Michelle Parker -- Missing 11/17/11

Michelle Parker, age 33 and the mother of three children, went missing on Thursday, November 17, 2011, in Orlando, FL after dropping off her two youngest children (twins) with their father, Dale Smith, Jr., in southeast Orlando, FL.

Michelle went missing just after her appearance on the television show "The People's Court" was aired. She and Dale Smith, Jr., who lived together at times, appeared on The People's Court in regard to a controversy over an engagement ring valued at approximately $5,000.

After extensive searches by Orlando and area FL law enforcement, friends and family, Michelle Parker is still missing.

Michelle's SUV - Hummer was found in an apartment complex parking lot on Friday, November 18, 2011. In late November, 2011, Michelle's cell phone was found, by divers, at the bottom of a lake in Belle Isle.

The location of where her cell phone was found is about halfway between Dale Smith, Jr.'s condominium and his parent's home, where he claimed to go after Parker dropped off their children on November 17, 2011.
~~~~~

There have been many hours spent on this case by numerous former Hinky Meter members. There was a tremendous amount of research done on this case, by them, including search records of Dale Smith, Jr. and his father, Dale Smith, Sr. There were many hours spent on screen shots and developing graphs, diagrams, charts, etc. regarding various locations and distances from various areas.

There was documentation of the various Hearings regarding the child custody issues about the twins as well as the arrest of Dale Smith, Sr. on unrelated charges.

NOTICE: You are welcomed to post previous articles, any charts, diagrams, etc. that you worked so hard on and whatever you feel will bring this thread up to speed.

I know it would be a monumental task to try to re-create your hard work from THM but you are welcomed to post whatever you feel you need for this thread to be an easy reference thread if there is further development in this case.

I will post a few articles to get this thread started. Date of articles are not usually colored in red but I will color the date of the older articles to draw attention that these are older articles.

This is a Michelle Parker "Missing Person" poster that was released shortly after she went missing. Since it was released, the reward changed many times.

The family of missing mother Michelle Parker will be allowed to visit with her two youngest children often now that a visitation agreement has been reached.

Yvonne Stewart, Parker's mother, was able to spend Sunday with her 3-year-old twin grandchildren, according to her lawyer Matt Morgan.

"Yvonne will have very liberal access to the children," Morgan said in an email to the Orlando Sentinel. "The details of the agreement will remain confidential."

Her eldest son is being cared for by his father and is not part of the visitation agreement between Stewart and the twins' father, Dale Smith II.

The 33-year-old mother vanished Nov. 17 after dropping off the twins with Smith at his home on S. Semoran Boulevard. Her family reported her missing after she failed to show up for work at The Barn that same evening.

Michelle Parker: Missing Florida Mom 'Humiliated' by 'People's Court' Appearance






By MATT GUTMAN and CHRISTINA NG
ABC News - Good Morning America


ORLANDO, Fla. Nov. 21, 2011

The mother of a missing Florida woman who disappeared the same day her case appeared on "The People's Court" said that her daughter was "humiliated" by the show.

Michelle Parker, a mother of three, was last seen Thursday afternoon when she dropped off her 3-year-old twins at her ex-fiancé Dale Smith's home. Parker also has an 11-year-old son from a previous relationship.

The feuding couple appeared on "The People's Court" to resolve a dispute about the $5,000 engagement ring that Parker, 32, allegedly drunkenly threw over a hotel balcony during an argument.

Parker's mother Yvonne Stewart told ABC News that when Michelle returned from taping the show in the summer, she said, "It was the most humiliating experience of my life. I don't even ever want to see it. I wish I had never gone."

At least three Florida mainstream media sources did an update today and I wanted to start this thread with some basic background into the case instead of just posting the updates.

I hope that some of the members will post the screen shots they did if they saved them to their computers. Some of our former THM members did an awesome job of determining distances to various locations in this case and other info.

I have seen some of their work when I Google: Michelle Parker - The Hinky Meter and click on IMAGES.

ellejay, this makes me nervous, DS2 has to know eventually he is may be arrested & it would seem his parent's don't stand a chance in hell of getting custody of the twins should that happen.

imo, this led to Josh Powell murdering Braden/Charlie. That SOB preferred to murder the boy's INSTEAD of allowing them to be raised by the Coxes' should he go to jail. It's always scarey imo, for these nutjobs to get backed into a corner., they are never going to put their children first, it is always about them.

