Earlier this year, the Mason County Sheriff's Office announced they were tracking down new leads in the 1993 killing of Scottville teen Melissa Simmons. She was last seen alive in June of 1993. Detectives have worked ever since to try and find who may have killed Melissa. Recently, Mason County Sheriff Kim Cole asked two new investigators to look at the case and it didn’t take them long to find something that pointed them towards new leads.
