As the search for missing Orlando mom Michelle Parker continued Tuesday, Orlando Police said yesterday that her ex-finance, Dale Smith, Jr., is the only suspect in Parker’s disappearance.
Parker, 33, went missing on November 17, and has not been seen since. Her family and anonymous donors, in an effort to solicit information leading to her safe return by midnight last Sunday, increased the reward to $50,000. However, the mother of 3-year-old twins remains missing.
According to reports, Parker and Smith were involved a domestic violence case in relation to children in 2009.
Orlando Police Chief Paul Rooney did say that Smith has refused to take a lie detector test when requested to do so.
The Parker family has retained the high profile law firm, Morgan and Morgan, which will provide legal services pro bono, wdbo.com reports.
At their command post on Oakridge Road near Orange Avenue, hundreds of volunteers continue the search for Parker, in the area where her cell phone was last detected nearly two weeks ago.
A separate reward of up to $5,000 is being offered by Crimeline for information on Michelle Parker’s disappearance. Anyone with infomation should call, #800-423-8477. Callers could remain anonymous.
