12/28/2012 – Orangeburg County Sheriff Leroy Ravenell releases the arrest of a North man in the disappearance of Kimberly Parrish.

Ravenell explains “Kenneth Franklin Cutter has been arrested and charged with murder in the disappearance of Kimberly (Bucy) Parrish. Our investigation indicates Cutter was a male friend of Kimberly Parrish’s for at least four months. We have recovered DNA and clothing evidence that belongs to Parrish from an abandoned house near the suspect’s residence. We continue to conduct an extensive search for Parrishs remains utilizing cadaver dogs, river, and air support.”

Ravenell concludes “We want to bring closure to the Parrish family so we ask hunters, farmers, and anyone with land to be vigilant and contact law enforcement if they locate anything. We thank SLED, DNR, Richland County Sheriff’s Department, and the North Police Department for their assistance and resources during this investigation.”

Cutters arraignment will be Monday at 2:30 p.m.
