Daniel slicky went missing on December 2nd 2016 and luckily in this case the Farmington Hills Police Department
investigated her case as a missing case right away and very quickly shifted to a
criminal investigation As Time passed investigators work behind the scenes to gather as much evidence as possible
against Floyd given that they did not have the most crucial piece of evidence of all in any
murder investigation which of course would be Danny's body thousands of man hours went into trying to find Dany and
putting together a case against the suspect meanwhile all the public knew at this juncture was that the police
searched the home of a former security guard and removed some items from the premises in February of
2017 the chief denied that they had a suspect only saying quote we're building a case we are still making progress we
still have potential evidence to send to the lab but then on June 28th 2017 charges were announced no these
were not related to Danny's case these were charges relating to the sexual assault of a jogger in Hines Park in
Leonia in September of 2016 let's go through that case shall we here Captain I'm with you Colonel a
28-year-old woman called 911 and reported to police that she went jogging in Hines Park around 6:00 p.m. she said
that she parked near Joy Road in Farmington Road and ran 4 and A2 miles in Hines Park
she was training for a half marathon on her way back she took a path through a wooded area a man was coming in the
other direction on the path and as the two passed each other the man turned around and grabbed her from behind uhuh
he dragged her into the woods holding her in a choke hold with his arms the man climbed on top of her as he ped B
her to the ground punching her and choking her until she momentarily passed out she managed to yell at him what do
you want she screamed why are you doing this the Man simply answered I just want
sex the woman began pleading with her attacker to let her go and said that she had a family and a daughter it seems she
may have gotten through to the wbe rapist as he got off of her eventually and ran off as soon as the man left the
victim got up and went to go get help she flagged down two cars along hindes drive and called
911 her body was processed and DNA was collected but there was no match in the system but think about how cous and
strong she had to be I mean that's amazing but the jogger was able to provide police with a posit drawing of
the suspect and guess what this suspect look awfully a lot like someone who was now on the police's radar this was Floyd
Russell Galloway Jr yeah so we have this missing girl Danny that they've been looking at law enforcement has spend in
a bunch of time they have a possible suspect in the security guard Floyd and now we have this other attack happen
and the composite drawing looks just like the suspect that you have yeah this is really amazing because uh I've seen a
lot of composite sketches in our time doing our little garage work here captain and this one to me
like you you might as well had the best artist in the world sitting in a chair and staring and looking directly at
Floyd Russell Galloway Jr because it looks identical to him this is one of the best composite sketches that I have
seen yeah this artist would get A+ in my art class so the jogger our victim here
in the park case unfortunately was unable to pick Floyd out of a photo lineup and I think it was twice that she
wasn't able to pick him out of a photo lineup they were going to have to get some more solid evidence than just a
composite sketch according to WWJ news radio cell phone evidence put Floyd at the park on that
day and in some great great police work police compared the DNA taken from the rape victim with DNA that they collected
from Floyd's home in connection with the sicki investigation and it turns out that DNA was a match got him Floyd was
arrested on June 2 7th and charged with kidnapping criminal sexual conduct with intent to commit penetration and assault
with intent to do great bodily harm by strangulation this guy's a dirt bag at this time he was named as a person of
interest in the case of Daniel steslicki and police acknowledged that he was acquainted with Danny Dany and confirmed
that he had been questioned in Danny's case further it was announced that Floyd was also being investigated in
connection with yet another sexual assault case that occurred on June 10th of 2017 in Allen Park this case also
resulted in a sketch of the suspect which strongly resembled the per in the Hines Park case as for Danny's case the
Farmington Hills Police Department chief Chuck nebus stated quote the pieces of the puzzle
have been slowly falling into place since Danielle disappeared on December 2nd but Floyd refused to talk about
Danny's case he repeatedly took the fifth and avoided providing any information to law
enforcement whatsoever as a result of law enforcement linking Floyd to the jogger case from just three months
before Danny's Disappearance in July of 2017 there was a massive search of Hines
Park where the crime was committed this was the largest search for Dany to date authorities were hoping
that Floyd who they're hoping that he may have returned to the park to dispose of Dany there or at least
evidence of the murder of Dany in the Park yeah this was because the Farmington Hills Police Department
worked with FBI profilers who advise them that serial offenders often return to a spot that they have frequented in
