Sheriff's officials announced Wednesday they were scaling back the search for a Walker County 911 dispatcher now missing for more than a week.

Theresa Parker, 41, was last seen the night of Wednesday, March 21 as she left her sister's house. At 10:00 that night she called her sister from her cell phone.

After not hearing from Theresa for a few days, her family reported her missing Saturday.

Sheriff's deputies found her car parked at her home on Cordell Road, but they found no sign of Theresa. She was scheduled to report to work at the Walker County 911 Center at 7:00 p.m. Monday but didn't show up.

Since Saturday, law enforcement officers have conducted what they call a grid search, using ground teams, ATVs, dogs, and helicopters to comb through a five mile area around Theresa's home.

Although they insist they are still treating Theresa's disappearance as a missing person case, law enforcement officials acknowledge they have begun searching for likely places in the area where someone might dump a body.

Theresa, who has been a county 911 dispatcher since 1992, is married to LaFayette police Sergeant Sam Parker, a 20-year veteran of the department.

The couple recently separated and is in the process of getting a divorce. They have been married for 14 years.

At the time she disappeared, Theresa was moving from the couple's home to a house in the nearby town of Fort Oglethorpe.

Since the couple's separation, Sam Parker has been living at the home of his deceased parents, about 15 miles south of LaFayette, Sheriff Steve Wilson said. Parker was planning to move back into the Cordell Road home after Theresa moved out.

County records show that sheriff's deputies have responded to the Parkers' home at least four times during the last few years in response to 911 calls concerning domestic disputes. No arrests were made.

Sheriff Wilson said it's natural in a case like this that some suspicion would fall on the husband.

"It doesn't look good," Wilson said, but he added that he has no reason to suspect Sam Parker knows any more about his wife's disappearance than he has already told investigators.

"He's been very cooperative," Wilson said.

Parker has given consent for investigators to search his home on Cordell Road, his vehicles, and his parents' house. Parker has also given statements to agents from the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.

Wilson said he asked the GBI to take the lead early in the investigation because of the close relationship both Parkers have with the LaFayette Police Department and with the Sheriff's Office.

Parker reportedly told GBI agents that he last saw his wife on Tuesday, March 20, the day before she was last at her sister's house. He went fishing two days later, he said, and was not aware his wife was missing until her family reported it to the Sheriff's Office.

According to Theresa's family and friends, she is not the type of person who would leave without telling anyone. She maintained close, almost daily, contact with her mother and sister.

After days of fruitless searching, Sheriff Wilson was asked when he thought the investigation might move from a missing person case to a homicide case.

"I don't know that there is actually a timeline in the textbook," Wilson told the Walker County Messenger. "You have to take all the factors into consideration as to when to change it from a missing person to a possibly more serious case, maybe a criminal case of some sort."

Although the search for Theresa has been cut back, investigators are still hard at work, Wilson said.

"We're running down many different leads," the sheriff told Crime Library.

Thursday, investigators announced they had used a GPS satellite to locate Theresa's cell phone and have found out the last number she dialed, but they would not provide any more details.

"I'm very disturbed," Sheriff Wilson said. "I have a bad feeling."
