That is getting to be a tired excuse..."She ran off with another man." And if by some chance she did,it was probably to get away from an abuser.

Still,I believe she would have contacted her family. They did make an arrest in this case,another cop that worked
with her husband but I don't know what became of that.
Probably nothing or we'd find out.

Do you think the media doesn't want to touch this because of the police influence? I mean,her husband was a cop,the guy they charged was a cop....

What a load of crap. The family has our sympathies and support. There's nothing worse than not knowing.  

If this hasn't gone to trial,I'm wondering if the judge imposed a gag order on the counsel of both sides to insure he gets a fair trial.

It is sad for the family,they need that closure. Hopefully someone will crack and wind up copping a plea and her remains will be recovered.   

Hahaha, what can I say.  I should have gone into some type of law enforcement.

Hahahahaha, me a lawyer hahahaha. That brings a huge smile to my face, for reasons I can't disclose on here hahaha. Anyway, FINALLY an update on this case!

The trial for her estranged hubby is set to begin Aug 17th. They still have not found her body, he still claims he's innocent, that she's not dead and has run off with another man. We shall see what happens. I hope he fries.

Sorry gals, I've been busy. The trial has finally begun. In fact, it's almost over with. Sorry I couldn't tell you this before now, haven't had a chance! Anyway, while they still haven't found Theresa, they have shown exactly how psycho her estranged hubby is, how scared she was of him, and how scared many other people currently are of him. He not only had domestic violence issues with Theresa, he had them with other ex girlfriends and ex wives as well. He threatened violence towards himself, and the families of almost every woman he's ever dated seriously or married. He's a lot more whacko than I thought. He was expected to take the stand in his own defense, but as of yesterday, has not done so. One thing Sam Parker has said, actually bragged about, to almost anyone who would listen to his nonsense is "I could bury a body in rural Wlaker County, Ga and no one would ever find it." He actually used that threat towards numerous women, including Theresa, her sisters, and mother. They've also introduced compelling physical evidence that can tie him to at least harming Theresa on the night she disappeared. We'll see what the jury says. I'll let you all know when they return with the verdict.

Jury began deliberations today. I have to be honest. I really think it could go either way.

Well, Sam Parker will be doing time, but it's anyone's guess right now. He's facing numerous charges, including murder. On the murder charge, the jury is split 8-4, so far ( I was afraid this might happen.) On the charges of making false statements, violation of oath of office, and computer invasion of privacy, they have reached guilty verdicts. They are still in deliberations at this time as to the murder charge. Theresa Parker's body still has not been found. She was a 911 dispatcher in Walker Co, Ga, at the time of her disapperance on March 21st, 2007.

GUILTY! GUILTY!GUILTY! Sam Parker was JUST FOUND GUILTY OF MURDERING HIS WIFE. Though her body has never been found, I hope this will bring some closure for her family. He was sentenced to life in prison. He was found not guilty on an invasion of privacy charge. I am so relieved. Sam Parker terrorized almost every woman he ever dated and married, as well as their families, and their friends. He is a true animal, that at one time carried a badge. I am so glad this animal is going to a cage where he belongs!

I came across this about the sentencing.
I didn't have any pre-concieved idea of what he looked like,but man. Pathetic.

There are so many similarities in their cases it's creepy. Both were cops, both had been married multiple times, both were arrested for murdering their wives, they're around the same age, both had histories of domestic violence. It's scary.

It makes you wonder if something has run amuck in the law enforcement community. I'm a big supporter of our men and women in blue. But I have to wonder how it's happening time and time and time again that these psychos somehow wind up passing the psychological testing portion in their quest to become a police officer. The last things guys like this need is a badge and a gun. So I wonder, if the stress of being a cop for so many years turned them into mental cases, or were they that way before they became cops? Either way, something needs to be done.
