In January 2013, police searched a cistern in Covington for the remains of Johnson after they got a tip that the girl’s body may have been dumped there. That searched turned up nothing.
In the summer of 2012, authorities responded to a tip that Johnson was buried in a shallow grave in Knox County, but no remains were found.
Johnson’s family told LEX18 that Paige was declared legally dead in 2012.
