Missing womans family continues to seek answers
It appears 2017 will draw to a close for the family of Calandra Stallworth with few answers as to what has become of her.
Stallworth, a Crestview resident, was last seen March 29, when she reportedly went to the citys police department headquarters to notify authorities she was not missing, as her family had reported two days earlier. She told police she had been in Alabama with her boyfriend.
For whatever reason, Stallworth, who from all accounts was extremely close to her family, did not reunite with them after stopping in at the police station.
Family members had last seen Stallworth March 27, according to reports, when she dropped off her two young daughters at her grandmothers house next door on her way into work at the Hilton Sandestin Beach.
Stallworth had called on the evening of March 27 to report she was on her way home, but she never arrived.
Another development in the case came four days after police said they had contact with Stallworth. Antwon Montrex Smith, Stallworths boyfriend of more than three years according to Knight, was pulled over driving her car.
Smith was with another woman, 18-year-old Taleah Durm. Stallworths purse and cellphone were in her car, Knight said, but she was not.
Smith, who was arrested on the night the car was pulled over for possession of cocaine, driving without a license and a probation violation, told officers he had dropped off Stallworth at another mans residence.
Police department spokesman Brian Hughes confirmed the case remains an active investigation and Crestview police have enlisted the help of the Okaloosa County Sheriffs Office and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement in the search for a break in the Stallworth case.
Smith, 33, is serving a 15-month prison term at the Florida State Prison in Raiford on several charges. He is scheduled for release in June of 2018.
