WINTER HAVEN | A former boyfriend of a missing 22-year-old Winter Haven woman has not spoken with investigators about her disappearance.

The reason, police say: He lawyered up.

Christina Voltaire has been missing since Jan. 8. She was last seen at an apartment in southeast Winter Haven.

She is connected to a former boyfriend acquitted in a Lakeland shooting and to another man who describes himself as "a close friend."

Gilles told The Ledger Voltaire had her laptop on the bed, had been doing homework and had not feeling well. She is a student at Keiser University and took her education seriously, Gilles said.

Gilles said he left Voltaire for 45 minutes, during which time she disappeared. Police said they checked on Gilles' whereabouts during the 45 minutes and his alibi checked out.

When Gilles last saw her, Voltaire was wearing a black robe.

There is another missing girl from FL. Does anyone know how close they are?
 
it is about a 3 1/2 hour drive between Jacksonville and Winterhaven.
 
Be interesting to see if the brothers have a relationship with the mechanic.
 
Missing Winter Haven student "had a critical decision to make"

Winter Haven, Florida - For the first time, we're hearing from the father of a missing Winter Haven college student. Jean Voltaire says his daughter was worried sick about a critical decision she had to make right before she disappeared.

He says he can't believe his 22-year-old daughter, Christina Voltaire, is still missing.
.............
Jean Voltaire says she wasn't having any problems at school but he does say she had one critical decision to make in her personal life. "She had to choose between Dieuseul and this guy that borrowed her car."

WINTER HAVEN| An ex-boyfriend of a missing 22-year-old Winter Haven woman says he had nothing to do with her disappearance.
..................................
Dieuseul (pronounced Due-cell) Pierre-Gilles said he broke off a romantic involvement with Voltaire after discovering that he was not the father of her child, who died a year ago.

Winter Haven police investigators want to interview Pierre-Gilles, 30. But Police Chief Gary Hester has said they want to do so without his lawyer, Byron Hileman, being present.

Pierre-Gilles said Wednesday in an interview with The Ledger that he wants to talk with investigators and said he has what may be valuable information. But he said Hileman will be there if and when police interview him.

I would think LE has looked at security cameras located near her apartment. Or what do the other neighbors say about the evening she disappeared.....
 
Lots more info here about the situation: http://www.theledger.com/article/20...e=Man-Denies-Having-Part-In-Woman-s-Vanishing

Pierre-Gilles was born in Haiti, moved to the United States in 2000 and lives in Winter Haven. He speaks English but sometimes stumbles with words or doesn't understand them.

Hileman, Pierre-Gilles' lawyer, said one of the reasons he insisted on accompanying his client to The Ledger interview and to any future interview with police is the language difficulty.

Hileman said Pierre-Gilles is quite willing to talk with police, "and if he had anything to do with this (disappearance), I wouldn't let him within 500 miles of the police station."



Pierre-Gilles said he met Voltaire at a party in 2007 and they soon developed a romance. He said they lived together for less than a year in 2007 and 2008. They stopped sharing a home but remained a couple.

She had a baby, Audrey, about two years ago. The year-old girl died Jan. 26, 2010. Pierre-Gilles said he had no reason to think he was not the father nor to think Voltaire was seeing anyone else.

"I really believed I was the father," he said.

The Medical Examiner's Office ruled the cause of Audrey's death as "undetermined." Pierre-Gilles said Voltaire was distraught, so he filed the insurance papers for the baby's death expenses. He said he was told to provide a birth certificate and when he obtained it, he said it listed another man as the father of Voltaire's child.
Pierre-Gilles said he wasn't angry with Voltaire, but was very disappointed


Another sensitive situation for Pierre-Gilles is the relationship between his brother, Charles, and Voltaire. Charles Pierre-Gilles, 25, lives in an apartment near Voltaire's. He had a close relationship with her and spent time with her earlier during the evening she disappeared. Charles Pierre-Gilles reported her missing to police.
A pause followed a question to Dieseul Pierre-Gilles about whether Charles Pierre-Gilles had a romantic relationship with Voltaire.

"Yes," he said.
 
Another case where you can look in different directions and see different sinister possibilities. I don't like the fact that Charles denied they were involved romantically while both Dieuseul and Christina's dad seem to think otherwise. Would Dieuseul have said if it were Charles' name on the birth certificate?

On January 8th 2011, Christina Voltaire, a 22-year old Haiti American college student, disappeared from her Winter Haven, Florida apartment. A friend, who was borrowing her vehicle at the time, was the last person to have seen her. When he returned, Voltaire was gone. However, her robe, which she had been wearing, along with her purse and laptop were still in the apartment. Police have few leads in the investigation but consider Voltaire to be an endangered missing person.

LONGWOOD, Fla. -- The body of a woman was found along state Road 434 early Monday.

Deputies with the Seminole County Sheriff's Office said the body was spotted by a passer-by outside a car parked near the Miami Subs at S.R. 434 and Douglas Avenue.
The medical examiner removed the victim from the parking lot shortly after noon.
Investigators identified the victim as Sarah Yvonne Rucker, 42, but wouldn't release further details n while they work to solve the case.
When rescue crews arrived just after 5:30 a.m., they said Rucker was dead.
"The suspect in this case and our victim knew each other," Seminole County Sheriff's Office Lt. James Clark said.
How Rucker knew her attacker is something investigators wouldn't disclose. She was killed near one of the busiest intersections in the region.
