Just to note:

(1) Their names were Julie Williams and Lollie Winans.

(2) They were on a five day trip in Shenandoah National Park and were
    not on the AT, although they were nearby.  Not that it really matters.

(3) The dog was found running loose nearby.

For lots of information on the case, you can check out the following
subpage of Kathy Bilton's AT site:

The Internet is a wonderful thing, but getting information from it is a
little like playing a giant game of "Telephone."
