Two Years Later: Still Searching for Samantha - NBC29 WVIR Charlottesville, VA News, Sports and W...

Thursday will mark two years since 19-year-old Samantha Clarke mysteriously disappeared.

[Peace]

I am so sorry for this family, and I hope they don't have to suffer "in limbo" much longer.

[Someone who cares]

I feel sorry for this family. I hope that get some new information soon. I have been following this case since day one, and I cannot believe how slow the cops were in acting. If they had done something sooner, maybe ahe would be found already. Hearing about the greene lakes and stuff, I cant say it didnt arouse something in me. I know some people in greene who have done things like this before. I just pray to this family, that she will be found soon, and they can receive some peace.

Apparently you haven't been watching close enough. The family waited 2 days before reporting her missing (which could be normal if she were known to take off and do whatever) and when it was reported, the cops jumped in with both feet. If you are basing your comments on the lack of media coverage in the beginning, that answer needs to come from the media.

[Ya think]

Maybe this lady should team up with the Harringtons (Save the Next Girl), and let them use some of their financial resources to keep her daughter's name in the news every day until there is some progress made in the case.

[Earle]

Who does the baby belong to? I hope the family gets some answers soon. To not even know if she's dead or alive would be so heartbreaking

You know people in Greene County who have done stuff like what? Kidnapped young women and dumped them in lakes or young women who have disappeared?

[I Care]

Praying for this young lady and her family. May God's peace, love, healing and protection be upon each and everyone. Prayers for a reunion soon.

[wondering]

They said they were going to drain the lake how come that hasn't been done.... if they have had so many leads bringing them back to this lake???
If anyone could see the torment on this mothers face you would know something needs to be done.. prayers she is found and some closure is needed desperately for this family..

Actually, I was watching, unless I took it wrong, I remember them saying they thought she was a run away and that she would come back home. The family said it was out of character, and that there was no way she ran away. Either way, I am in support of the family, and I feel that they deserve the attention that big cases like Morgan Harrington received.

I was a victim as a teen, to guys in greene, who pick girls up, rape them, then leave them stranded. I do know from experience that these guys are violent, and have done it to many women, as told to me by the police when I reported them almost 10 yrs ago. I also know, these guys have ties to greene, and the street this girl disappeared from. Its all my speculation from my experience, but I do wonder if the cops have looked at these men yet.

[Someone who cares]

I meant the guys have ties to Orange county

I think the family thought she might have met someone and took off for a few days, which is why they didn't report it right away. I remember reading multiple quotes from family and law enforcement saying they did not think it was a runaway situation because if her lack of contact. Regardless, heartbreaking situation.

Have you called to pass on their names?!?!?!?!?

Makes me wonder if someone doesn't want to know what may be in their lake in that county!

[Confused]

Could someone explain to me why Samantha isn't listed on the VA State Police Missing Person's list?

Thank you for the clarification. This is really concerning if this behavior has been reported for years yet nothing is being done. I am sorry for the family and hope they get resolution soon.

[wow]

Did you just say you know people who have put dead bodies in greene lakes? The PD should trace your IP address and bring you down to the station.

What do you expect? Orange County is like Greene County...on meth.

[wow]

You only appreciate the hillbilly weed smokers/cocaine addicts in Greene once you experience the meth head capital that is Orange County.

I thought about it, but considering it is my own speculation, I didnt know if it mattered
