COVINGTON, Ky. - After 365 days, friends and family are still looking for Paige Johnson.

Paige Johnson was last seen September 23, 2010 at 15th and Scott streets in Covington.

Johnson was 17 years old when she disappeared.

A vigil to honor her was held Friday in Covington's Goebel Park, located on Philadelphia Street near W. 7th Street in Covington, from 6-9 p.m.

Paige's mother is seeking to have her daughter declared dead.

Attorney Eric Deters said after Paige is declared dead, her mother plans to file a wrongful death lawsuit against Jacob Bumpass, the last person seen with Paige. Bumpass is not charged in Paige's disappearance.
