Bumping for Prisma

Where can we find you, lady? Hoping you are ok

I just read the threads for Prisma Denisse. I am kind of blown away by how the movement on her case just stopped. Why isn’t the ex who lived in the elevator-building a clear suspect? It seems to me that the most logical course of action would be that after the lunch fight, the ex went back to work, she blew up his phone and he ignored her until the last call on her phone. The time coincides with getting home from the office so to me it looks like she finally got in touch with him on his way home. Maybe he picked her up in the garage. There is some confusion but that’s the simplest explanation I see.

I am not saying that’s definitely what happened (it’s just my theory) - but I do not understand why his car wouldn’t be searched, etc ...

Can anyone help me out with what I’m missing here? Point out why I’m wrong about the lunch ex ? Is there something, some iron clad alibi or something like that, that would move LE to give him a pass? Maybe the time he left work that day was later, for ex?

I am sad for you, Winter, and for your family and friends. I wish I could help. I see a beautiful woman who is juggling a lot of responsibilities.

But I will eat my phone if she disappeared voluntarily to go live the childless life, I don’t see that at all. Not based on what’s here anyway.

This is, in my opinion, one of the spookier and more mysterious disappearances currently being discussed here on WS. I do know the DFW area very, very well, so the facts as they’ve been laid out by the police and MSM make it even more bizarre to me. The facts, as I understand them (please correct me if I am mis-remembering what has been stated) are:

  1. Prisma has a young son, by a former husband/ex. The son lives with her, and until her disappearance, the husband/ex wasn’t in the picture.
  2. Prisma had a regular female babysitter who would watch her son after he got home from school until she got home from work every day.
  3. Work was a host of different jobs over the years until recently, when she had landed a job at a car dealership not far from where she lived.
  4. Prisma had an abusive, or at least questionable, ex boyfriend (not the son’s father) whom she had recently reconciled with on some level, against some of her family’s advice. We’ll call him the “new boyfriend”.
  5. On the day of her disappearance, Prisma showed up to work in the morning and then left for lunch.
  6. Instead of going to eat nearby her work, she drove to Uptown Dallas (at the very least a 35-minute drive with no traffic) to meet her “new boyfriend” for lunch at a Mexican restaurant.
  7. Prisma is observed talking to someone on her cell phone outside of the restaurant and then getting in a heated argument with her new boyfriend upon arriving back at their table.
  8. The police are called, but Prisma and new boyfriend are long-gone by the time they arrive.
  9. The next few hours, Prisma’s movements are largely unaccounted for, and she never returns to work.
  10. Sometime in the 5-6 PM time frame, Prisma makes multiple cell phone calls to various friends, the new boyfriend, and her babysitter.
  11. The call with the babysitter reportedly lasts over an hour, but the babysitter now won’t say what they talked about, other than that Prisma would be late returning home to her son.
  12. Prisma is seen on parking garage camera footage from either her new boyfriend’s building or a building near it (confused as to which) at close to 6 pm. She is seen on her phone and looking very intoxicated or unstable in her movements.
  13. Prisma ends the call and is seen walking off camera toward the interior of the garage.
  14. Prisma is never seen or heard from again.
  15. The “new boyfriend” is absent from his job after her disappearance for an indeterminate time.

Multiple theories have been put forward here and elsewhere, most of them very logical, but also most of them not accounting for some details of that day. What if the following happened?:

Prisma left for work that morning, fully intending on it being a regular day. She either had a pre-planned lunch date with her boyfriend or he called her that morning and arranged one, saying he needed to see her. Few things would likely motivate a responsible person to drive so far away from work for lunch, but something involving either love or money probably would.

Prisma gets to lunch and her volatile boyfriend is already in a bad mood. Prisma gets a call from either her ex (son’s father) or another male acquaintance. This sets off the jealous side of her boyfriend, and they immediately argue about the call once she gets back. At this point, Prisma has had enough and starts to think her family was right and she made a mistake getting back together with him. They go their own ways after lunch, but Prisma is too upset to return to work. Perhaps she goes for a drive. Perhaps she gets more to drink (would explain her movements in the video). Then she makes the call to the babysitter to say she’ll be late. That call ends up lasting over an hour because the conversation turns to Prisma’s relationship and what she should do. The babysitter advises her to dump him immediately. So Prisma, now in a somewhat inebriated and agitated state, drives to his apartment building, doesn’t even bother to park her vehicle legally, and is seen on the video trying to call him (as well as others). She finally gets a hold of him and he comes down to let her in. That is when Prisma is seen walking deeper into the garage.

Prisma went there to dump him for good, and something bad happened in that building (not saying who did what or even who all was involved). Now the babysitter wants NOTHING to do with the whole scenario and won’t talk to anyone because she knows she advised Prisma to dump him, and she’s afraid of him coming after her as well, not to mention that others might blame her for sending Prisma to her death, so to speak.

It all fits, at least in my opinion and as far as I know the facts. I’m not going to guess who did what to her, or whether a murder or accident occurred, but it seems that something very bad did befall her at that apartment or somewhere nearby, since she never made an attempt to retrieve her vehicle, and she would never leave her precious son.

Thoughts?

This was excellent @mysteryfan96
I’m wondering, have you had any thoughts about the idea that she had been drugged and thus why she looked so intoxicated? Also, wasn’t there a call to a different friend talking about how “off” she felt and she was essentially confused and asking for help? Somewhere in there I do think it’s quite possible... What are your thoughts?