the past so this search consisted of 155 police officers FBI agents and cadaver dogs 20
agencies 20 agencies were involved in this search all of the officers were briefed to look for her blue jacket that
we had mentioned uh her black shirt jeans and burgundy Boots the police chief in his public
statement said that law enforcement authorities have expressed since day one that Danielle SS licki was a victim of a
crime the facts of the case led us to believe that she is not alive several air l and water searches have been
conducted at various places throughout the investigation Hines Park is being searched as the result of a recent
Leonia and Farmington Hills joint investigation this investigation has led to criminal charges in Leonia against
Floyd Galloway uh at the time Captain he was listed a as a 30-year-old resident of
Berkeley because the leavon incident occurred in Hines Park it is a location that requires searching there is no
specific information or evidence that leads us that being local law enforcement to believe that Danny's
remains are in the park right quote the public is also asked to look for a tan and brown stripe comforter which could
also be important to this case end quote this is interesting because the chief police the the chief of police would not
discuss how the comforter was suspected to be be related to Danny's case but it seems clear that
officials you know even by his words they're pretty clear we do not believe that she is still alive so what is up
with this comforter well yeah I mean but they had multiple search warrants so we
probably know that they're getting this comforter from his house they took carpet samples they took wood floor
samples right so we have crime scene photos of Floyd's bedroom at the Berkeley home that show a white
comforter on the bed yeah but it turns out that this was not the comforter on the bed at the time of the crime before
the crime It is believed that Floyd's sister-in-law his wife's sister gave the police information that there had been a
striped Brown comforter on the bed but police did not find it during their December 7th search and in fact when
they pulled Floyd's credit card transaction history in the course of investigating him they discovered that
he had purchased a new white $110 comforter at Bed Bath and Beyond on December 4th just two days
after Dany was last seen and to take it a step further Floyd is visible on the Bed Bath and Beyond surveillance video
footage from that day purchasing the white comforter and leaving the store with it and kudos to her for coming
forward because she posted this thing on Facebook uh you know um of Danny basically saying here's this missing
girl that we're looking for and she she didn't believe that her brother-in-law was involved so she's like hey if we
find this girl if we help find this girl that will obviously clear my my brother-in-law but once she posted that
on Facebook her family went nuts her sister was telling her to take it down her family was taken down and she felt
like not only were they had the back of her brother-in-law but they were not telling her things about this missing
girl Danny like she felt like they knew more than they were telling her or police yeah so it it's it's interesting
because as you just pointed out out Floyd's wife's family had his back but it appears with the exception of the
sister-in-law and at some point you know she does say nice things about Floyd she
says he was lovable he was a part of our family we've known him for 10 years everybody really likes the guy he's nice
and very gentle and just look of course I've never had any conversations with with Floyd Galloway I've seen interviews
with him I will say he has what I would describe as like a quiet gentle face he does not kind of chubby just his
appearance does not send off any red flags to me you know he doesn't kind of has the Turtle face he looks very boy
next door to me um chubby Turtle face is what I'll call him well yeah and kind of
a baby a baby face it's just weird to think that Floyd's wife's family would be covering for him yeah I'm I don't
know how much her family knew or was covering for for this young man but um the the opposite of that is is the
sister-in-law because okay so the sister-in-law's name is Elizabeth Rose Newton she was not just Cooperative with
police but as you said Captain was active in the search for Danny so much so is that she was you know putting up
flyers and she was active in any of the search you know some of the searches as well as the Gatherings and such for this
this missing young woman and she's posting online to try to help find Danny as well it's believed that she is the
one that talked to police about the comforter of the missing comforter that police like would have had no idea what
have been missing at all had she not said it now why she has a different opinion of Floyd than the rest of the
family this kind of comes to light later where she says oh he's all creepo she recalled a
conversation that she had with Floyd where he told her and of course this is months before the fact of Danny going
missing mhm but he told her that he was addicted to pornography and he was considering
cheating on his wife yeah so of course she's going to have a much different opinion about this man
than the others a lot of these killers are Mr flicky flickies and this is interesting as well she says look the
