In the latest development, two conflicting theories have begun to emerge about what happened to Madalina.
Brandon Roseman, Palmiter’s attorney, says his client has cooperated with police and believes Diana is hiding her daughter away.
“He told police on several occasions that he believes that Diana had taken Madalina somewhere into the mountains,” Roseman said. “He told detectives specifically that he believes Diana took her somewhere and that she is safe.”
…
Palmiter says Diana believed that he was putting Madalina in danger by naming her as a beneficiary on an investment account.
“In these interviews he gave to police, he’s adamant that he does not believe Diana harmed Madalina. He believes that Diana fervently believes that Madalina is in danger from some unknown third party, apparently related to him placing money and assigning benefits to her in a 401K account, something that doesn’t make any sense,” Roseman said.

On Dec. 16, 2022, a woman reported seeing a girl resembling Madalina with a male companion at a Lowes grocery store in Sugar Mountain, North Carolina.
“There was a possible sighting at the Lowes Foods here in Sugar Mountain. We were able to track down video-still footage of that and forwarded that to Cornelius,” said Sugar Mountain Police Department Chief Casey Turbyfill.
Police said the sighting, along with another one in California, did not turn out to be Madalina.
Madalina Cojocari was last seen getting off her school bus. Her parents failed to report her missing for three weeks.

So police did follow up on the alleged sightings of Madalina and it wasn’t her.
Each parent claims the other took Madalina. I don’t believe either of them. JMO
