At every turn in Tipton, you’ll spot signs demanding Justice for Dee. The biggest sign is billboard-sized, on the side of a building. It’s on the farm owned by Dee’s brother Gregg Hardy.

“The emotional rollercoaster for something like this is beyond being able to describe. The family fluctuates from being optimistic to being extremely pessimistic to being angry because it’s not being accomplished,” said Hardy. “And by the way, that feeling resonates throughout the community. I don’t know how many people have come to me and say, ‘OK, why isn’t there unrest here?’”

[...]

“But right now, there’s a tremendous amount of energy involved in this case,” said Hardy. Part of that energy was on national television. The Investigate Discovery show “Disappeared” profiled Dee Ann Warner.

“It’s phenomenal to have that kind of coverage to bring attention to our cause of Justice for Dee,” added Hardy. Now he and other family members are hoping for a renewed national and international interest in bringing closure to their case.

Dee Ann Warner

52-year-old Dee Ann Warner was last seen at the home she shared with her husband in Franklin Township, Michigan on April 25, 2021. That Sunday, Dee’s daughter Rikkell Bock stopped by her mother’s house with her husband and daughter around 9:00 a.m., but Dee was nowhere to be found. They reported her missing later that day. Dee's brother, Gregg, told Dateline that Dee’s husband, Dale, told the family that he had left the house at 6:30 a.m. and Dee was lying on the couch snoring. Sheriff Troy Bevier told Dateline in January of 2022 that the Lenawee County Sheriff's Office was investigating Dee's disappearance. He detailed the searches for Dee -- including helicopter, foot patrol, canine, drone, and ground-penetrating radar searches. They also checked her financial and medical records and her social media. Through all of these searches, the only thing located was Dee’s keys. Over the summer, the Lenawee County Sheriff's Office requested that the Michigan State Police take the lead on Dee's case. No suspects have been named in Dee's disappearance. In August 2022, Dateline featured Dee's case in season one of the new podcast series “Dateline: Missing in America.” In September 2022, Dee's children petitioned to have their mother declared dead. Dee is 5’4” and weighs 135-140 lbs. She has brown hair which, at the time of her disappearance, had blonde highlights. Anyone with information is asked to call the Michigan State Police at (855) 642-4847.
 
Dale Warner, the husband of missing Tecumseh, Michigan woman, Dee Ann Warner, was in court today to face criminal contempt of court charges. Dee’s four adult children were in attendance, as well as, her brother, sister-in-law, nephew, and several close friends. There was no one supporting Mr. Warner, except for his attorney, Larry Leib.

Bullock. Mr. Bullock is responsible for protecting the assets of Dee Ann Warner’s estate.

The attorneys from both sides spent several hours in chambers negotiating before appearing before Hon. Katherine A. Sala in Lenawee County Probate Court. The attorneys on Dee Ann Warner’s side have been waiting for Mr. Warner to comply with orders to turn over financial records. Mr. John W. Polderman, attorney for the Successor Conservator, told the judge, “Some progress has been made, but more documents need to be produced.”

The judge agreed with all the attorneys to adjourn the hearing until April 12,