police told me about there being eyewitnesses that saw them meaning Floyd her brother-in-law
and the missing young woman Danielle yeah I witnessed as it saw them at the house together at Floyd's house together
on Oxford Street in Berkeley yeah I believe she told this to the media but law enforcement never confirmed this but
I think it's something that they're trying to keep in the back of their pocket so I think that then this might
be a situation that might who knows if if the police were lying to the sister-in-law to try to get information
that she did not have um then that might be one of these situations she ends up telling this to
the media I don't think law enforcement lied to her I just don't think it was something that they wanted to release to
the media yeah she goes on to tell the media that my sister was in the hospital so she wasn't around and the fact that
he meaning Floyd has no explanation for his whereabouts on that day is very interesting as you pointed out Captain
it seems that it was hard for everyone who knew Floyd Galloway to believe that he was guilty of this stuff it seems
that in general he was well-liked and was seen as a totally normal guy he didn't have much of a police record just
a misdemeanor charge for DUI which was a while back this was in 2008 for which he got probation but
nonetheless the sister-in-law continued to stand up for her family who was supportive of Floyd and then as far as
social media goes Captain we have Rich stislicki who posted about how grateful he was for the sister-in-law helping out
in this case in March of 2017 Floyd filed for a personal protection order against the
sister-in-law basically saying that she was harassing and slandering him now Floyd's request was denied by a judge W
ridiculous even though Floyd's White stuck by her husband side during all of this it seems that the Leonia attempted
rape was the last straw for his wife eileene Galloway because she did file for divorce from Floyd while she while
he was awaiting trial now sadly remember she was battling cancer Eileen died in 2018 succumbing to her cancer at at the
young age of just 31 meanwhile in the attempted rape and murder charge from the Hines Park Incident Floyd continued
to deny involvement despite the DNA findings he rejected two separate plea deals before finally accepting his fate
was quite The Negotiator there captain in December of 2017 he did plead guilty to kidnapping criminal sexual conduct
and assault with intent to do bodily harm he was required to register as a sex offender for Life Floyd was forced
to read a statement in court confessing to attempting to rape the jogger he mumbled his way through it and the judge
had to ask him to speak up a number of times he was then sentenced to 16 to 35 years in prison and the stislicki family
was in the courtroom the day that he was sentenced yeah the judge had to say hey
piece of [ __ ] speak up yeah and there's some other interesting evidence that's
going to come out against Floyd as far as the slicky portion of this story goes so police clearly had
Floyd on their radar as a suspect very early on in the investigation it came out later that they had hidden a GPS
tracker on his vehicle for 36 hours before they took the vehicle and impounded it this was in
December of 2016 now we've seen that Witnesses named him as being seen with Dany on the last
day that she was seen and also when law enforcement tracked her phone it appeared to go to an area near Floyd's
home before traveling back to her apartment and then Vanishing from the network police had an idea
where to look for video surveillance footage of Danny's Jeep remember they still wanted to
know when the vehicle returned to the apartment right and its movements so the three significant points of interest in
this case form what looked like a capital T on a map the MetLife building is at the bottom of the te Floyd's
residence is at the right hand portion of the top of the tea and Danny's apartment is the leftand point of the
top of the tea so the drive between the their homes is pretty much a straight line a distance of
14.7 Miles police subpoena footage from some businesses along the Route right from the MetLife complex in Southfield
to Floyd's home in Berkeley and then between Floyd's home and Danny's home they found footage showing Danny's Jeep
Renegade with its visible mud pattern on the sides pulling up to a light heading
eastbound on 11 Mile Road at 5503 p.m. this is just a half mile from Floyd's home then at 7:56 p.m. the same Jeep
arrives westbound on 11 m heading toward Danny's apartment police announced early
on that they were not certain that it was Dany who was driving the jeep on this later trip to her home it is clear
that they believe that it was Floyd driving toward her apartment and that Dany was likely already dead by this
point or at least incapacitated and tied up at his home what is not known or if it is Police
just are not saying is whether her body was transported to some disposal site in
her own vehicle right of course her DNA would be in the vehicle since she she owned it and drove it and we know that
Floyd was a passenger since he was seen by Brandon Williams so his DNA could be in the vehicle as well but Floyd denied
two police seeing Danny that and when the jeep was found investigators noted that the passenger door handle appeared
to have been wiped clean apparently whoever that passenger was identified as Floyd of course but
