The “Crime Stoppers” reenactment was produced by a WIS-TV film crew on Friday, June 14, two weeks to the day after Shari was kidnapped, and scheduled to be aired on local television stations beginning the following Monday. It was filmed on location at the Town Square shopping center parking lot and on the Smiths’ driveway. Twenty-one-year-old University of South Carolina junior Tracy Perry, a SLED agent’s pretty blond daughter who resembled Shari, portrayed her. Shari’s own blue Chevette was used, and her boyfriend, Richard, took part.
