Clifford Wright, the former boyfriend of Tamela Gardner, missing and presumed 
dead along with a male companion has been arrested on unrelated drug charges. 36 year old Clifford Wright is a “person of interest” in the homicide investigation involving two bodies found yesterday in a van that was owned by Tamela Gardner. In so many murder cases, the person of interest is brought in on a separate, unrelated charge while the more serious one is investigated.
Police spokesman Corporal Trinidad Navarro says Wright was charged today with two counts of delivery of cocaine. Wright also was charged July Fifth with aggravated harassment of Gardner and was ordered to have no contact with her.

Police have located the mini van of Tammy Gardner and two victims were found inside murdered. They had mysteriously disappeared from a bar where Gardner reportedly had words with an unidentified ex-boyfriend.
Police in Delaware had been searching for the minivan for days. They hoped it would lead them to a missing man and woman. Apparently, it has.
The vehicle, a 2000 Ford Windstar, was found on a remote path near a man-made hill at a park that is under construction.
That’s when police converged on the scene, but investigators don’t know how long the vehicle had been there or what happened to the man and woman inside.
An autopsy will confirm the identities, but police know the van belongs to 40-year-old Tammy Gardner, who has been missing since last Sunday, along with her companion 41-year-old Gabe Gabrielli.
Both mysteriously disappeared after being last seen at a bar where Gardner reportedly had words with an unidentified ex-boyfriend.
