Danielle Stislicki Update: Police Crime Lab Processing Evidence In Disappearance


Michigan woman Danielle Stislicki vanished two months ago and so far, police have remained fairly tight-lipped about the investigation into her mysterious disappearance. Authorities are now reportedly willing to share one bit of information regarding evidence related to Danielle’s case.

Farmington Hills Police revealed that evidence is now being processed at the Michigan State Police crime lab, according to Patch. Assistant Chief Matt Koehn told Patch that investigators are waiting for the process to be completed as they work with “…the Michigan State Police, the Oakland County Sheriff’s Office and the FBI.”

Koehn explained to Patch that examining this evidence is a very slow process but police “…continue to work on the case daily and have dedicated a ton of resources to finding Danielle.”

Additionally, Koehn stated that law enforcement is in “almost daily contact” with Danielle’s family and they frequently “exchange text messages.” Koehn told Patch the missing woman’s family “has been the strength of this case.”

The evidence Koehn may be referring to could include a mattress obtained from the home of a security guard who once worked in the same building as Danielle, according to Fox News, which also reported that DNA tests were being run on the item confiscated by authorities. This information was reportedly relayed to Fox News by an investigator speaking on the condition of anonymity.

Fox News also learned that three vehicles, including Danielle’s Jeep, are also being tested. The news media outlet also reported that police believe Danielle was kidnapped after leaving her job at MetLife where she worked with her mother.

Danielle, 28, went missing sometime in the late afternoon of December 2, after leaving work at around 5 p.m. She had plans later in the evening to meet a lifelong female friend for dinner after first stopping at her apartment on the way home from work.

When Danielle failed to show up for their planned dinner, her friend became worried and headed to the Independence Green apartment complex where Danielle lives. When the friend arrived, she found Danielle’s Jeep Renegade parked near her apartment. Danielle did not show up for work on Saturday, the following morning.

Local law enforcement later announced that inside Danielle’s locked Jeep was her purse, her identification, and her credit cards. Danielle’s keys and cell phone were nowhere to be found, which police announce is very suspicious.

Authorities announced her key ring contains a unique key charm consisting of a yellow figure with a green body and yellow legs. Danielle’s cell phone is a Samsung Galaxy Core Prime in a rose gold case.
