Seven-year-old Angelica Cassandra Livingston, who usually went by Cassandra and often wore her hair in braids, was last seen on June 10, 2006, at the Park Place Apartments on Comanchee Trail in West Columbia, South Carolina, where she lived with her grandmother, Portia Washington. That day both Angelica and Portia disappeared along with Portia’s live-in boyfriend, Kenneth Andrew Lynch, and Portia’s tan 2005 Ford Focus.

Relatives described Portia as dependable and church-going; her sudden silence and a stop in her bill payments after June 2006 prompted alarm. Lynch was later stopped for speeding in El Paso driving the Ford Focus alone, the car appeared lived-in, and Lynch was eventually arrested in Seattle and later found trying to cross into Canada. Lynch did not cooperate with investigators.

Authorities treated the apartment as a crime scene after finding Angelica’s blood smeared on the carpet, some mixed with Lynch’s blood. Lynch was charged in June 2008 with the murders of Angelica and Portia; in May 2012 he was convicted and sentenced to life in prison. The bodies of Angelica Livingston and Portia Washington have never been found.

If anyone knew Angelica, Portia, their routines at Park Place Apartments, or saw the Ford Focus in June 2006, please share what you know.
