Parker left Mesquite, Texas on February 14, 1982; he was en route to Rusk, Texas with a friend. He called another friend and said he was having car trouble. He has never been heard from again. Parker's travel companion later returned to Mesquite and said he had dropped Parker off and didn't know what happened to him after that.

His car was later found in Mt. Pleasant, Texas; it had been burned and the registration was removed. Foul play is suspected in Parker's case, which remains unsolved. Authorities believe he was taken against his will

Whose car was found burned out?
David called a friend to say 'he' was having car trouble
Yet the friend said he dropped David off?
So I'm a bit confused

I have the impression that the friend had something to do with it or he just murdered his friend... how does he come back and say I got out of the car and he left and disappeared? just like that? He knows but logic doesn't mean...
either way
rest in peace
