Update: Brittanee Marie Drexel missing details from DemocratAndChronicle.com
Last Wednesday (April 22), Brittanee Drexel’s mom Dawn Drexel did not permit her to go holidays in Myrtle Beach, but did allow her daughter to sleep over a friend’s house. Only when Ms. Dawn received the call alarming her daughter missing on April 25 night, she realized Britanee had went to South Carolina.
Dawn Drexel called family friend John Hahn, 20, a Marine who is stationed in Camp LeJeune, N.C., early Sunday (April 26) and asked him to travel to Myrtle Beach and file a police report.
According to Hahn and police, Drexel walked about a half-mile from the Bar Harbor Motel where she was staying to visit a friend at the Bluewater Resort on Saturday night. She left to return to her own hotel room but never made it back.
According to witness statements from young men who were staying at the Bluewater Resort, Drexel went to their hotel room about 8 p.m. Saturday but left about 10 minutes later to return a pair of shorts to a friend with whom she had traveled. Two of the men stated that Drexel had been arguing with her friend because Drexel had been wearing her shorts and the friend wanted them back.
Dawn Drexel, who arrived Monday in Myrtle Beach, said she does not believe her daughter ran away, adding that she just “wanted to get away and have fun with her friends.”
As of the time of this entry was updated, Britanee Drexel was still not found.

OMG I am so sorry about this situation, I lived on SC and I know things are not Good in this State, and for that reason I don’t let my son to go no ware without my consent or even if he will go some were else I have to talk to an ADULT to make sure that everything will be o.k.. I WILL NOT LET MY SON OF 17 Y/O go with friends to another states because now you can see what can happen when you are not LOKKING AT YOUR KIDS!

Very sad and I hope she is found safe. The parents seemed to blame everyone but themselves. I understand they are worried sick over their child, but they did not do a very good job of keeping up with her.

well its been almost a month now since she disappeared?????? rumors where that she was still in hiding from her mother. i really doubt that senario now, i think she was a naive little girl that made the classic mistake of thinking she was mature enough to just stroll around in this ole world and be safe. i think someone really evil saw her and couldnt resist the opportunity to take advantage of her and they did. my only question is why didnt the mother go and get her the second she knew that she was in another state. my son is sixteen and and pretty big kid, but if he ran off like that i would be in my car going to get his behind. just a tragedy all around. parents and teenagers alike should take notice, this ole world is full of evil just outside your door and if you are not careful then it will suck you up like a vacuum, parents dont let your kids go strolling off to another state, just because you want a break from their little butts. this aint the 1950s people, we have alot of mentally unstable people running around and even a grown man like me watches his back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i pray everyone stays with the idea that she is ok. we can NEVER give up hope or conclude the worst has happen. many of cases have turned up with a mere runaway case and the child is fine. i hope this will be the case. i wish my best to all involved. i think all the folks who like to suggest or talk of the harsh side should keep that to themselves. if this was my child i sure wouldn’t want to read or see negitive replys. at this point every ounce of positive feelings or comments and replys would be like good to the ones who’s hearts are breaking.

I think of Britannee every day, my grandaughter goes to her school, Dawn Drexel, you are so very brave, I pray for you every day, I can only imagine how your heart is breaking, your first born, I have 3 daughters, couldn’t imagine not knowing where they were, even though they’re grown with kids of their own.I still hope that we find her safe. Never give up. God bless you and your family.

I am very concerned for this young girl, but here is a word advice for the Mother! If you knew she where she was! Why did’nt you get in your car and go pick her up. It’s simple call the front desk where she was and have security remove her from the company she was keeping considering she is a minor… then you have security call the POLICE and keep her in custody until you get there! She would be pissed for a while but when she grows up she will thank you and she can start to take to have the fear of her Mother and GOD!

Ok people! Her mother did not find out she was out of state until after the disappearnce. Iam sure if she knew, she would of been in the first car smoking! I’m sorry to say, but foul play maybe involved in this case.

Yes, the mother didn’t find out until she got a call that the girl was missing. That is why she contacted the marine friend to go and file until she got there. I pray for the family that she is found safe.

I’m in Myrtle Beach now and was wondering where the flyers were? Have they given up hope?
July 23, 2009 at 7:34 pm
I’m from her home area and I also had friends sneak off for spring break -_- its so awful it happened and I check back constantly to see if there are any updates any where. Please be more kind and considerate to the family. They’ve lost their daughter it cant get much worse.

Always hoping to hear of a happy ending to this heartbreaking story. I only wonder if the Drexel family was able to gain any further insight either through the psychic or private detective hired? There is hardly a day that goes by that I don’t think about the pain you must be going through. I would not wish this on anyone anywhere… Bless you for your courage in trying to do everything possible to bring her back; I admire you so very much, in spite of all the criticism you have had to endure. You are a true loving family.

Brittanee;
I hope you are reading this email. We all understand to be a teenager because we were once a teen. I truly wish and pray that you will call your mother or someone you believe in.
Believe me; I am sure she is suffering each day worrying about you. I am sure she will not make any judgment against you. I do not know you or who your mother nor where your location you loved in USA.
However, I spotted your news so I wanted to send you this email.
Anyone, who knows Brittanee, please reply to this blog or contact 911. I am sure Brittanee’s mother will appreciate you bringing back her daughter.
In the name of the Father, the Son & Holy Spirit, please guide Brittanee and bring her back to her mother where she belongs. Holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us sinners forever and ever.
