The long-unsolved case of California college student Kristin Denise Smart, who vanished more than 20 years ago, took a turn this week as officials began excavating for her remains, People confirms. Authorities are digging in an arid hillside on California Polytechnic University's San Luis Obispo, California, campus, where the athletic and upbeat freshman was last seen. Smart, then-19, went missing after an off-campus party in 1996. San Luis Obispo Sheriff Ian Parkinson, who ordered a comprehensive review of the case when he took office six years ago, "is very determined to find closure for the Smart family," sheriff's office spokesman Tony Cipolla tells People.
