Molly Dattilo has been missing since July 6, 2004 and has not been seen or heard from since. Molly Dattilo was a student at Eastern Kentucky University; however, attended classes Indiana University-Purdue University at Indianapolis in 2004. New information has been released by her family as to the final known steps of Molly Dattilo.
VIDEO
Description: (Picture)
- At the time of her disappearance, Molly Dattilo was described as being about 5 feet tall
- 100 pounds, with an athletic build
- shoulder-length, light brown hair
- green eyes
- a dime-size birthmark on the outside of her upper right arm.
But yesterday Ben Dattilo said the family has learned she later met an Indianapolis man at her apartment complex, went on a rowboat ride with him on a lake at the complex, and then went to eat dinner with him at a nearby Taco Bell.
Then, he said, the pair went to a gas station, where Molly Dattilo tried to phone a friend. But the call was disconnected when the friend answered, he said.
“We have every reason to believe she placed her last phone call in (the man’s) presence from this location,” Ben Dattilo said. “We do not know what happened after this phone call, but it’s our family’s sincerest hope that others may have information about what happened that night, what happened to Molly or where she is now.”
The Courier-Journal is not naming the man because he has not been charged with a crime or named by police as a suspect. (Courier Journal)
The police are not saying whether this man last known being with Molly is a suspect or providing names.

Private investigators believe Molly Dattilo spent the evening she vanished — July 6, 2004 — in Indianapolis with a 33-year-old man whom she had met that day at a friend’s apartment, according to Dattilo’s brother, Ben Dattilo.
Ben Dattilo said he wouldn’t speculate on whether the man had anything to do with the disappearance. However, police said Thursday that while they also believe the man, John E. Shelton, was with Molly Dattilo on the night she vanished, they don’t consider him a suspect.

Last June everyone wondered why Jennifer Hagel Smith settled with Royal Caribbean. I 
guess there were over 1 million reasons why Jennifer Hagel Smith settled the law suit with Royal Caribbean following the disappearance of her fiancee, George Allen Smith IV.
Royal Caribbean Cruises has agreed to pay more than $1 million to the estate of a Connecticut man who vanished from his honeymoon cruise of the Mediterranean in 2005.
The Florida-based company will pay $950,000 to the estate of George Allen Smith IV and reimburse his widow, Jennifer Hagel Smith, for legal costs up to $110,000. Hagel Smith will start a fund in memory of her husband with an initial donation of $25,000 that the cruise line will match, according to a copy of the settlement obtained by The Associated Press. (Fox News)

It is hard to believe that is what one’s life is worth. The rush to a settlement had raised the 
eyebrows of many who followed the case. What is most puzzling is the continued admissions that some how Jennifer Hagel Smith will be able to use any records that she gains from Royal Caribbean against them in the future. I am sure their is very fine and legal print that Royal Caribbean attorneys put in this settlement that states otherwise.
Hagel Smith noted that the settlement also gives her access for the first time to records kept by the cruise line, including vessel logs, security reports, door activity records, photographs, witness statements and correspondence with the FBI.
“My single goal continues to be to find answers regarding how George died,” Hagel Smith said in a statement. “Reaching a settlement in this case in no way shuts down the investigation.”

Its happened again, this time aboard Cunnard’s QU2. A 62 year old woman has been reported missing and presumed to have gone overboard.
It was believed the 62-year-old went overboard on Hogmanay during the £2000-a-head cruise.
Officers boarded the luxury liner, which carries 1900 passengers and more than 1000 crew, when it returned to its home port of Southampton yesterday.
The alarm had been raised on Sunday when the woman was reported missing by her husband as the ship returned from the island of Madeira in the Atlantic. The captain of the QE2 did turn the ship around to retrace the route as well as a sea & air rescue was conducted. All to no avail.
A search was immediately launched by the crew, but no sign of the woman was found. (The Daily Record)
Mystery surrounds QE2′s missing woman
The woman, a German national, was reported missing from the 67,000-tonne Cunard liner by her husband on Sunday.
The ship was in Portuguese waters between Madeira and its home port of Southampton at the time.

