Tashanda Bethea was an 18-year-old student at Barnwell High School who disappeared in March 1990 from Barnwell, South Carolina. Her body was found floating in a local lake on April 1, 1990; investigators determined she had been raped and strangled.

Authorities questioned Henry Louis Wallace because of a connection through their mothers and his local presence as a former classmate and radio disc jockey, but he was not charged in Barnwell at that time. Wallace later confessed to multiple murders and was convicted in Mecklenburg County for several killings, though he was not tried for Bethea’s death. Bethea is buried in Hope Memorial Park in Barnwell.

What information do readers from Barnwell or anyone who knew Tashanda or her circle in 1990 have that could shed light on her final days?
