Talk Of The Town Is Theresa Parker
April 7, 2007
Still no word Saturday from the Walker County 911 dispatcher missing now for more than two weeks.
But around the town of Lafayette, plenty of people are talking about Theresa Parker.
Nearly everywhere you go, you hear about Theresa. You see signs praying for her safe return. You see ribbons on homes and businesses.
"We all just hope she is found soon," said Patty Davis, who works for the Dari-Dip in Lafayette.
The reason for the ribbon on the Dari-Dip is the talk of the town.
"A lot of people come in and they discuss it," Davis said. "There's quite a gathering of people concerned for her."
In such a small town like Lafeyette, Theresa Parker has become a household name.
"There's a desperate sense now of needing to know what happened to her," Davis said.
At Main Street Deli in the center of town, employee Shannon Smith said, "I don't think (the talk) will stop until they know what happened to her."
Smith, too, hears a lot from customers about the mystery surrounding Theresa -- and the massive search to find her.
"It makes me hopeful that if anything happens to you, everyone would be willing to help," Smith said.
Added Davis, "It is really sad because it could have happened to any one of us, any one of us could be missing.
At the Dari-Dip like so many other businesses, employees and patrons pray for a safe return. But hope is fading.
"People were optimistic to begin with," Davis said, "but people are little more concerned now that there's been no word from her."
And that has led to speculation across town -- rumors about who, if anyone, is responsible for the disappearance of Theresa Parker.
"Everyone wants to know where she is," Davis said, "and what happened to such a gracious lady."
Search crews are taking the weekend off. But the sheriff of Walker County says crews are ready at a moment's notice if any new leads come up in the case.
NewsChannel 9 also has learned new information about the LaFayette police officer who was arrested on charges of lying to a GBI agent about the disappearance of Theresa.
Harbin Chaffin posted bond Friday night in the amount of $5,000 and was released from custody.
Chaffin will appear in Walker County Superior Court. A date has not been set.