whoever it was did not want evidence left behind that they were in the vehicle yeah and look we know that Floyd
has attacked other women so there's a some kind of level of criminal sophistication because these are
fantasies he's probably having over and over so then he's also looking for ways to cover his tracks it just seems like
law enforcement were were able to pick him as a suspect quickly and and move in on
him and collect this evidence uh to start building a case yeah they're looking to build a case against this guy
they're looking to collect evidence to support the idea that Dany was inside his home or possibly even killed inside
of Floyd's home on that day now after a couple of years Danny's parents decided to seek an order to declare Dany as
deceased since she was gone they were left trying to handle all of Danny's Affairs including bills and such there
were college loans car payments and other bills some of these were on auto pay her parents had their own jobs to
worry about as well as the constant public appearances they engaged in to help find their daughter and they did
not need the added financial burden of paying these bills they said that based on the information they were receiving
from the authorities they believed that Dany was no longer with them unwillingly
they had cleaned out Danny's apartment in February of 2017 and taken her cat to live with them saying at the time that
logically they recognized that she was not coming home and it's likely that the prosecutor told them that obtaining a
death certificate was a good idea to bolster the case for murder in 2018 judge Callahan of the Probate Court
issued a death certificate for Dany stating that she died on December 2nd 2006 [Music]

joining us cheers to you colonel in early 2019 the Michigan Attorney General's office took over Danny's case and a
brand new AG this is Dana nessle reviewed two years worth of evidence compiled by the Farmington Hills
detectives and others who assisted in this investigation and in March of 2019 charges were finally filed against
Floyd Galloway for first deegree premeditated murder of Danielle stislicki Nestle said that after taking
office as attorney general in January she reviewed the details of the case and thought that there was enough evidence
there to charge Galloway she described the evidence against him as compelling she felt that at this point not much
additional evidence would be forthcoming and they were going to have to proceed with what they had she stated that the
longer you wait the more issues with the evidence come up Witnesses forget things
uh material evidence degrades over time so she wants to push forward with these charges now she doesn't think her case
is getting any better against this guy right nessle said that she'd seen multiple cases of nobody murders
prosecuted successfully and had no doubt that they would that that would happen here she brought in a special prosecutor
to handle the case the very experienced noons Jamie pal Horowitz now Floyd was arraigned on
March 6th per Michigan law a not guilty plea was entered on his behalf so where do
they go from here what's the next step so the next step captain and Floyd's Journey Through the legal system was a
preliminary hearing this is an extended Hearing in front of a judge some other jurisdictions use a grand jury with
citizens determine the outcome but the purpose of the preliminary hearing or exam is for the judge to determine
whether there is probable cuse enough evidence to prove the charges the the the charg crimes were in fact
committed and if so the defendant would be bound over for a full-blown trial to determine
guilt as in a trial in the preliminary exam the burden of proof is on the prosecution and the proceedings is in
essence actually like a it's like a mini trial almost right and in a stroke of Lu
for True Crime devotees the entire proceedings for this case which Spann about two days and took
place in September of 2019 was videoed and is available for viewing on YouTube the special
prosecutor who was brought into to handle this proceeding for the state was that Jamie pal Horwitz and because she
had to show probable cause to believe that a crime was in fact committed but had no body because Danny was never
found she had to give the judge a lot of evidence more so than you would have to
if in fact there was a body and she did not disappoint now I should point out captain that the evidence itself against
Floyd is pretty much circumstantial but it is very possible that the prose ution has held back some
evidence even even with that exam going on that they are reserving some of it for the actual trial well Floyd has this
history the more you pile on him to prove that you know that he's guilty of a crime he might confess to it he might
end up uh striking a deal with them on this case so let's go through some of the evidence that we know that they have
against Floyd we know that they have two eyewitnesses who saw Floyd with Dany on
the evening that she disappeared these are the co-workers right and we also know that Floyd called in sick to work
for that same day so he's unaccounted for we think that it's possible that some of Floyd's neighbors saw Danny's
Jeep at Floyd's home or maybe even possibly Dany herself we know that Danny's phone was
at or near Floyd's home on the evening of her disappearance and went off the network
