Thank you Jethro. I will add that for future versions of the timeline. I dd not dig into her marriages much but I think she may have been married 3 times based on the surnames associated with her in public records. She also previously had a last name of Richardson.

I haven't found that divorce yet. I don't think it is out of Florida. Perhaps, Maryland.
 
Found the Richardson divorce in Miami-Dade. July 11th, 1997 filing and completed August 6th. 1997.

Thanks, Jethro! I was still trying to find it. That was a really fast divorce. Less than a month from filing to completion.

Do you know when she married her second husband, EF? I have not found marriage records for them yet, only divorce.

I did find that but I didn't record the info, I will post back with it.

I did find the date Seth Boyd's divorce was final from the Texas Vital records indexes - February 2nd, 2009 from Kendall County Texas. Finding court cases in that county is challenging because the Texas Legislature created a new court district for that county (451st) and Kendall County used to be part of the 216th district.
 
EF Marriage was on January 1st, 2002 (marriage record filed January 4th, 2002) from Indian River County records.
 
So maybe... after the 3rd marriage began to dissolve, at the age of 41, Michele had an epiphany about her life, her companionship path, went middle-age crazy, sensed her maybe-not-so-stellar confidence for staying married (I don't know). Add the fact that she was the only one working, she had a new car note and honestly, maybe she panicked and bolted for home and/or off the grid completely. The cell phone in the dumpster and the subsequent ping in Florida and the Iterative Grace theme seem... potentially telling. But then again, she left her daughter??? I am still completely stumped a year later. :thinking:
 
That was some great sleuthing, yall!!! I love the insane amount of talent here.

If things went down the way they are reported, that baby must have been TERRIFIED!!!!! Her mom parks, throws her phone in the dumpster (now she knows she cannot call her mom from anyone elses phone and she also does not have a phone to try to call 911) and was alone outside a store. I would be scared at 44 lol. I can imagine how scary this must have been for a child old enough to understand fear and too young to be capable of doing too much. I hope she is doing well.

I honestly don't know what to say about all of this. I don't feel like the husband had anything to do with it, especially since the mom talked to her after the lunch. And I think the daughter would definitely be able to say she went to the store with both her mom and dad. I just cannot imagine any reason I would leave my child by himself unless someone tore me away from in front of him. And he would know that because he would see it. She clearly had a hand in walking away from the child, even if she intended it to be only for a few minutes. But the child saw her throw the phone and the child was at a store alone and did not witness a struggle. I don't know any way that can be turned around to anyone else, unless these details are not accurate.
 
One more thing---- I would be interested to know if the store where she was left was a place that was family owned or that Michele frequented. I think if I ever did choose to leave my child and walk away (by the way there is zero chance of that. zero.), I think I would find a place that I often saw the kids in the store, working with the parents and they seemed kind. Someone I know would notice my child there and would make sure they got to the right authorities to take care of him.

When I see how Michele met her husband and the sequence of events that follow I would be concerned about something like that occurring in the future - with either one of them. So, when you couple that with being paranoid about internet privacy, financial problems - but getting a new care, and a separation it is very tempting to be looking in the obvious direction.

But then we have the unspecified medical condition that requires medication. Which reminds me, I don't think it was mentioned if it was known whether she had stopped taking that medication and/or left her medication behind. We have alleged odd behavior mentioned by both her husband and brother. This wants to put you in another direction.

At this point, considering that there has been seemingly no contact, no banking activity, no activity on any e-mail/messaging/social media, it doesn't look like a positive outcome is possible. I know that if LE has taken the right steps any use of her SSN, such as working or applying for any benefits would kick out a lead on her. Any refilling of a prescription. Any hospital visit, even as a Jane Doe would at least get her ID'ed. Much depends on whether LE has done so. It is unclear if she is in NCIC as a missing person so that if any LE contact occurred it would cause a stop and hold anywhere in the country. We know she isn't in NAMUS and we don't know why that is yet. What is most troublesome is that it doesn't appear if anyone is looking for her. With LE not saying anything it leads me to wonder if they still have her missing person's case open and active or they consider her voluntarily missing.
 
