Michael Jackson, Vladimir Putin, and a silver investment.  As the search for 11-year-old Madalina Cojocari continued, her mother, Diana Cojocari, and stepfather, Christopher Palmiter faced charges for failing to report the little girl missing.  At trial, Palmiter took the stand in his own defense.  And his testimony revealed that things behind the closed doors of 18413 Victoria Bay Drive were far from normal.  Anyone with information on Madalina’s whereabouts is urged to call the Cornelius Police Department at 704-892-7773 or the FBI at 1-800-CALL FBI. Anyone who wishes to remain anonymous can call North Mecklenburg Crime Stoppers at 704-896-7867.  Sponsors:  OneSkin Age healthy with OneSkin.