permanently the new information that came out at the preliminary exam is as follows detectives tracked Floyd's phone
he left home after 10:00 a.m. on December 2nd and after running an Aon he drove near the MetLife building his
phone pinged off of a tower there at 11:14 a.m. so the presumption here is that he was verifying that Danny's car
was in the parking lot that she was in fact at work right right setting up stalking her from there he went to the
hospital to visit his wife who is in there ill with cancer then he left the hospital and was
home by 2:58 p.m. around this time he text a friend his name is Brian Osborne that he was heading to work remember
Floyd's shift would have been from 3: to 11:00 p.m. that day but he called off and then his phone went home at
3:54 his phone started moving West in the direction of the metti building which would be an 11-minute drive from
his location yeah I find this a little fishy I mean he might just be answering the question oh I got to go to work so
that's the answer and lying about it or he's possibly establishing some kind of Alibi yeah he's supposed to be at work
he's just letting somebody know either you know it's either establishing an alibi or his friends asking him what
he's up to and he's just saying I'm going to work because I'm going to be busy abducting and murdering for the
next several hours his phone Floyd's phone was then turned off from 3:56 p.m. until 6:19
p.m. this is the time during which it is believed that he killed Danny at his home at 6:20 p.m. his phone came back on
and it was at his home it was located you know pinging in that Berkeley area right at this time his phone and Danny's
phone they were pinging from identical locations which would put both of the phones at or near Floyd's address yeah
Floyd's phone remained on at his home until 7:38 at which time it went it went off
again then starting at 7:53 remember Danny's phone started moving West from Floyd's neighborhood to
her own neighborhood arriving at 8:16 his phone was still off Danny's phone was permanently shut off at 8:16
p.m. and then at 9:39 Floyd's phone came back on and it's now located at his home so two of the detectives this is
detective Garrett and Molly who were very very smart and did some great work here so once they saw
that Floyd's phone they saw the movement and patterns of his phone they figured out that he drove to the MetLife
building on the afternoon of the 2 around 4M and waited there with his car hood up to lure Dany over to the vehicle
yeah it was like kind of like a Ted Bundy ruse then he somehow persuaded her to give him a ride home to his home
which would be in the opposite direction of her destination Rich szaki told the press
that his daughter was the type of person that would help someone out in need and
he hoped that her generosity and giving was not her final undoing Witnesses saw all of this and the video surveillance
footage shows Danny's Car moving toward his home and then a few hours later moving away from Floyd's house and
toward her apartment detectives figured that Floyd must have attacked and killed
Dany in his home and then driven her vehicle back to her apartment where he left it to try to make it look as though
she had gone home after work and whatever went down happened after after she went home right the fact that he
parked it in Danny's usual parking spot is pretty disturbing right because this means that he had likely seen it in
that spot before meaning he had tracked her followed her was driving by her apartment when she was home right the
question was how did Floyd then get back to the MetLife building where he left his vehicle
after driving her car back to her apartment right he could have taken a Uber or got a ride or something well
what they figured out was the detectives canvas the area near Danny's apartment and discovered that there was a Tim
Hortons at 10 Mile Road in Grand River which was about it was about 3/4 of a mile from
Danny's apartment old Timmy hoos and there on the video surveillance footage from the night of December 2nd
they saw Floyd Galloway yeah he walked into the Tim Hortons at 8:38 p.m paid cash for a coffee and asked to use the
business's phone to call a taxi cab now this is interesting too he was well he's
he called a taxi cab using a phone number written on a yellow sticky note that he pulled from his pocket like a
fake number the cab picked him up around 905 p.m. and guess what the the cab driver Sylvia Morris testified at the
preliminary exam that she remembered picking up Floyd she identified that the passenger as Floyd and said that he told
her that his car was broken down and he needed a ride to visit his girlfriend at
an address that he gave to her and this would be this is interesting he gives her an address to an apartment building
called Woodbridge Apartments located at uh 25325 groden Drive in Southfield she drives him there and
drops him off again he pays cash he paid for the coffee with cash he pays the cab
for cash this is more evidence that his movements everything he's doing is premeditated that he he planned a lot of
this out before he even got Danny to give him a ride back to his place yeah I mean he was stalking her he's obsessed
with her like you said he's coming up with all these plans ways to cover his tracks so they found surveillance
footage from the apartment building where the taxi cab dropped off Floyd this surveillance footage shows Floyd
