Oconee County, GA Politics

The following is directly from the Oconee County Sheriff's Office: We are looking for a Chevy or GMC single-cab, short-bed pick-up truck that is pewter in color. It was seen on Simonton Bridge Road on Wednesday at the time Misty Myrick's body was discovered. We need to talk to the driver of this vehicle as they may be a witness. The truck was pulling a trailer. A picture of a truck is attached depicting the body style and color of the truck that is of interest. It is not the actual truck. The roadway was shut down earlier today to do a scale diagram of the scene. We have no reason to believe that residents in the area are in any particular danger.

The following is from the Oconee County Sheriff's Office - I talked about Christ with this woman all the time when she worked at the Waffle House on 441 in Oconee County. She had been working downtown the last time I ate there maybe three months ago. So very sad.   The woman found deceased yesterday along Simonton Bridge Road has been identified as Misty Michelle Myrick (38) of Oglethorpe County. The crime lab has determined that the death is a homicide. We will not be disclosing the manner in which she was killed. We ask that people do not post rumors and speculation.
