Police and family say they have no idea what could have happened to her. Her fiance, John Carter, said he last saw Markham around 11 or 11:30 Saturday night at her townhouse.
At 12:52 a.m. Sunday, he received a picture of Markham on his cellphone, sent via text message from her phone.
That was the last time anyone has heard from her.
Her small mixed-breed dog, Murphy, was found locked in her bedroom. Carter said it was obvious the dog had been there awhile.
Markhams purse, keys and car were all there. The only things missing were Markham and her cellphone, which Carters mother, Karyn Winkler, said was turned off around 12:45 a.m. Sunday. The GPS tracking device on the phone also had been turned off.

How many times have we seen someone burning something after someone disappears? It's a definite red flag!
So if one were to dispose of someone and then try to cover their bases, the first thing you might do is make a fake text message conversation. He has to explain the burning... so we have "wish I could be there to see you burn that stuff I asked you to burn". Then, a picture of that person alive would be even better! So, he finds one on her phone and sends it to himself. He probably then realizes that someone else took that picture.
It all seems very weird and convenient for him!
~~ Markham's fiancee, John Carter, called police on Sunday, Aug. 14 to report her missing. "I know you're not suppose to report a missing person before 24 hours, but my fiancee is missing and I can't find her anywhere," he said in the call.

He was working that night and probably got off late and she had to work the next day. Maybe she wanted her sleep. AND maybe they don't sleep together. Most do but some don't.
Are any searches taking place??

It has been scrubbed from the net articles IMO, along with the fact that her phone is a certain color. I've looked and looked, and I KNOW I read those two facts.
I can't see a burglar/stranger taking her, and her phone. And apparently nothing else. It seems that whoever took her (if she was taken) had some connection to her may have wanted to delete things from her phone, and/or turn it off so it could not be located.
Respectfully snipped by me.
Sounds like someone's been reading up on when you are "supposed" to report a missing person.
