When police checked her home, they found her car in the garage, the back door unlocked, but the house tidy and her phone inside. However, her purse, some journals, a photo of her and her boyfriend, and a towel were missing. Importantly, blood was found in her garage and car, suggesting a struggle or violence.

Someone used Prince’s debit card to withdraw $800 from her accounts after she disappeared. ATM cameras got a blurry picture of a masked man doing this. A witness later described this man as being in his mid-30s to early 40s, around 5’11”, and about 215-245 pounds. Police want to talk to him.

Prince’s long-term boyfriend, Earl Pippin, was the sole beneficiary of her will and they owned a house together. He was initially uncooperative with the investigation and refused a lie detector test (though he claims to have passed one given by the FBI). He’s been named a person of interest, but never charged. Police even searched the backyard of a house Pippin built, looking for Prince’s body.

Prince was a successful woman – she co-founded her company, had degrees from FSU and Duke, and owned several rental properties. Her family says it’s completely out of character for her to disappear. Her mother sadly passed away while still searching for her daughter.

Because of the blood found at her home and the suspicious activity surrounding her disappearance, foul play is suspected.
