Nearly a month and still no answers as Berkeley County deputies search for a missing woman.
Ruth Jenkins has been missing for 24 days. Multiple agencies have been on the ground searching, but community activists say they are starting to get nervous.
“And because we're coming up on a 30 day mark with today being day 24, we know that we are pushing that envelope way too closely for comfort," said Sharea Washington with South Carolina Black Activists Coalition.

Berkeley County Sheriff Duane Lewis says his team has been working around the clock since Jenkins was reported missing.
"At this point, the detectives have been going through this thing since the the 16th of July when she became missing that night. We've not uncovered any foul play that we can determine at this point."
Multiple agencies, including State Law Enforcement Division (SLED) and South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (SCDNR), exhausting all efforts in her search.
"We've put a lot of folks on the ground. We've put drones up, we've had divers going into any of the retention ponds and those kind of things," says Sheriff Lewis.
Lewis says they have interviewed friends and family. Everyone has cooperated, and there are no red flags.
"It appears, from our investigation at this point, that she wandered away from her home in Pineville."
Lewis says he wants the family and community to know they are not going to give up on her search.
"We have and will continue to do everything we can to find her."
Jenkins is 5'6" and weighs 125 pounds. Officials say she was last seen walking in the 1800 block of Highway 45 in Pineville.
