In January, authorities said dive teams in Vance County found human remains that were later identified as Mustian's while searching a pond near Henderson.

Mustian was last seen and heard from on Nov. 30, 2023, on Dorothy Drive in Warrenton.

Griffin has been charged with concealment of a death and is awaiting an extradition hearing at a Myrtle Beach Detention Facility.
