Shelton Sanders was 25 and a University of South Carolina student when he vanished from Columbia, South Carolina, on the evening of June 19, 2001. He spent the day in classes and working as a computer systems manager at the university medical school, met a friend and former roommate, Mark Anthony Richardson, to plan a bachelor party, called his family around 9:00 p.m. to say he would be late, and was last officially seen about 9:51 p.m. at an Embassy Suites with Richardson. After visiting several hotels they went to Richardson’s home on Olympia Avenue, the last known location for Shelton. His credit cards and cell phone were never used after his disappearance.

In April 2003 Shelton’s 1988 Oldsmobile Regency was found abandoned in the Greenbrier Apartments parking lot in Northeast Columbia; authorities believe it had been there since June 2001. The Richland County Sheriff’s Department subsequently upgraded the investigation to a homicide. In October 2005 Richardson was arrested and charged with Shelton’s murder; investigators say a neighbor reported hearing three gunshots from Richardson’s residence the night Shelton disappeared, and cell phone records placed Richardson near where the car was found.

Does anyone have information about Shelton’s movements on June 19, 2001, or recall seeing his car in the Greenbrier area?
