Michael and his older sister, Monica , were last seen at the Heritage Apartments, now known as Merritt Landing Apartments, on 5700 Altama Avenue.
They reportedly went to help their stepfather, who was separated from their mother, move into another apartment on the day of their disappearance. The stepfather told police he dropped the two off at the apartment complex, but their mother, Deborah George, said she never saw them.
Their older sister, Sheila Wigfall, who was living with her biological father at the time of her siblings' disappearance, said that she remembered Monica told her that she didn't want to go home that evening. That was three hours before Monica and her brother were reported missing.
