America's Most Wanted airs at 9 p.m. Saturday on Fox TV. The show highlights the search for Offutt. More information is also sought on the death of her infant child.
The investigation continues by members of Troop C of the state police into a structure fire about 4 a.m. July 12, 2007, at 90 Dr. Fugate Drive in Sykesville. The fire consumed a large portion of the residence and an investigation by the state police fire marshal unit concluded the fire was intentionally set.
Police are requesting assistance in locating Offutt, 33, who was the resident of the home. Offutt is 5 feet, 3 inches tall with a thin build, brown hair and brown eyes. She has been declared a missing person and was entered into the national crime information center database.
On July 16, 2007, Offutt's red 1994 Saturn coupe bearing Virginia registration JXN8871 was located along Waupelani Drive in State College, but Offutt still remains missing.
The remains of an infant child were discovered inside the burned residence by state police investigators, and subsequent DNA testing confirmed the infant was Offutt's son, Alexis Alfred Brolin III.
In an e-mail from Offutt's nephew, Jason Hungerford, he said the family is hopeful the national exposure will help generate new leads in the search for her.