That's an interesting theory. Just a few remarks, based on the previous information in this thread and my own opinion.

I'm not sure how likely it was that she called her child's father during lunch, since they were reportedly estranged. He did start paying child support recently - before her disappearance.

The call with the babysitter occurred between 3 and 4pm. I agree that the likely topic of the discussion was Prisma's relationship. It is not known to the public where she was during that time or for nearly two hours after. Perhaps knowing that could change our perspective.

The pickup time discussed with the babysitter was not later than usual, since Prisma had an afternoon shift and was supposed to work until 7pm. To me the first unusual thing was going so far away for lunch.

In the ten minutes after she was last seen she made 8 more calls, 5 or so to her "new boyfriend" and one (the longest) to her friend who was out of town that lasted 3 minutes. Apparently she asked for help and did not know where she was. It seems that her condition worsened after the surveillance video. It's not known if she was still in the garage at that point.

Excellent points! I KNEW there was something I was forgetting... the call to the friend where she said she didn’t feel right or know where she was. That could put a dent in my theory, but maybe not. I think based on her apparent lack of coordination in the video and her friend saying Prisma was confused and needed help, it points directly to a drugging of some kind. Maybe the “new boyfriend” dropped something in her drink at lunch (although why he would do that, I have no idea). Maybe the bartender did? Maybe someone at another location did? It would make zero sense for her to drug herself on a lunch break with her kid waiting for her at home, so I see no other way it could have happened to her unless someone she was around between 12:30 and 5:30 managed to slip something in her drink or food. Maybe we’re looking at a drugging and then a horrible accident later on due to the inebriation, which has been covered up by parties involved in her drugging? Whatever the case, accident or murder, I do believe it all came to an end for her in or around that apartment building. I know there was some hope from the family she would resurface after the custody hearing was over, but that’s come and gone, and I just don’t see any way a loving mother would stay gone this long from her son. I hope the odds are defied here and I’m proven very wrong, but it just doesn’t look good.

Oh, and I forgot to add that I also agree with you that it is much more likely that she was talking to some other male acquaintance (or maybe even a gal pal) than her estranged ex. I only mentioned him as a possibility because Prisma talking to him would definitely anger the new boyfriend.

But I will eat my phone if she disappeared voluntarily to go live the childless life, I don’t see that at all. Not based on what’s here anyway.
I completely agree with you. I can’t understand why the seemingly OBVIOUS suspect here hasn’t been investigated more thoroughly or even publicly named as a POI. There’s got to be something we’re all not aware of here. Either they’ve already completely vetted him, received his alibi, and searched all of his property to clear him (and not told the public so), or they also suspect or know its him and a lot of activity and waiting games are going on in the background that we don’t know about. I just don’t see how in her condition without a vehicle (since it was never moved until it was towed) she could have gotten very far from that apartment building, at least not without being noticed by multiple people. That area of Uptown Dallas has a lot of foot traffic as well as auto traffic, so a stumbling girl would have caught the eye of many people and someone would have come forward with the sighting.

The part of her being drugged at lunch doesn't make too much sense to me. How would the person who drugged her know where she would go next? Wouldn't they plan to take control of her? She could have gone back to work and have an episode there. Quite a few hours had passed since lunch. IMO she took or was given something in the time after lunch.

My bet would be on the waiting game. The police probably don't have enough evidence to make someone an official suspect. Not sure what new info could change that.

True. That part never made sense to me, either, with regards to why her new boyfriend or a restaurant employee would drug her at lunch? To what end? What could anyone gain by drugging a woman on her lunch break? How would they know where she was going next? Prisma HAD to have gone somewhere else, most likely a public place like another restaurant or bar, in those afternoon hours where the drugging occurred.

And if there was no drugging, what could have made a previously sober woman suddenly so disoriented and unstable on her feet? Bad reaction to some other medicine? Some sort of brain trauma or neurological episode? The drugging or brief loss of her faculties, to me, is the hardest bit to explain.

Scenario: man wants custody of his child and to not pay child support, so he drugs the the mother of his children with a slow acting substance so he can easily overpower her later when they meet up. However, the timing doesn't go quite as planned and she is able to call for help?

Absolutely agree. IMHO it's more likely that she voluntary took the drugs herself. Some do not believe this bc she was in the military. Opioids can be an issue...even for some that are overall responsible, have children and are in the military. LE may have found evidence of this and that's why we haven't heard many pleas to help find her. All IMHO.

I can't argue that we don't know whether Prisma used drugs voluntarily, either that day or ever. We can say we think it is unlikely, or even likely, whatever one's opinion. But we cant' ay for certain either way. We can state an opinion only, since there is no evidence released to support that opinion either way.

So, even if (HUGE "if") LE has evidence of opioid (or any drug) use, you think this is why "we haven't heard many pleas to help find her"? Because LE think she isn't worth finding if she used opioids? No. Just no.

The father of her child lives in another town. The man that she likely went to meet with in the building where she was last seen is another ex, who was also her current boyfriend. We learned here that he had a violent past.

I meant that they possibly believe that she is off voluntary doing drugs. Everyone deserves to be found regardless of certain life choices that most of us see as destructive. IMO if LE thought she was abducted or murdered there would likely be more requests for info, etc.
 
  • #300
Just checking in, have not checked in awhile. This is one of the quietest or seemingly most inactive cases I have seen. Not once have I seen a search for this victim and not since the early days has LE asked for sightings or information.

It is frustrating.

I continue to hope though that she will be found.

Jmo.
