MI MI - Danielle Stislicki, 28, Southfield, 2 Dec 2016 #1

[BetteDavisEyes]

I recall having read somewhere that Danielle had been taking classes at Wayne State University and was close to completing a Bachelor's degree. Was she currently enrolled in class(es)? If so, did she attend class on main campus (midtown Detroit), extension class off-campus, or on-line course? Does Danielle have friends who live on campus in Detroit and visit them there? This is an aspect of her life that hasn't been explored here.

 

[BetteDavisEyes]

We know that Danielle's purse and wallet were found in her locked vehicle. Presumably, her driver's license and/or other ID were in the wallet. Unless she has an enhanced DL that includes travel to Canada, Mexico, and some parts of the Caribbean, a passport would have been required for Danielle to cross the border into Canada either from Detroit or Port Huron. Most people don't carry their passport with them unless they're traveling. Does anyone know if Danielle has a passport or if it's been located?

Looking through her extensive Instagram feed reveals a very fun-loving, healthy-eating and creative person.

However in one of her Instagrams twenty weeks ago she inadvertently revealed her keys.

I know this is probably a very long shot, but arguably one could take that picture to a key shop, say 'I lost my keys and only have this picture of them', and get them made.

That opens the possibility that she came home, dashed into the apartment to grab something [explaining purse still in car] and was surprised. That could hide an abduction vs. an open-to-view parking lot snatch. Perhaps a call out to key shops could lead somewhere. If it happened it would be a memorable event. Grasping for straws but this event is so disturbing and nearby to me.

My hopes and prayers go out for Danielle and her family. [and her cat]

Not possible by that picture alone, because each key has staggered cuts on both sides, and even with the best zoom you wouldn't be able to resolve that.

All this talk about why so many branches of LE...it has not been stated anywhere that a particular agency has taken over jurisdiction of this investigation, has it? Local LE is still LEAD on Danielle's disappearance? If that is in fact the case, the other agencies have been invited or asked by local LE to assist and it could simply be that local LE is getting and asking for help from everyone they can think of..it doesn't have to be anything subversive or sinister that Danielle may ormay not have been involved in, it could be as simple as local LE utilizing EVERY agency they can to find Danielle. Each agency brings something special to the table or they could merely be coordinating information or processing evidence, doing backgrounds, interviewing, etc.
It doesn't mean that all the different agencies have information regarding Dani. Or that Dani was involved in something sinister or secret. For instance, local LE would have "thanked" or acknowledged DEA if they asked DEA to compile a list of drug dealers in the area. That's it. That's it. Nothing more. SONIC could have been asked to check with their snitches to see what the word is on the street and then they would have been acknowledged as "working" the case also..see where this is going?
IMO people are making way to much of the agencies involved (that may not be involved anymore because they've done their part). It muddies the water IMO.
There is absolutely NO whispers or murmurs anywhere, from anyone that knows her, that imply or suggest Danielle is something more than what she presents herself to be. A happy, well-adjusted, law-abiding ,loved young woman.

I'm not sure why you are willing to rule out aspects this early in the investigation, however your use of "dani" leads me to believe you know her or have people in your life that do. I know that if that's the case you may find it hard to see her as anything other than you know. But people on this board only see clues and facts, not personal knowledge usually.

I really do disagree that LE went out and gave out blanket invitations to pretty much every jurisdiction available to them because quite honestly there are many many missing people in MI and from what I can find, none have this level or involvement or this high of a reward. Sorry we disagree, but it's too early for me to rule out anything at all. And I don't recall anyone at all on this board insinuating DS is not a loved young woman, we don't however know that she was indeed happy (what we show to the world is not necessarily what we feel) nor do we know she was law abiding (her key chain gives us a glimpse).

But what we do know is that everyone in this thread is desperate to pick apart everything we can, analyze, suggest, discredit when we can and ultimately bring DS home one way or another.

You have to have an open mind. If you are indeed an insider please become verified so we can dispel rumors and reply to your posts without having to back yourself up with MSM.

I am a PI that works the metro Detroit area. I have from reliable source LE thinks she was abducted by human traffickers, and fear she may be gone. I hope that is not the case. The Independence Green apartments seem to attract a lot of foreigners IMO. Also, for those in MI, Great Lakes Crossing Mall in Auburn Hills has been location of attempting human trafficking abduction, which from what I'm told the MO is very much like that in the film "Taken"--target young women, flirt, follow to car and grab them. Thin, pretty, and young. Michiganders be on the alert, especially young women who fit the profile.

I hope she is found, this type of thing personally sickens me and the degenerates who would perpetrate this are subhuman IMO. I had thought of offering free labor and assistance from the firm I work for, but it seems like so many agencies and private parties are already involved (canvassing, doing data forensics, etc) don't want to interfere and don't know what we could ad, but if someone wants to reach out PM me on the board. Prayers for this girl and her family. . .

My husband said it was likely human trafficking as I was telling him about her disappearance. He said it had been a big problem
in Michigan lately, which is so scary. I mentioned this earlier in the thread, but didn't get any hits on it. I was really hoping that my husband's suggestion was just crazy, but after reading your post it seems it wasn't. This makes me so sad and so scared for Dani.

Yes, but aren't the Canadians notoriously lax with their border crossings?

Of course it's a risky venture, but if you're getting her over the border, I'm thinking your best bet is to stuff her in the trunk. If I were abducting her, I'd prefer that to having her show her license to a border agent and potentially cause a scene.

