South Carolina, October 5, 2025

News Summary

South Carolina is grieving after the recent discoveries of missing individuals. Jenny Gore Bruton was safely located, while Harrison Radden was found deceased. The community also continues to seek answers regarding Shaniece Harris, who has been missing since 2017. These events highlight the emotional complexities surrounding cases of missing persons.

South Carolina is a community in mourning following the recent discoveries of individuals who had gone missing in the state. The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department successfully located a missing woman, Jenny Gore Bruton, aged 49. After a public appeal for assistance, Bruton was found safe and reunited with her family on Friday afternoon.

Bruton was reported missing on Tuesday afternoon after being last seen leaving her office on Ballantyne Village Way. At the time of her disappearance, she was driving her 2015 gold Hyundai Elantra, which carried the North Carolina license plate JLT-5075. Her credit card had been used at a Harris Teeter on Celanese Road in Rock Hill, and her cellphone had pinged near Winthrop University. Fortunately, her family’s fears were relieved when she was located safe and sound.

In a contrasting, somber case, Harrison Radden, a 24-year-old from Camden, was found deceased in a pond in the Sunny Hill subdivision. Radden was reported missing publicly by Camden Police on Saturday and was classified as “an endangered missing person.” He had been last seen in the Sunny Hill area. His body was discovered on Sunday around 5 p.m. While police continue investigations, they have indicated that no foul play is suspected in Radden’s death, with an autopsy scheduled to determine the cause and manner of death. The Kershaw County Coroner’s Office confirmed that suicide is not suspected in Radden’s case, and authorities have expressed condolences to his family and friends.

Meanwhile, the mystery of Shaniece Harris, who has been missing since May 29, 2017, continues to torment her family. She was last seen leaving her home around 8:20 p.m. to visit a friend in Rock Hill, New York. When she failed to return the following morning, her girlfriend alerted her sister, Tameka, who subsequently reported Shaniece missing. Searches have been conducted, including a thorough search of the wooded area where her car was found near Thompson, New York, but they have yielded no results.

Shaniece’s family is actively seeking answers and has enlisted the FBI in their quest for information regarding her disappearance. The FBI has offered a $10,000 reward for any information that could lead to her whereabouts. Shaniece is described as a biracial woman, approximately 5’8″ and weighing between 260-300 lbs, with brown hair and eyes. At the time of her disappearance, she was wearing a black and gray hooded sweatshirt, black sweatpants, and black Nike Air Max sneakers.

As the community reflects on these recent events, the contrast between the successful reunion of one missing person and the ongoing mystery of another highlights the complex range of emotions that accompany such situations. Both personal losses and recoveries remind residents of the importance of vigilance and community support in times of crisis.
