Drexel, 18, of Chili was last seen walking out of a Myrtle Beach, S.C., hotel during a spring break trip last April. Her cell phone gave off its last signal several hours later about 40 miles south of there.
Frank Del Vecchio, CEO of AMBER Ready in Rockaway, N.J., and deputy chief of the Fairview, N.J., Police Department, said the company hired Benson Agency Investigations last week in the hope they can bring fresh insight to the case.
"After speaking to (Brittanee's mother) Dawn Drexel and others, we concluded that a private investigator is appropriate," Del Vecchio said Monday. "The Drexel family would be better served having a private investigator on the case."
AMBER Ready provides financial and logistical resources to assist searches and has developed technology allowing parents to create profiles of their children that can be quickly distributed if a child goes missing.
This is the first case in which AMBER Ready has hired a private investigator.
