Hey everyone, I’ve been following John Drayton Lucas’ case from Swansea, and something's been gnawing at me. During the initial investigation, they did aerial searches, but I wonder if any large bodies of water were checked thoroughly. With John having recently been discharged from the hospital, perhaps his physical condition could've made it difficult for him to get far if he needed assistance. I know there was a massive search effort in June 2025 that included water searches, but does anyone know if there was any specific focus on lakes or rivers near the path he might have taken towards Orangeburg County? It seems like it could be a crucial area that might have been overlooked initially. Would love to discuss and hear any insights from folks familiar with that area or similar cases.
