The facebook above says "no police involvement'. From the uncle - very strange.

From the Facebook Page Help Find Abby Roberts:

This is David Cummings Commander of Red Rock Search and Rescue... Please share this page with all you know. The more people we have aware and looking the sooner we can solve this mystery. Thursday we will annouce a piece of evidence we need to find and we will ask everyone in Clark County for your help to search for it..... PLEASE PASS THE WORD...
 
Nothing new for over a year. :(. I wonder where HE is. Very sad.
 
Still missing; this story was written in June of this year. Although both Abby and Phillip are missing, only Abby's family is interviewed as Phillip's family declined to comment (which I'm just noting and not implying anything). Abby's family believes that Phillip may have been responsible. Investigators list both disappearances as suspicious and they both could be victims of homicide.

"Frustration, desperation in cold case of missing mother"

http://lasvegassun.com/news/2015/jun/22/frustration-desperation-cold-case-missing-mother/

Roberts, a young mother who vanished from her eastside home nearly three years ago, is special to the detectives. Among hundreds of Las Vegas disappearances they’ve investigated over careers spanning more than a dozen years, Roberts’ haunts Wildemann and Jensen more than any other as they approach retirement in a year. They know they are close to cracking the case; they just need the right witness or evidence to surface.

Jensen and Wildemann don’t have proof, but they believe Roberts is dead. They’ve spent years looking for her body, poring over evidence and asking dozens of people for clues. Yet for all their experience, they’re stumped.

Police didn’t find any signs of foul play at the couple’s home or any evidence directly connecting a suspect, but Roberts’ relatives suspect Phillip Johnson, her boyfriend of one year and the father of her then-2-month-old baby, played a part in her disappearance.

Family members told police Johnson had plenty of motive. Roberts was planning to leave Johnson because she believed he was unfaithful, her family members said. Roberts and Johnson were moving out of their new house after living there only a month.

Hoping and praying that answers come soon for the loved ones.

Johnson, circa 2012; 2012 Chevrolet Cruze
  • Missing Since 09/29/2012
  • Missing From Las Vegas, Nevada
  • Classification Endangered Missing
  • Sex Male
  • Race Black
  • Date of Birth 08/05/1985 (38)
  • Age 27 years old
  • Height and Weight 5'5, 175 pounds

  • Associated Vehicle(s) Unregistered black 2012 Chevrolet Cruze (accounted for)

  • Distinguishing Characteristics African-American male. Black hair, brown eyes. Johnson has a hernia scar on his abdomen.

Details of Disappearance​

Johnson and his live-in girlfriend of one year, Abby Roberts, disappeared from their home in Las Vegas, Nevada on September 29, 2012. They disappeared together with an unregistered black 2012 Chevrolet Cruze; a photo of a similar vehicle is posted with this case summary.

Both of them worked for the postal service. After a week passed without Roberts showing up for work at the post office, her family conducted a welfare check and found the home vacant.

On the evening of October 3, Johnson left his and Roberts's two-month-old son, as well as his son from a previous relationship, with his mother in Torrance, California. He was driving his and Roberts's car at the time; it was later located in Compton, California.

Roberts wasn't seen with him in Torrance and neither of them have been seen or heard from since. They were both reported missing on October 9.

Although there was no evidence of foul play in the home and the police haven't named Johnson as a suspect, Roberts's family believes he may have harmed her. They stated she'd been planning to leave him because she thought he'd been unfaithful.

A metal trash can which Johnson purchased shortly before he disappeared and kept in the garage also vanished at the same time he and Roberts did. There had been a fire in the trash can that left a scorch mark on the garage floor and ash and soot stains on the ceiling.

Authorities stated Roberts and Johnson are missing under suspicious circumstances. Their cases remain unsolved.
