Homicide investagators with the San Diego County Sheriff's Department are searching for clues about the missing : Joseph Mcstay,40, his wife, Summer , 43, and their 2 children Gianni and Joseph. The sheriff's department said in a statement that the McStays have not been seen or heard from family members or business contacts in their Fallbrook community sice Feb.4. Four days later, their car was towed as an abandoned vehicle from a parking lot in San Ysidro, two blocks from the maxican border, according to published reports,
Michael McStay told the Times that three days earlier, one of his brother's co-workers said it had been days since he heard from Joseph, who owns a fountain and garden business called Earth Inspired Products.When Michael McStay found his brother's home empty on Feb.13 and again on the 15th, he contacted authorities.
Evidence at the family home suggested that the family had not left on a planned vacation and that the totality of the circumstances surrounding their disappearance was guite out of character for this family, sheriff Lt. Dennis told Ktla-TV. perhaps most notably, the family's two dogs, Bear and Baby Bear, a puppy, were left uncared for in the backyard. The dogs were left outside without food or water, they would never have left the dogs outside without telling their friends, Diane Cirignani, a family friend said.
the Family's sudden disappearance has prompted much speculation, including Joseph may have had business ties in Mexico, or the couple , who marriage in 2007 was experiencing marital problems problems. Cirgnani denies those charges, saying she does not believe the McStays skipped town voluntarily. We just want everyone to know how good a family this is, she told AOLNews, there was no domestic issues or anything else.A search of the McStays home and cars on Friday revealed no evidence of struggle or foul play, no ransom or other notes were discovered, according to the North County Times, which said the sheriff's department planned to search the couple's bank and cell phone records, as well as work with federal offcials to review video surveillance of border crossings, authorities also planned to check Mexican hospitals, jails amd morgues.
The mStays were not a family who planned to abandon their Southern California roots, according to Cirgnani's interview with the Orange County Register. She said the McStays , who grew up in Orange County and had worked in San Clemente for several years, had plans. Summer, a licensed real estate agent , was preparing to get back into the business. Joseph was excited about a large order of commerocal fountains. They also had a housewarming party in the works. I don't understand what happened, a McStay family friend told KTLA at a local prayer vigil, I just want them to be back home.
