This case is ridiculously confusing and makes very little sense, but I think I've made some headway.
- 70 miles away from the 7-Eleven would place the car in around Modoc, SC, where there's a campground, trails, etc. by driving.
- However, 70 miles from the 7-Eleven "as the crow flies" would put her at the border of South Carolina/Georgia.
- Hickory Knob State Park was searched based on a tip. That is quite far away from Abbeville, Augusta, and the general area of McCormick County where the car was probably found.
- inputting the 7-Eleven address to Abbeville is 29.4 mi. Driving directions to arrive there on a Sunday by 8:15 p.m. would mean she had to leave right away and had no breaks or meandering routes. i stress that a ping does not mean she was in the precise area, but was at least somewhat nearby.
- It was reported she made a right-hand turn out of the station, but the logical routes to head in that direction would have her turning left.
- If her cell phone did ping near Abbeville, and she was there, most likely it seems she'd have taken State Route 205 and then made her way down through some really rural roads to (somehow) reach the road signed as 48/311/627/413 before heading down SC-201.
- Again, i want to stress to not over-value this info, we would need a ping tower map to figure out if she on that road or on a parallel road that could have pinged that tower. She may not have been driving, but since the cell phone was found with the car, it's logical that at least her car was on that road.
- I could really use a local's voice on sanity checking if this route is doable or logical, especially at night, and in an area that her family says she has never been to.
- Being this far down is pretty close to Augusta, so it's not too much of a stretch when LE says that highway cameras spotted her car.
Again, I want to reiterate that the map may contain errors and is very speculative based on very incomplete information.
