New details have emerged in the case of an Upstate woman who went missing last month and hasn't been heard from since. As we previously reported, The Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office responded May 16th to a home on Pratt Dr. in Boiling Springs, in reference to a missing persons report.

The homeowner reported that her granddaughter, Casey Young did not show up for work that day, which was out of character for her. Young had been living at the home with her boyfriend Da'Ron Jerome Collins.

Investigators say, Collins told them Young came home from work on May 15th, they got into an argument, she then left in her car and he hadn't seen or heard from her since. Young's cell phone records and video footage from the area showed that she arrived home in her car just before 5 PM, May 15th.

On May 17th, Young's car was found parked in the bushes at an apartment complex just miles from the home. Investigators say, surveillance footage from the complex clearly showed that Collins was the lone person in the vehicle, wiped it down before exiting and disposed of items in the dumpster.

Video also showed Collins walking away from the complex in what investigators described, as an attempted cover up. Thus far, Collins has been charged with grand larceny and obstructing justice. He has not been charged with Young's disappearance, but is the main suspect.

A $10,000 dollar reward has been offered for Young being located and identifying who's responsible for her disappearance. Lieutenant Letterman is leading the investigation; he can be contacted at 864 494-0644.