Galloway getting out of a taxi cab at 9:20 p.m. walking toward the apartment building right okay then the cab drives
off and suddenly he turns around and starts walking away from the building and now he's walking in the direction of
the MetLife building which is just 300 yards away down Telegraph Road then at around I have a marker of
9:37 p.m. a Buick believed to be Floyd's vehicle was captured on video traveling
eastbound on 11 Mile in the direction of his home and of course if this is his vehicle his vehicle was working just
fine but then there was more on December 9th just one week after Dany vanished detectives walked the path from dany's
apartment to the Tim Horton examining every inch of the ground along the way and sure enough yeah along Grand River
Avenue on the way to the Tim Hortons they located Danny's missing Keys remember it has that distinctive
keychain yeah they found this in the grass near a highway entrance ramp on the other side of the ramp they found
Danny Slick's Fitbit this was in the path that Floyd would have walked from her place to the Tim Horton
now the Fitbit had been a bit of hold back information the police never told the public about the Fitbit and that's
interesting because we've seen in other cases a lot of times these these fitbits
you can you can locate them and they were probably hoping to do so uh electronically but were unable to for
whatever reason still a clever idea to follow the walking path the detectives continue to ask the public to look for
Danny's Keys even though they had actually found them only a week after her disappearance meaning if they get a
confession or if they get a guy in interrogation room this is information they're hoping to pull from the person
that actually committed the crime not somebody that's just making it up as they go
along and then the icing on the cake was when detectives executed the search warrant on December 7th in a surprise
search of Floyd's home they saw very quickly that a small patch of carpet uh had been replaced in the
master bedroom next to the bed this had been done they believed on December 2nd or shortly after because
they discovered that trash pickup from Floyd's home on Friday December 2nd uh his wife had text him from the hospital
reminding him to put out the trash which he acknowledged yes I'll put out the trash and scraps of carpet were found in
the trash at his house indicating that he had made the the carpet repairs after December 2nd so crime scene Tex removed
the carpet around that the patched area and lo and behold biological material on
the carpet near the patched area was traced using DNA and they got a match to Danielle s licki which proves that she
was inside his place so this DNA evidence Captain is going to lead investigators to how they believed
that Dany was killed because the DNA found on the carpet was not necessarily from blood
evidence it was from something that they called a a purge all right so the medical examiner testified that the DNA
possibly came from a clear fluid called Purge that he based his determination of
the manner of death meaning he believed that Dany had been murdered in that bedroom of Floyd's house and that the
cause of death which could not be determined because there's no body but he says was
likely asphixiation smothering strangling or choking or possibly even hanging because of this purging on the
carpet yeah and so it's going to be it was easily determined that they the charges were warranted that the crimes
that the prosecutions said were committed did in fact they were committed by someone and this of course
is going to lead to the decision that Floyd Galloway should be charged with first-degree Premed premeditated murder
in this case the problem we have here today Captain we still do not know where where Danny is Right which sucks
for the family so there remains quite a few unanswered questions such as how did
Floyd lure her in into the house because it doesn't seem that it I mean he may have forced her into the
home but we know she was in a hurry to get to dinner with her friend and driving Floyd home was already way out
of her way to help out this guy and the terrible truth is that no one other than
Floyd Galloway knows how he got her into the house but we seen with the text message possible gun before where he he
offered up a drinking game to try to get her to come back to his house uh some speculate her being a cat lover he may
have told her that he had a new cat or found one uh let me give you some gas money I just got to go inside and get it
you can come in with me there's any number of ways that he could have tricked this nice young woman into
following him into his home and we also don't know not only where Danny's body is but how it was
transported for disposal if it was her vehicle or one of the three vehicles that
were uh seized by police that belonged to Floyd Galloway and his family we do know that detectives believe that Dany
was dead by 6:20 p.m. when Floyd's phone came back online and it stayed at his house until
7:38 when it was turned back off and Floyd deposited her vehicle at her apartment complex by 8:16 p.m. walked to
the Tim Hortons and then got a cab to take him near his vehicle obviously he did not have Danny's body with him at
that point so he either got rid of her corpse between 738 and 8:16 on the drive to Independence Green
Apartments Danny's apartment or after he returned home around 9:40 p.m. that night right