Wow great job everyone!!
I would be interested to know what lead to her previous divorces and if either of her ex's noticed mental illness signs. People with some mental illnesses can often hide symptoms from others because they know their ideas, thoughts are not considered "normal". I've mentioned before that my mother in law suffers from schizophrenia for most of her adult life. She has acquired multiple licenses and worked in the health care system for many years until recently when she was unable to hide her symptoms due to extreme paranoid behavior. But I must say that usually she is very good at hiding it and knows how to act around others (ex when we're trying to have her hospitalized). When she is unstable she thinks we are trying to poison her, or plotting to get rid of her in some way. She has called Police on us. When they are in a state of psychosis it is totally real to them. They hear things that are not said, see things that are not there.
The only way I can explain her leaving her child is that in her mind she thought she was actually protecting her. I work with mental health patients every day and a large number of our homeless have mental illness, they don't trust people or the government and feel safer being off the grid.
With all that being said..
I think her mother lives in Florida, she was married previously in Florida so I would assume she has friends in Florida
and her phone pinged in Florida. Could she have convinced someone her life is in danger and they are possibly hiding her?
Sorry my posts are so random and rambling.. I don't have the patience for organizing well like a lot of you do.
Again, great job that you all have been doing.

That is a distinct possibility. The 27(?) spiral notebooks that her husband said she wrote in would possibly give some insight - especially if they are really more of a diary/journal even if "coded" in a way that is meant only for her to understand. Some of the things her husband and her brother had said about her behavior were seemingly delusional paranoia. Most often delusions are auditory - just like you indicate with your mother - though neither her husband or brother mentioned auditory delusions. I would like to know several examples of what things Michele had re-arranged in the house that he mentioned in the number list in one of his posts. That too could give insight. There is often an obsessive, compulsive behavior that shows up but I didn't see that in what I have read in posts here and elsewhere.

Since it doesn't seem like anyone is really looking for her any more I suppose it is possible to hide her though in the scheme of things where, if found, she wouldn't be forced to go back or to see anyone she didn't want to it doesn't seem likely but can't be ruled out.
 
What I'm still stuck on is where she left her daughter and th circumstances surrounding it. She left her in a not so good and safe part of town. Who does that to heir own child? She didn't call someone and tell them where the child could be found, she didn't make sure the child was seen by a Good Samaritan who old do the Ishtar in by contacting authorities when she was found. She left that child in a higher crime area, without money, a phone, a phone call to someone.....nothing! This child could have gotten into the wrong hands that could have caused her extreme harm and Mom didn't care?

To me this does sound like a break from reality. She wanted a child so badly, then she just leaves the kid on the streets? Nah, something is seriously wrong here.

But it still doesn't mean she didn't fall into the wrong hands herself, once she left her child. After almost a year, off grid? I don't think she's with us anymore. Just my opinion and a feeling. FWIW
 
Thank you for the hard work Gardener. Your timelines are always so inclusive and accurate based on the information we have. I appreciate your work so much.
I agree!!! Wow Gardener, you rock!

I agree it is highly likely that Michele is not alive. The main issue is her daughter is clearly old enough to have a lot to say about what did and did not happen on Thanksgiving Day. LE has not offered anything about that part of this case. Or really anything at all. I find the silence by LE to be the strangest thing about the entire case.

For me that means either San Antonio police believe she is voluntarily missing and they have closed her case or they don't need the public's assistance in either finding her or finding who is responsible for her disappearance if there is foul play at hand. Anything LE could do to shed any light on this case would be extremely helpful.

What I have learned hanging around WS is, that LE knows a lot more than they tell us. And sometimes they already know who the POI is but are keeping it to themselves as not to tip the POI off that they are on to them. I'm really hoping that's the case this time.

Like with Taylor Wright, when we were still asking questions, they already had the answers and were getting the arrest warrant in place. I'm hoping so anyway.

The daughter I sent definitely old enough to answer some questions clearly and I'm sure she was asked.
