Did you kill her? He obviously tells us no. He says she could come back any day. When we asked if she left, was on her own, he responded, she is either not coming back because something happened or occurred against her will. We're like, holy cow.
My name is Chad Wilhite. I'm with the Pensacola Police Department. And I was assigned to the Criminal Investigations Division as a detective.
It was a missing person case at that time. And the missing person was a lady by the name of Cassandra Robinson. She had been reported missing by her sister, Carlisa. Carlisa had told the reporting officer that she had not seen her sister for approximately four months. And the last time she had seen or heard from her would have been on February the 1st of 2018.
Cassandra Robinson was a typical girl her age. She was active on social media. She had worked as a dancer in one of our local clubs. So she was just a normal, stay-at-home person, raising her child, involved with her baby's dad.
The area they were living in, heck, it was, I want to say, like two blocks from the fire department. So it was a nice little area, nice house.
Detective Galloway spoke to Henry on the phone. I believe it was June 11th. Henry told Detective Galloway that on February the 1st, which would have been the one year year birthday of their daughter, Evelyn. After the birthday party, Cassandra left in their BMW and she left with some bags. Henry said, I went to bed. She didn't come back.
And when he woke up, somehow the vehicle and the keys were back at the house and Cassandra was gone. And he hadn't seen from her, seen or heard from her since February the 1st.
Henry told Detective Galloway that she had made statements in the past that when Evelyn turned one years old, she would be leaving.
Is she just tired and want to go away? Or she was just fed up with life and needed a break? She suffered from some mental health issues in the past. Maybe she went and got herself checked in and didn't tell no one.
According to her, it was a somewhat volatile relationship at one point. According to Carlisa, Henry had beaten Cassandra up pretty good in the past, but she would never report it to law enforcement. or to anyone that could help her get out of the situation she was in.
Detective Galloway had interviewed one of Cassandra's friends. Henry had been messing around in their relationship, so she was going to pack her and Evelyn's stuff and they were going to go live in her grandma's house.
Today's world, just like it was five, seven years ago, everybody's glued to their phone and they're glued to social media.
She was able to provide us with, obviously, a phone number. She was able to provide us with the social media, her favorite social media site, which would have been Facebook and Instagram. So we were able to get usernames and handle her names off of those in order to help further along the investigation.
I-110 is a super long road. It runs from literally the East Coast to the West Coast of the whole United States. But it pinged up there. That was the last place it had pinged.
They searched the inside of the house, outside of the house. They used ground penetrating radar to make sure that to see if there was anything buried in the backyard that maybe would help solve this mystery. All that was done with negative results.
There was no signs of a struggle or blood or anything found inside the residence that would lead us to believe that she was harmed inside the residence. At least physically attacked maybe inside the residence where she would receive some type of injury.
There's something going on in her past that we don't know about. Was there people that we don't know about that maybe... harmed her? Did Henry harm her? We don't know. There's a lot of things that were going on or potentially going on that we had to look into.
We want to start back with an initial interview of the person who has the closest ties to Cassandra, which would be Henry Steiger.
The house is on a golf course out by the beach. It is very nice out there. In fact, you got to go through a gate guard to get out there. It's called a gated community.
He doesn't know we're coming. We wanted to have the element of surprise on our side, obviously. Being in law enforcement for 20-something years now, at the time it was only like 15. But any time you have the element of surprise, it's going to be on our side. We don't have time to plan for what he's going to tell us. We don't have time to leave.
