But officers said nothing was found during that search.
Twelve years after her disappearance, Parker’s parents remain desperate for answers on her whereabouts.
And they continue to work hard to keep the cold case relevant.
Parker’s father, Brad, and her stepmother, Gayle, released this statement for news outlets to share with the public on this anniversary of their daughter’s disappearance:
“This is a reminder to mention that our Michelle is still an important member of our family and never to be forgotten. We cannot express enough or imagine the many wonderful events and holidays that we have missed all these years in her absence. It’s heartbreaking as each year passes and nothing brings answers, closure or justice to her case. We just want to take this opportunity to tell you these brief thoughts in case you wish to mention this high profile case to your listeners tomorrow. It may be old news to some, but always fresh to us, especially when another year comes upon us.”
In 2022, Channel 9 aired a special called “The Search,” highlighting cases of missing women in Central Florida, including Parker. You can watch the special here.
