Missing South Carolina Girl and Daughter of Anti-Violence Activist Found Dead; Suspects Arrested
A teenage girl from South Carolina was found dead in a wooded area on Thursday after being reported as missing since early April, authorities said.
The body of 15-year-old Sanaa Amenhotep—who is the daughter of Brick City Peace Collective member Sharif Malik Amenhotep—was located in Lexington County following a three-week search, Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott said during a press briefing.
“I can’t tell you how tragic and sad this case is, to lose a 15-year-old like we lost this one,” Lott said. “Unfortunately we didn’t bring her home the way we wish that we could.”
