Andrene Claudette Stewart, 41, was found dead in a shallow grave in Choppee, South Carolina, on February 18, 2023. Her remains were discovered alongside 57-year-old Melvin Wise; both had been reported missing from the Dunbar community of Georgetown County after traveling from the Bronx to visit relatives in late 2022. The Georgetown County Coroner confirmed identities, and autopsies determined both victims died of gunshot wounds, classifying their deaths as homicides.

Arrests followed: on March 23, 2023, Patricia Wise, 52, and Wilbur Lang, 25, were charged with accessory after the fact, obstruction of justice, criminal conspiracy, and desecration of human remains; a judge denied bond for both. A later arrest on November 7, 2023, brought charges against 32-year-old Lavorn Hakeem Johnson for two counts of murder, desecration of a corpse and related firearm counts.

Does anyone have information about Stewart’s trip to Georgetown County or her last known contacts while visiting family?
