Police Make It Clear They're After Parents In Case Of Missing 11-Year-Old

perezhilton.com:

Madalina Cojocari (pictured above, left) still hasn’t been found — and law enforcement are becoming increasingly suspicious of her parents… As you know, the 11-year-old girl went missing from her home in Cornelius, North Carolina in early November but her parents failed to report her missing until 22 days later.

Her stepdad Christopher Palmiter (pictured above, top right) reported her missing to her school, but not the police — it wasn’t until the school couldn’t do anymore did they finally call the cops.

The FBI was quickly contacted and they’ve been working with the Cornelius Police Department as well as the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation round the clock to find the missing child.

Law enforcement were immediately suspicious of Palmiter, 60, and the girl’s mother Diana Cojocari (pictured above, bottom right), 37, because they had failed to report her missing for nearly a month.

They were arrested on December 17 and charged with failure to report the disappearance of a child to law enforcement. Since then the FBI has released surveillance video of the last time Madalina was seen, as well as some new pictures so hopefully someone will recognize her.
