LEXINGTON COUNTY (WACH) -- Lexington County deputies have arrested a third person in connection to the kidnapping and murder of Michael George, the West Columbia man who hasn’t been seen since December 2011.
33-year-old Rachel Fremion is charged as an accessory after the fact to murder.
Investigators say she helped clean blood from the home of Jamey Mallette.
Mallette and William “Tommy” Embree, Jr. are charged with killing George.
Witnesses tell deputies Fremion worked on several occasions to clean up a “bloody mess” at Mallette’s home.
Deputies say Mallette and Embree kidnapped George from Shooter’s Bar on Charleston Highway either late December 23, 2011 or early the next morning.
Investigators say blood and DNA evidence in Mallette’s home came from George.
The 22-year-old’s body has never been found.
Deputies ask if you to call CrimeStoppers at 1-888-CRIME-SC if you have any information on the case.
