New York State Police say Jenni-Lyn Watson came home from college for Thanksgiving. She was home visiting her family when she disappeared Friday morning.
Tuesday, search and rescue crews searched on the ground and in the air, pinpointing the area which her cell phone had its final activity. Investigators said they received a signal from a heavily wooded area in Liverpool, N.Y.
"It's completely unlike her," said next door neighbor Stacey Kinahan. "She's a ballerina, a wonderful student, keeps in touch with her family and loves her family. It's very out of character for her not to contact anybody,"
Her friends are doing what they can to help in the search.
A Facebook page setup received thousands of members in less than 48 hours. Many of her friends have changed their profile picture to that of Jenni-Lyn in an effort to bring the case attention and get the word out.
The Facebook posts are working. Dozens of people have been showing up to pass out fliers in her hometown, and others have been spreading the online search across upstate New York and Pennsylvania.
An advertising company is using its electronic billboards to post Watson's picture at seven locations in the Syracuse area, as well as one in Buffalo and one in Albany.