Missing Orlando mother Michelle Parker has "dream team" take a second look at case

6:13 PM, May 24, 2012




Orlando, Florida - It's been an incredibly difficult journey for Yvonne Stewart.

She is the mother of missing Orlando mom, Michelle Parker, who disappeared last November after an episode of The People's Court where the 34-year-old appeared during a dispute over an engagement ring.

So far, the case has grown cold. Until now.

There is now a "dream team" of sorts taking a second look at the case. Orlando Police call it a "fresh approach."

Michelle Parker’s mom: Kids ‘not the same’ since she vanished

She disappeared Nov. 17, shortly after ‘People’s Court’ episode aired; no new leads

Updated 5/25/2012 10:02:33 AM ET

The mother of missing Florida woman Michelle Parker, 34, spoke out Friday about her concern for her grandchildren as a new review of the evidence pointed back to where authorities first looked — Dale Smith II, Parker’s 40-year-old ex-fiance and the father of her 4-year-old twins.

Parker’s mother, Yvonne Stewart, and sister, Lauren Erickson, spoke to TODAY’s Ann Curry about the condition of Parker’s children since her disappearance last November. “They are not the same children that they were six months ago, I’ll tell you that,” Stewart said. “They have a flat look on their face, they always ask about their mom, they aren’t real happy sometimes to go home. It’s just heart-wrenching.”

Stewart does not get to see her grandchildren as often as she would like, because their custody remains with Smith, named a person of interest in the case. The twins turned 4 just a couple of days ago, and neither Stewart nor Erickson got to see them. The family does not communicate with Smith directly and instead speak to him through his lawyer.

Michelle Parker's mother petitions to change Fla. law

Michelle's Law could grant child visitation to families of missing persons

UPDATED: 10:11 PM EDT Oct 26, 2012

ORLANDO, Fla. —
The mother of missing Orlando woman Michelle Parker has started a petition to change Florida law.

Parker's mother, Yvonne Stewart, worked with Rep. Darryl Rouson and attorney Matt Morgan to write up and launch the petition on Change.org.

If passed, the petition could lead to the enactment of Michelle's Law, which will allow the family of a missing person to petition a court for visitation of his or her children.

According to the petition's website, Stewart and her family "are lucky at this point in time that we get to see (the children), however, it would help anyone in similar circumstances and quite possibly set an example for other states to follow and change their laws."

About 150 people showed up Sunday to look for Michelle Parker, canvassing the Lake Nona area in a disappointing search for the missing mom.

Volunteers waded through the dense woods looking for Parker, who was last seen Nov. 17, 2011, when she dropped off her twin children at their father's townhouse in Carter Glen Condominiums off Goldenrod Road.

Dale Smith, 41, the twins' father, is the last person known to have seen her alive and has been named the prime suspect in the case, but he has not been charged with any crimes.

Brad Parker, Michelle's father, said some bones were uncovered during Sunday's search, but he did not know if they were human or animal bones. He said they will be given to Orlando Police for further inspection.

Family of Missing People's Court Mom Files Wrongful Death Suit Against Her Ex

By STEVE HELLING
03/07/2013 at 09:20 AM EST

Reluctantly believing she is dead, the family of Michelle Parker, the Florida mom who vanished after appearing on The People's Court in 2011, filed a wrongful death lawsuit Thursday against her ex-fiancé, Dale Smith, whom they believe was responsible.

Parker's family claims Smith knows what happened on Nov. 17, 2011, the day Parker was last seen alive.

"The family doesn't want to believe that Michelle is dead, but they believe that she is," their attorney, John Morgan, tells PEOPLE. "This is a case that has gone cold, so a civil case is the only way that Michelle's family will finally get answers. Given the passing of time, as well as some evidence we have discovered, we believe that Dale Smith is responsible for her death."

Michelle Parker's mom pushes for 'grandparent visitation rights' law

Yvonne Stewart, mother of Michelle Parker

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — The mother of missing mom Michelle Parker is heading to Tallahassee in hopes of getting lawmakers to pass a bill for visitation rights for grandparents.

The law would allow grandparents to petition a judge for the right to see their grandchildren. Parker's mom, Yvonne Stewart, told WFTV she hasn't seen her grandchildren in several months.

Under the proposed law, grandparents would have to prove that their grandchildren are being harmed by not seeing them.

The footage shows Parker's Hummer SUV stopped at a red light at around 8:55 p.m. on Nov. 17, 2011, less than one mile away from where the vehicle was discovered the next day, according to police spokesman Sgt. Jim Young. He said authorities "don't know who was behind" the wheel at the time.
