Searching for Meredith Emerson
Meredith Emerson went hiking about 11 a.m. Tuesday, Jan. 1 on the six-mile-long trail with her dog, police said. Before Gary Michael Hilton was connected to the case, several people told investigators they saw her with a gray- or silver-haired man, who wore a backpack and a yellow jacket with black elbow patches and stripes, Verdone said. Police say Hilton is about 5 foot 10 and 160 pounds. Vino Wong/AJC
