Update: Rescuers were still searching for a second body Saturday, one week after two boaters went missing on Lake Oconee, located in Eatonton, GA.

The body of Joycelyn Wilson, a mathematics instructor at Spelman College, a historically black institution in Atlanta, was found Sunday in Lake Oconee.

Her boating partner Gary Jones remains missing. Jones is a track and field coach at the Westminster Schools, an exclusive Atlanta private school community.

Their empty boat had been discovered Saturday night, circling in the water. Jones’ shoes were later found floating in the water not far from where Wilson’s body and the boat were discovered.

Putnam County Sheriff Howard Sills is not describing the case as a boating accident or anything else at this point.

“We have ruled nothing out at this point in time,” Sills told The Associated Press on Friday. It’s not just “a simple drowning,” he added.
