okay... I really hope that isn't BD. But if the report specifically stated 'remains' as opposed to a 'body' that would indicate the decedent had been dead for weeks, probably months... which points to Brittanee.
are there any other missing people out of SC or the region that this could be? How would B's cell phone have gotten to Georgetown/McClellanville? if the remains are Brittanee's, could it be that the perp took her clothes and purse off her body, buried/hid the body, then took the clothes and purse containing the cell phone with him (perhaps his residence is in the area of the pings)? hmmm
Now I'm curious if any RSO's in the area of B's cell phone pings were checked out.
If the remains aren't Brittanee's, I still have hope in this case being solved b/c DD does. I'll comb through the media reports on the MBPD website and edit if I find anything of interest.
Edit - There have been 2 other disturbances at the motel where the remains were found. It is a Super 8 motel.

& the human remains call.
I looked into the motel a little and it was described as in a "rough/scary part of town" by a guest, and they mentioned police frequenting the area. There are a lot of prostitution calls on the highway 17 bypass and the streets surrounding it. Looks like a hotbed for criminal activity.
Seems like the remains are more likely to be a prostitute or a drug dealer... imo.
I wish we had some more info.