Hampshire Police spokeswoman Lucy Dibdin said: “Our officers are working closely with staff to ascertain what has happened, and are speaking to ship’s crew, passengers and the missing woman’s husband.”
Detective Inspector Dean Gower said: “It is too early at this stage to speculate as to exactly what has happened but we do not believe there are suspicious circumstances at this time.”

The lawsuit against CNN and Nancy Grace filed by the family of Melinda Duckett has been moved from Circuit Court to Federal Court.
A wrongful death lawsuit filed against CNN’s Nancy Grace, claiming she pushed the mother of a missing toddler to suicide through aggressive questioning on her talk show, has been moved to federal court.
The case was moved from Circuit Court in the Lake County seat of Tavares to U.S. District Court in Ocala, according to a notice of removal filed Dec. 20.
Lawyers for Grace and Atlanta-based CNN asked that the case be transferred to federal court, a move allowed when opposing parties in a lawsuit reside or are headquartered in different states. The provision ensures a state court will not be biased in favor of a party from its own state. (Gainesville Sun)
The lawsuit also names Joshua Duckett, Trenton Duckett’s father as well. The Eubanks, who filed the lawsuit on behalf of the estate of Melinda Duckett is also asking for a court ordered accounting of the Trenton Duckett Family Charitable Trust Fund.
Trenton’s father, Joshua Duckett, who was estranged from his wife, also was named in the lawsuit, though he had filed a response in Circuit Court demanding that he be dropped from the case.
The Eubanks want a court-ordered accounting of the Trenton Duckett Family Charitable Trust Fund, which Joshua Duckett established to solicit donations to help him search for his missing son. Their lawsuit said they “seek to ensure that any and all funds donated for locating [Trenton] are used for said purposes and not for any ill-conceived or improper purpose . . .”
The fund is run through helpfindtrenton.com. (Orlando Sentinel)

Coreen Wiese has been missing since November 8, 2006 from Buxton, ME. The sophomore at Bonny Eagle High School never returned home from school that day. It was originally thought that Coreen Wiese may have committed suicide. Then possibly that she faked her death and was a possible runaway. It is now being reported that Coreen Wiese may have been seen hitchhiking the day she disappeared. According to Don Blake of Limington, ME, he states that he positively saw Coreen Wiese hitchhiking on November 8.
Don Blake of Limington said he is positive he saw Wiese on Wednesday, Nov. 8.
“I saw the girl the day she disappeared,” Blake said. “She was hitchhiking.”
Blake said he was traveling east on Route 25, toward Portland, when he saw a teenage girl hitchhiking sometime between 10 and 10:30 a.m. that day. He has told his account of the sighting to the FBI.
The girl’s hair looked “wet and straggly,” Blake said. He recalled thinking that the girl looked young to be hitching a ride. After seeing published photos, he said, he has no doubt the girl he spotted was Wiese.
He said she was hitchhiking toward Cornish. Blake said a blue van pulled off the road near Town Line Billiards, a short distance from the bridge. The driver rolled down a window, and she walked toward the van, Blake said. (KeepMECurrent)

Erica Bradley has been missing since early November of 2006 in Allendale, SC. Now Tim Miller and Texas EquuSearch have joined he search for the missing 17 year old Bradley.
The search attempts up to this point have turned up pieces of evidence here and there, but none of them led to Erica. Now, as time continues to pass and the trail gets colder by the day, the family says they’re more determined than ever to get answers.
Erica Bradley’s mother Jackie and the rest of the family will leave no stone unturned until they find her.
“I want to see her walk through those doors,” Jackie Bradley told News 12. “It’s been hard not knowing where she’s at.”
The trail has been a hard and long one for the entire family. Erica disappeared November 6 after leaving her job at a local Hardees. Since then, law enforcement turned up clothes, socks and shoes, pieces of hair extensions, and other things in the woods. But so far, those leads haven’t been enough. (WRDW)
With the leads not providing enough clues as to Erica Bradley’s whereabouts, enter Tim Miller and Texas Equusearch volunteers to the help.
“We want to search every square inch…and I truly don’t feel she’s very far away from us,” said Equusearch director Tim Miller.
Miller and his group are combing a few hundred square miles on foot, four wheelers, and with the help of a well-trained sense of smell. Miller says the mild landscape, relatively flat and dry, ill help the mission.
“This family needs closure. This town does,” Miller said. “It’s a terrible loss.”
