I have researched articles from July through December 1992. Below is a list I have put together of construction sites at those times. All of this information has come from "The State" articles. I only included areas around Columbia. We don't know where she is so this list might not mean much, however, I thought it was worth a shot to see what people think. How many or do any of these sites cross match what sites law enforcement searched at the time?
