A South Carolina personal trainer whose body was found in a wooded area after an intensive search by police and first responders had appeared “confused” in a pair of strange interactions a week before she went missing, according to her neighbors.

Elena Katherine Moore, 39, was last seen alive on security camera footage around 9:17 p.m. on June 11 after she left a Planet Fitness gym location in Lexington and headed toward a wooded area behind a nearby Lowe’s Home Improvement store, according to police.
