As for a trial date, Solicitor Jimmy Richardson says the case has never been formally set.
He says the office tries to project the best they can, but can only control the state's readiness.
His guess is February for the soonest possible trial date.

Editorial | Heather Elvis secrecy similar to lack of transparency in Ferguson

The common denominator between Michael Brown and Heather Elvis is not race, gender or violence.

It’s government secrecy.

Racial angst and anger over Brown’s death surely drove the pillaging and plundering of Ferguson, but police secrecy fanned the flames.

Despite a grand jury review of mountains of evidence, details of which are now public, police hiding the facts as the case initially unfolded only made Ferguson folks angrier. Disclosing them later on didn’t quell the angst.

The lack of transparency in the Heather Elvis case has been chilling. Long before there was even a gag order, police were overly secretive and reticent to say anything meaningful. Police redacted the original police report in such a way that it suggested someone who’s never been charged was a person of interest. The media was needlessly whisked away from Peachtree Boat landing for an organized search of the Waccamaw River.

Horry County police investigating the Heather Elvis case seized 13 cell phones, six computers, and various financial records after executing search warrants at the homes of Sidney and Tammy Moorer and their parents, according to documents obtained by Waccamaw Publishers.

Horry County police also seized $10,600 in cash and two shotguns from the Moorers’ home at 8786 Highway 814 in February, but police returned the weapons a day later, documents show.
Police took two swabs from a shotgun, but the warrants don’t specify from which shotgun the swab was taken.

As a result of the search warrants, police took Sidney and Tammy Moorer into custody on Feb. 21.

"Heather's roommate, Brianna Warrelmann, joined the family at Thursday night's vigil. Brianna hasn't said anything over the last year.

However, Thursday night she revealed the details of her last conversation with Heather.

Warrelmann was out of town the night Heather disappeared. She said she was visiting family in Florida, but they were on the phone late at night. She said Heather was telling her about Sidney.

"She told me that he told her that he left his wife and he wanted to see her, and that he missed her and he wanted to be with her. And my immediate instinct was don't do it - don't do it. You've been doing so good. She hadn't talked to him, she hadn't talked about him," Warrelmann explained."