his wife was in the hospital for another week so he had plenty of time to do whatever it is that he did without
rushing to cover his bases all we know is that by the time his home was searched on December 7th Dany was was
long gone again I hope they're able to put enough pressure on him get enough evidence built against him so he could
at least tell the family where their uh daughter and loved one is the other thing too there seems to be some thought
at least or possibility that some of the investigators may have thought that Floyd may have put Danny's body into a
dumpster because we mentioned already that many dumpsters in the area right were emptied or searched during these
initial searches for Dany so much so that they did search the landfill at some point as well that'd be hard now in
April of this year year the Detroit Free Press reported that they had obtained access to some documents relating to the
upcoming trial of Floyd Galloway the judge had made a ruling about a piece of evidence that she would allow the state
to present in Floyd's murder trial this was a conversation that an is licky recalled with her daughter Dany about
two months before Dany disappeared right the two were casually talking and Floyd's name came up because an had seen
Floyd walking Dany to her car right Dany told her mom that at the time Floyd said
something very odd to her which was that he could make a body disappear it seems that the documents
relating to this ruling were released to the media by mistake and were in violation of a seal
on all materials relating to to the case imposed by the judge early on this is some of the most recent information to
come out in this case and this of course is something that they are going to allow at the trial well but is that
going to be held up because of covid now as of now Floyd Galloway's trial is delayed because of covid Judge McMillan
pointed out that in light of the pandemic there are only they are only able to conduct one jury selection per
day day for the entire courthouse and are able to conduct only one trial per floor there is a pre-trial status
hearing scheduled for January 14th 2021 but no trial date has yet been set when the trial does happen it will be
fascinating to see the full scope of all of the evidence that the state of Michigan has against Floyd yeah I
believe they have more in their back pocket but we have eyewitnesses that put him at atti we
have eyewitnesses that put him in her vehicle they have eyewitness that put him in the vehicle without her they have
eyewitnesses of him and her at his place some sort of evidence whether that's DNA
blood from the carpet fibers to the wood planks that they ripped up and DNA both
hers and his well and with in regards to Floyd Galloway this is not a man that appears
to be dangerous there's nothing in his appearance that sets off any red flags and that's what's so scary about this
situation and in telling this story of what happened to Danny here we have a guy that clearly planned this thing out
took a lot of effort into covering his tracks so much so that they have not been able to locate and find her remains
but this True Crime Story it really has elements of stories that we've told before the lone jogger being attacked in
the park how many jogger cases have we covered it's it's appalling I mean it's it's shocking at the number of joggers
that we've covered that have been attacked and and we're we're only talking about a very small amount and
the grand scale of things but then you take it a step further you know what are we not
supposed to be scared of at this point this woman just went to work and spoke to somebody that she knew and somebody
that she probably thought was harmless yeah he was a security guard at her work they're there to protect you yeah and
and he he took advantage of somebody that was willing to help others and he used that to set a trap for her and he
very likely fixated on her for months months leading up to this and under the the quiet shell calm demeanor of this
guy that we see on the outside there clearly is a very very evil sick and twisted person inside a psychopath I
hope that this trial does not get delayed and I thought that one thing was that was absolutely brilliant was they
were interviewing a lot of the investigators and police officers that work so very hard on this case and did
such a good job not only in Danny's case but also the the related case that took
place in the park against Floyd but one of the police officers she said unfortunately there is no real
closure here now we've seen this time and time again and we know it to be true but in Floyd's case and in the case
against Floyd having seen his push back even when they had his DNA in the rape case where he twice did not agree to
plead guilty right even though they had DNA I almost feel like with Floyd he's going to continue to push back and push
this thing to trial unless they find Danny's body if they find Danny's body he might in fact plead guilty to this
and a trial could be avoided uh back to the statement of the police officer what
she said was was so true and it's something we need to keep in mind here as we still continue to search for
answers in dany's case she says that there is no closure and even when Danny's remains are located there will
not be closure for the family the only thing that we have been able to provide to her family is
