ORANGE, Va. (WRIC) — Police gave an update Friday to a missing person’s case out of Virginia that has received national attention.

More than 10 years after Samantha Clarke went missing from her home in Orange County, investigators are reclassifying the case as an abduction and murder investigation.

On Sept. 13, 2010, then 19-year-old Samantha Ann Clarke left her Orange home late at night, according to Police Chief James Fenwick. Then 19-year-old Samantha Clarke went missing from her Orange home on Sept. 13, 2010. Samantha told her brother she was leaving. The only thing she took with her was her house key.

“She was never seen or heard from again,” said Fenwick.
