Missing Mo. mother of triplets Jacque Sue Waller missing; search finds no trace
July 18, 2011 4:55 PM



(CBS/KFVS/AP) CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. - More than 100 volunteers spent the weekend searching for clues to help find a missing southeast Missouri mother of triplets, Jacque Sue Waller.

The volunteers combed through more than 90 acres in rural Cape Girardeau County on Saturday and Sunday.

Jacque, 39, was last seen June 1 near the home of her estranged husband, Clay Waller, investigators say. He is a person of interest in her disappearance, according to Lt. David James with the Cape Girardeau Co. Sheriff's Office, reports CBS affiliate KFVS.

James says Clay Waller is not considered a suspect, because there is no evidence that a crime has been committed. However, authorities do suspect foul play in her disappearance.

Waller said he and his wife argued before she disappeared. His attorney says Waller denies having anything to do with her disappearance.

Jacque Waller's car was found abandoned along a state highway in what police suspect could be a scene staged to look like an abduction. Waller's purse, keys and cell phone were not found inside the vehicle.

Family members last saw her in Ste. Genevieve, where Waller was staying with her sister. She went to Cape Girardeau and Jackson on June 1 to complete divorce proceedings and pick up her son from Clay Waller's former home.

Missing triplet mom's husband 'not co-operating' with police investigation
By Daily Mail Reporter
Last updated at 10:14 PM on 19th July 2011

The husband of a missing mother of triplets who vanished six weeks ago is 'not real forthcoming' in providing information to detectives, it emerged today.
Clay Waller was said to be 'un-cooperative' with detectives as they searched for his estranged wife Jacque Waller, 39.

Last week family members accused Mr Waller of physically abusing his wife as it emerged Mrs Waller was finalising her divorce on the day she disappeared.
Mrs Waller's husband, Clay Waller, has been labelled by police as person of interest, but not a suspect in his wife's disappearance.

Speaking to Fox News, Jackson Police Chief James Humphreys said: 'He's not cooperating the way we hope he would.'

Detectives are expected to carry out more searches around the area where Mrs Waller's car was found abandoned on June 2.

Police said they suspected the disappearance may have been staged to look like an abduction.

The couple separated in March and had met earlier in the day to finalise paperwork for their divorce.
Mrs Waller was last seen when she went to her estranged husband's home to pick up her son.
Mr Waller was the last person to see his wife alive on June 1.

Previously the family of Jacque Waller claimed the Missouri mother of five-year-old triplets was the victim of domestic abuse and that her estranged husband, a former police officer, knows where she is.

Estranged husband of missing mother of triplets arrested for 'threatening to kill a friend and theft'
By Rachel Quigley
Last updated at 5:33 PM on 2nd August 2011



The estranged husband of Jacque Sue Waller, the mother of young triplets who has been missing for two months, has been arrested on charges unrelated to his wife's disappearance.

James 'Clay' Waller, 40, from Missouri, was arrested on Friday for theft and harassment.

Police said these incidents are completely unrelated to his wife's disappearance but he still remains the only person of interest in the case and was the last one to see her alive.

According to the Huffington Post, Waller - a former police man and construction business owner - allegedly accepted a cheque for $55,000 from a company in April last year that he never did work for.

The harassment charge is said to be related to a complaint from his former friend Gary Hill who told police that Waller threatened to kill him.

Jacque Waller vanished without a trace on June 1 after she went to Waller's son to pick up her son.

The child was not at the home when she arrived, and what happened to her after that remains a mystery.

Her car was then found abandoned three miles from his home and her business cards found eight miles away from there a month later.

Are those the triplets? If the son was not at the dad's house when she went to pick him up, where is he now? Was he one of the triplets or is this another son? Where are the children now?

Yes, mama, they are triplets - they are 5 years old and being cared for by Jacque's sister & brother-in-law, (sister's name is Cheryl Brenneke) according to this article:

The fact that Clay Waller works in construction has not been lost on law enforcement officers, who said Monday that his job sites have been a part of the investigation since his wife's disappearance more than two months ago.
While they wouldn't say where, the lead investigators said that they've considered that Jacque Sue Waller's remains may have been disposed of in cement.

"We've considered a lot of different possibilities, and that's just one of them," said Jackson police chief James Humphreys. "We don't have anything substantial to say for sure, but yeah, we've considered that."

JACKSON, MO (KFVS) -
Ten weeks after Heartland mom Jacque Waller disappeared, Jackson authorities wait to find out more about a woman's body found north of St. Louis.

Police Chief James Humphreys says they are waiting to see if authorities can identify the woman.

The Missouri Water Patrol found her body Sunday in the Mississippi River, near the Lock and Dam at Winfield.

Humphreys says they feel they should check out every possible lead and this discovery happened close enough to the Heartland to warrant their attention.

In the meantime, Humphreys says new searches in Cape Girardeau County are scheduled for next week.

Some claim they've seen Jacque Waller alive; police dismiss notion

Submitted photo Jacque Sue Waller, right, has been missing since June 1.


The first time Joe Landam ever laid eyes on Jacque Waller was in photographs that were televised on Nancy Grace's CNN talk show.
The second time he saw her, he says, was a few days later -- alive in the lobby of a Phoenix apartment complex.

"She looked just like the person I saw in the picture," said Landam, who is a lifelong Phoenix resident. "I swear it looked like the girl on the news. I was like, 'Wow, maybe this is her.'"

Her posture also struck him as unusual -- anxious, adrift and unfamiliar with her surroundings.

"There seemed to be something terribly empty about this person," Landam said. "She seemed nervous. Sort of lost."

Landam reported what he saw to the Jackson Police Department but never heard back. He acknowledged there's no way to be certain it was the 39-year-old mother of three who has been missing since June 1.

Is Landam an idiot? If he saw her picture on NG's show, then he thought he saw her in person, why didn't he go up to her and ask her what her name was, or if she is Jacque Waller?

Why didn't he have someone call LE while he was talking with her?

Along with everyone else, Waller triplets awaiting answers

STE. GENEVIEVE, Mo. -- It's a sunny, late-summer morning and the 5-year-old Waller triplets are goofing off.

Addison, the high-spirited redhead, is riding her bike outside. Avery, the blond who likes to dance and wear sunglasses, is offering a quick tour of the room she shares with her sister, annoying her aunt with the music cranked up.

Maddox, the only boy, is just coming off a fever but still has the energy for a Popsicle and playing with Tank, the snorting English bulldog that all the children have grown to adore.

At first glance, their world seems typical.
