Sharon Prince is still missing in Sumter, 1987

Sharon Prince was last seen in November 1987 in Sumter, South Carolina. At the time, Prince was living with relatives, having recently moved out of a residence she had shared with her boyfriend. Prince’s brother-in-law woke early on that fall morning to get ready for work and noticed that Sharon was not in her bedroom. The door was open, and Prince was nowhere to be found. It was almost as if she had gotten ready (clothes on) to either go to the store or meet someone, possibly sometime in the early morning hours.

Sharon Prince has not been seen since. I know her family wants closure in the case.

Someone knows what happened to Sharon Prince. Prince is an African-American female, 5’5” tall, and weighs 130 pounds.
