Angie Tucker Still Missing From Tulsa, OK

Angie Denise Tucker, mother of 2 children, was in an on again, off again relationship with Allen Shields, who was quickly named a suspect or person of interest in her disappearance.

On October 6, 2007, Tucker filed rape charges against Shields, and he was arrested on those charges, but posted bond the same day, and the charges were declined due to lack of evidence, according to the prosecuting attorney.  On October 8 Tucker was granted an order of protection against Shields, but by November 3, Angie Tucker vanished.

According to her testimony, Shields broke into her home and forced her to have sex.  She claimed he had tried to harm her, harassed and stalked her.  Early on in the investigation it was stated that there was evidence with which to produce a time line, also confirming to investigators that she was a victim of foul play.  Shields continued to deny any knowledge of where she was or what happened to her.

When Angie Tucker failed to show up for her job at OSU Medical center, her employers and family filed a missing persons report with police.  Immediately they started passing out flyers with her information, the only thing they knew to do.  Many sources have said that it was totally out of her character to not have contact with her two children, that she would definitely not leave them behind.  Angie was know to be a responsible and dependable person who would always let family members know where she was going, she was outgoing and easily made friends.  She did not own a vehicle at the time she went missing.

In 2010, Allen Shields was again arrested, this time for several charges stemming from another late night break-in to the home of an ex-girlfriend.  Just like Angie Tucker, the woman filed for an order of protection because of an incident where he choked her to the point of passing out, just a short time before Shields broke into her home with what authorities say was a "murder kit" consisting of a handgun, pepper spray, a particulate mask, pepper spray-decontamination wipes, handcuffs and medications that could be used to promote sleep, an arrest report shows.  He clearly had plans to do harm to her and her 9 year old daughter, who possibly saved them both by locking herself in the bathroom and dialing 911 for help.  Responding officers broke down the door and found Shields in the home.

And then.......

On the morning of Sept. 4, 2008, a gunman wearing sunglasses and a hooded shirt pulled up over his head entered Retail Fuels Marketing, 3158 S. 108th East Ave., and quickly walked past several employees to the office of the company's owner, Neal Sweeney.

Without saying anything, the gunman shot Sweeney in the head.
Sweeney, a beloved father and former University of Tulsa football player, died the next day.

Police say the resulting investigation unraveled a murder-for-hire plot that led to charges against five accused conspirators. One defendant has since committed suicide, and four men face trial in the Sweeney slaying.

The defendant that committed suicide on April 5, 2011,  was Allen Shields "who pleaded guilty to the murder conspiracy and struck a deal with prosecutors to testify against the alleged co-conspirators. Prosecutors alleged that Shields helped facilitate payment for the killing. Shields, 34, was found dead Tuesday morning,  after reportedly shooting himself during a police standoff that involved an 11-year-old girl as a hostage."

Angie Denise Tucker is still missing, her two children are now 17 and 15 and being cared for by her family.

Kathleen Savio, Justice Vanishing

As her white casket was pulled from the ground on November 17, 2007, questions arose concerning her "accidental" death, drowning in her own bathtub. Her peaceful rest was disturbed by questioning, probing and sampling. It would mark the beginning of a spotlight that has not shone on Kathleen Savio and the circumstances of her death, nor the two boys she left behind, but on her ex-husband, Drew Peterson, and the three ring circus he has created, basking in every minute of the limelight and insisting on his innocence.

Kathleen's last day on earth was March 1, 2004, not a date that too many are remembering these days, as her death has been overshadowed by news of Drew's fourth wife, Stacy Peterson, and possible fifth, fiancee Chrissy Raines, but the Savio family continues to mourn and seek justice on her behalf. Little did they know, but suspected, that their beloved "Kitty" did not die accidentally, and, as a new investigation has reported, she was a victim of homicide.

Kathleen lived with and reported many beatings, threats and petitioned for Orders of Protection. Police were called to her home several times, many reports were take, but many were not. She went so far as to write to the Illinois States Attorney describing what would happen to her according to the threats she was receiving. She laid it all out describing in detail what was happening in her life and the lives of her children, and what was going to happen to her next. Kitty eerily knew she was going to die, and die at the hands of her ex-husband, according to her letters and petitions. Please take the time to read for yourself the words she wrote predicting her fate.

But where is the proof? Was Drew Peterson responsible for her death? A Grand Jury in Will County, Illinois has been probing into this for over a year and still no arrest has been made. Was Drew Peterson, as a veteran Bolingbrook police officer, able to conceal every piece of evidence of a crime scene? It's a very real possibility that he will never be charged, never found guilty, never be sentenced, and although the mother of two of his children has been gone for five years, circumstantial evidence and the layout of Kathleen's letters must not be good enough to arrest or convict.

It's hard to find accounts of Kathleen before her connection with Drew, but I am assuming she, as other of his wives, thought she had found what she was looking for. A nice home, two children, nursing school, a police officer husband, all look like a positive lifestyle from an outsider's viewpoint. However, Kathleen, as so many others, was living a nightmare behind closed doors, the dirty little secret of domestic abuse hiding behind the policeman coward's badge.

As many before, and many will again, Kathleen lost her life.

She had no safety strategy plan set in place to get out of this marriage with her life. Police officers are trained in crime scene evidence, in how to use weapons, and, in a lot of cases, how to cover up a crime committed by one of their own. It seems that the circumstances Kathleen predicted five long years ago have come true. In her words she stated that he threatened to kill her and no one would suspect. So far, Drew Peterson was telling the truth.

May the Savio family and the children of Kathleen and Stacy know that there are many, many out here that have not forgotten, that wish to see justice served, that continue to keep the memory of Kathleen as a woman and a mother alive and not just yesterday's news article about the "puppetmaster", Drew Peterson. May Kathleen rest assured that many are concerned for her children and only want what's in their best interest.

Peace to you, Kathleen.
