SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. (KERO) — 30 years after Cal Poly student Kristin Smart disappeared, investigators are still searching for her remains.
Smart vanished after attending an off-campus party in San Luis Obispo in May 1996. She was last seen walking with fellow student Paul Flores, who was later convicted of her murder. Her remains have never been found.
Earlier this month, investigators served a new search warrant at the home of Flores' mother in Arroyo Grande.
The San Luis Obispo County Sheriff said the search is part of the continuing effort to locate Smart and bring closure to her family.
