While police wait for the results of forensic evidence testing and continue to investigate, a community activist is offering a reward for any information that leads to an arrest. 

"During this investigation, officers interviewed have interviewed several witnesses and also individuals who were last in contact with Destiny and Nazirah," Hobart Police Captain James Gonzalez said. "They have conducted several search warrants and subpoenas for cell phone data and social media accounts, and have rifled and sifted through hundreds of pages of information. Through this information, they have been able to establish a foundation of evidence. There is additional laboratory results our investigators are still waiting for which could also potentially build upon their current foundation."
