I was a close co-worker of Tony day, and we spent ten hours a day together for nearly a year...
I can tell you flatly, that there is no way this man just up and walked away... it wouldn't happen, definitely some foul play...
I can tell you the ex- girlfriends name is Candy Harris (not confirmed that last name)...
I can tell you she got married the morning Tony disappeared, (might be a marriage license record)...
I can tell you that Tony filed a VPO on this woman for stalking him at his house, and areas around his house, at early hours of the morning on many occasions the police were called and reports were filed for her stalking him... times as early as 4 -5 A.M.
I can tell you she failed to show up to visitations in which she had to check in at the county sheriffs office at least four times prior to the custody hearing set for the following day of Tony's disappearance...
I can tell you that for weeks prior to that court date, all tony could talk about was how excited he was to see his daughter, and most likely get emergency custody (as Candy was in contempt of court)...
I can tell you that tony told me and others that his ex- girlfriend threatened to make him disappear...
I can tell you that Tony loved his wife and kids deeply, and it is all he talked about ...
The VPO that was filed against Tony by her was bogus, and there were many lies she told her lawyer and the judge that she got caught in...
I can tell you despite all of Candy's best efforts, Tony handled the situations calm, cool, and waited on the courts...
There is no way that Tony just walked away...
From time to time he argued with his wife, but we all do...
Tony never ever would have just "snapped" and walked away...
I can also tell you that he hasn't spent a penny from his account or used his phone...
As far as the text message, well that is something Tony did every day, at least 30-40 times a day...
It was his primary form of communication with his wife while he was working...
"We need to talk" could have meant anything... from what to get for dinner, etc...
Tony texted her about every 2-3 minutes especially in the morning every day...
Anything else I can do to help, let me know... from time to time I'll check this forum...
Tony is (was) my friend, as well as my co-worker... and I miss him...
