“We are most concerned for their safety.”

Investigators with the Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office used evidence-sniffing dogs Thursday to search the couple’s yacht and surrounding waters, but found no evidence to suggest their whereabouts, Baxley said Thursday.

Baxley would not comment on the search, other than to say it was ongoing. He said the investigation was not criminal in nature.

“At this point, it’s still a missing persons case,” he said. (AJC)

After getting that information at the condo complex, Candace McCowan and Nathanial Nauert went to a candlelight vigil for the Calverts.  After shooting some video and talking to some of the people there, our crew heads back to the news vehicle to return to Savannah.  This is where things took an interesting turn.  Nathanial finds a rain-soaked note on the windshield. The hand printed note read “This goes deeper than Dennis.  Stay on it.  Their (sic) are more people involved.”  No signature. No phone number. Nothing.  Just those 13 words. 

Needless to say, that note created quite the buzz in the newsroom.  As our crew left Beaufort, Candace called investigators to make them aware of the note.
