Police: Orlando Mom Disappeared After Stint On Reality Show

ORLANDO (CBSMiami) - Police in Orlando are searching for a mother of three who vanished after appearing on the popular reality show "The People's Court".

Authorities say Michelle Parker was last seen on Thursday afternoon, after she appeared on the show with ex-boyfriend Dale Smith, who is the father of her 3 year old twins.

On Friday, Parker's Hummer was found by police, with the mother no where in sight.

"There is no blood in the car, that's why they think she is still alive, which I hope" said father Brad Parker.

Police say Parker and Smith had a violent relationship. Smith has denied any involvement in her disappearance and has not been named a suspect.

Along with the twins, Parker also has an 11 year old son.

Volunteers are scouring the area for any signs of Parker. Police say immediate family members have given DNA samples to clear them of any suspicion.
