "But there are no leads that point in any one direction."
The other Daytona Beach victims:
▪A construction worker in January 2006 discovered the body of Julie Ann Green, 34, on an access road off LPGA Boulevard, a remote area near Interstate 95.
▪The body of Iwana Patton, 35, was found in February 2006 in a wooded area just east of I-95. The body of the fourth victim, Stacey Gage, was found in January 2008 near an abandoned church less than a mile from I-4.
