Brandy Renee Hanna was 32 and lived in Charleston, South Carolina, when she was last heard from on May 20, 2005. She finished a restaurant shift at about 3:00 p.m., accepted a ride home from an acquaintance, spoke with her mother at 5:50 p.m., exchanged texts at 8:00 p.m. and 10:19 p.m., and did not answer the door when a friend arrived for a planned shopping trip at 10:30 p.m. The friend’s visit is the last confirmed contact.

When family entered her Florida Avenue apartment days later they found no signs of forced entry or a struggle. Personal belongings, including money and clothing, were still inside; only her cell phone was missing and turned off. Friends and family say Brandy was a shy homebody who did not own a car and would not have disappeared voluntarily. A witness later reported seeing her get into a red van.

Investigators focused on two former partners, one of whom has since died, and another who later admitted to giving false statements and misleading tips. No one has been charged. What information do readers have about Brandy’s movements in Charleston on May 20, 2005, or about red vans seen that night?