There are a few things I'd like to add to this case. (First post, been a voyeur the entire time)

First is this IMGUR post to share: http://imgur.com/gallery/WUvWd

Second is the time between 4:30-5pm on 12/2, may have looked nearly identical to the daylight as 12/9. I took a photograph (No HDR or special effects/filters-Also, to head the comments about photographing/driving off, we were nearly stop and go the entire time) at 4:51PM, around the Southfield Rd/ M14 exchange on the 9th. Only to really provide a bit more evidence that it was still daytime and night hadn't set in yet. It's overcast, but it should represent the amount of light during these hours. A daytime abduction is risky, especially near the time people would be leaving work and/or coming home. IMO, I would see something happening inside the apt hallway/doors vs outside. Unless these are brazen criminals(or stupid), doing it in daylight is harder to get away with.

Third - Recent attempts or other missing persons cases: http://www.candgnews.com/news/police-search-men-wanted-attempted-abduction-97984 and http://www.candgnews.com/news/police-search-missing-southfield-man-98010/ - Though really the first one. That was a daylight attempt, around 4:30PM.

If I think of anything more I will post it.

Also, with human trafficking, you have to remember that Toledo is a popular hub for that. It's basically a straight shot down 275 into Toledo.

Another thing is Farmington Hills has an odd number of massage parlors for any suburb. Both along Grand River and Northwestern Highway. Although some have referred to it as affluent, there is definitely a seedy underbelly.

That used to be the case, but not any more. DH and I used to go to Toronto several times a year (crossing at Port Huron) and didn't need a passport as long as we had other ID. Now, a passport or enhanced DL is required to cross to Windsor or Sarnia. One of my brothers visits our Canadian relatives in and around Windsor every couple of months and has had to have his enhanced DL. His car has been searched randomly a couple of times, as well. He figured it's due to his longish hair At any rate, if there's any hint of suspicion about driver, passengers, vehicle, etc., it's not a piece of cake to cross the border.

Let's vet out the HT angle. It's no more far fetched than any other possibility.

If Danielle was taken for HT, she was probably taken between the car and her building door.

My guess is the building has no outsider cameras.

Contrary to earlier theories, I do not think there would have been a lot if foot traffic in her parking lot between 4:45 pm - 5:15 pm.

However, school aged kids may have still been wrapping up their outside activities. I don't really want to frighten kids, but maybe some kid(s) saw a person or car.

Also, the screen shot was removed but someone needs to direct the PrivateEyeMI to that posting, wherever it is.

Thanks for posting that, interesting to see visibility even with low light at the apt complex

They made me wake up a sleeping 3 year old 4 years ago so they could compare him with his passport photo, even tho they could see him.....grrrrrrrr...I don't call that lax at all.

That's interesting. I imagined it a whole lot darker. It's almost pitch black here at that time.

That could be a busy time on a Friday tho if people work local they could be getting home if they work until 430 etc.
I agree on kids tho...I do wonder if there were any around...

 

[Eileen730]

I think traffickers look for young runaways or homeless drug addicts young girls that are not going to be missed if they vanish.
I don't see them targeting a 26 27 or 28 yr old young professional. Sorry .
This is something else completelyou.
Now didn't LE say it's not that she is missing that's alarming but her welfare something like that.
I have a question. Is there anyone from her past maybe that would want to hurt her that maybe got out of jail?

 

[NoHeartAnthony]

The building doesn't have outside cameras.

If she parked in her spot and attempted to go inside, it'll take about 5-8 seconds from car door to indoors. It's a spot close enough to where if she screamed, yelled, she would be heard.

If she parked in her spot, then went to get mail, that would take a bit more time. The mailboxes are in islands in the middle of the parking lot. They are far enough from residences that there is less of a chance she'd be heard.

I'll direct PrivateEye to the posting. I talked to the girl and have some interesting info.

 

[NoHeartAnthony]

There was a recent attempt in Macomb County that those being roofied/attacked believed to be a trafficking attempt. Completely different scenario but traffickers aren't necessarily always looking into runaways.

Can I ask the board members where the information came from about a witness possibly seeing her near the Windsor border? For those not in MI, Farmington Hills is a suburb of Detroit, and there is a bridge and tunnel to Windsor, CA not far at all by interstate from her apartments, which has an entry point at Grand River and Halstead Rd which is just cater-corner SW of the complex itself.

<mod snip>

Did a little background on the guy providing the tip, I don't see any criminal element to him.

He's right that her path would lead to Rosa Parks Transit Center and People Mover station. Also a few blocks down is the Greyhound station. Greyhound and RPTC both recently built and assuredly have surveillance. People mover I'm not sure of, but it goes in a slow circle, not sure why she'd use it to get to any place of significance.

If she traveled down there herself, she wouldn't need to walk to either, it's not like Uber/Lyft drivers can't pull up in front. SMART busses lead right to RPTC and don't fit in the timeline. Someone dropping her off could drop her off at either.

If she's with someone else, wouldn't this guy have seen another figure?

I wanted to extend a special thanks to Holocene - your prompt answers and information throughout have been so helpful as we try to puzzle out what's happened. You are so much appreciated!

 

[NoHeartAnthony]

I assume she's renting her apartment there. Doing a search for her via whitepages, you can find her address. So for a young, single girl, who has a public life on the internet, you can find out where she lives, which apartment number, do a bit more research and find out she's single.

I looked for myself on whitepages and the phone number is wrong, and no address listed. I'm up to date with the Secretary of State.
