Volunteers search for missing teen Sierra Lamar

MORGAN HILL, Calif. (KGO) -- In Morgan Hill, volunteers showed up to search for missing teenager Sierra Lamar, as they have every Saturday and Wednesday since mid-March.

The 15-year-old disappeared from her home on March 16th. Antolin Garcia-Torres has been charged with her murder, but her body hasn't been found.

Friday's discovery of female remains in San Benito County hasn't discouraged volunteers.

"It gets hard at times, of course," volunteer Kelli Wilkins said. "You know, like with what happened yesterday. Everybody was, you know, scared, but, you know, everybody still showed up today and it's been very positive."

Up to 60 volunteers show up every search day to help look for Sierra. The search headquarters are at Burnett Elementary School in Morgan Hill.
