Mother Went Missing 11 Years Ago

WASHINGTON -- District officials have scheduled a news conference for Tuesday morning to discuss major developments in the case of woman who went missing 11 years ago.
Mayor Adrian Fenty and Police Chief Cathy Lanier will hold the news conference at 10:30 a.m. to discuss the case of Shaquita Bell, who was last seen 11 years ago leaving her grandmother's Alexandria, Va., home with her estranged boyfriend.

In July of last year, K-9 units found possible clues in a Fort Washington, Md., field. D.C. and Prince George's County police departments worked at the Old Fort Road site with a Smithsonian team in August after police received a tip from Bell's estranged boyfriend.
Bell was last seen at about 1 p.m. on June 27, 1996.
Police said Bell left her grandmother's house on East Raymond Avenue in Alexandria with her estranged boyfriend and father of her youngest child, Michael Dickerson, just before she disappeared.
Relatives said they were perplexed by Bell's decision to leave with him.
A month earlier, Bell called police to report that the estranged boyfriend had beaten her during a squabble in the Laurel apartment that they shared. He was arrested, and Bell moved back in with her grandmother in Alexandria.
On the day of Bell's disappearance, the estranged boyfriend had driven Bell to take two of her three children to a doctor's appointment. Family members said she called at 2 p.m. and said she was on the way home, and that was the last time anybody heard from her. The boyfriend told the family that they had gone into southeast Washington, where they got into an argument and she left him.
The estranged boyfriend was convicted of a drug violation in 1989 and is currently serving a 15-year prison term after being convicted of beating Bell a month before she disappeared.
Police said Bell worked at a Giant Food bakery and did not have a criminal record.
No murder charges were ever filed in the case because her body has never been found.

thanks for this alert, mm. It's nice to see the police able to say something about this missing mother after 11 years.

We'll look forward to the announcement.
