Rest of missing man’s remains recovered
CAMDEN COUNTY – The Camden County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) says it has recovered the rest of Donnie Erwin’s remains from a pond off of Old South 5.
Erwin had been missing from Camden County since December of 2013.
On Saturday afternoon December 16, 2023 a CCSO detective received a phone call from a property owner in Southern Camden County. The property owner described having been contacted by a freelance videographer and drone pilot, James Hinkle, owner/operator of Sounds Like Videos.
Hinkle informed the property owner he was searching the area of Southern Camden County regarding the missing person case.
Hinkle said he thought he had located a vehicle submerged in a small pond on private property while flying his drone earlier in the week. He arranged with the property owner to search the area on foot and by kayak and found a light-colored submerged passenger car in the pond.
Hinkle has been interested in the Erwin missing person case for many years and operates the YouTube channel, Echo Divers.
