***UPDATE***
Nyema White has returned home safely. Thank you everyone!!!

For those inquiring in abundance, this was not Ms. Nyema White. The post merely mentions her as being missing, that is the only comparison to this other case where Anderson was recovered.

Please go to our Facebook and share the post to give more coverage in hopes of locating Nyema safe. Thank you!

SPECULATION GROWS AS TIP LEADS AIKEN COUNTY COPS TO HUMAN REMAINS IN BLACKVILLE

Authorities have uncovered human remains off a highway in Barnwell County, with some residents speculating on who it may be.

The discovery brought renewed attention to the missing-persons cases of Krystal Channel Anderson (left), a 30-year-old mother of four from Wagener who went missing on August 20, 2022, and 18-year-old Nyema Askew White (right), a Silver Bluff High School senior who disappeared on May 4, 2026, in New Ellenton.

The Aiken County Sheriff’s Office confirmed they were “acting on information” when investigators located the site just off S.C. Highway 37 in Blackville. They just haven't said who the tip was from, though the information comes as Anderson's boyfriend is scheduled to stand trial for her murder, without a body.

Below: What we know.
