Motley Crue Matches Reward For Missing Woman
« on: April 25, 2005, 04:43:00 pm »
Motley Crue is joining efforts to find a Baltimore area woman missing since March 6, when she failed to meet friends for the band's concert in Washington.
 
 Tracey Gardner-Tetso, 32, of Rosedale, Md., was reported missing by her husband after she did not meet friends at Motley Crue's Red, White & Crue Tour 2005 tour stop at the MCI Center.
 
 The band will match an earlier reward of up to $10,000 to increase publicity about the woman's disappearance, according to its management company. "We hope our involvement helps bring more attention to this case, and anyone with information will step forward," bassist Nikki Sixx said in a statement.
 
 Gardner-Tetso is white, 5 feet 4 inches tall, weighs 130 pounds and has with long blonde hair and blue eyes. When she was last seen, she was driving a 1996 black Pontiac Trans Am with tinted windows and Maryland license plates with the number LRN 534.
 
 The earlier reward was offered by the Victims' Rights Foundation of Gaithersburg, Metro Crime Stoppers and Aggregate Industries, where Gardner-Tetso worked as a dispatcher.

Read Nikki's poast here.
 
 Have you seen  this woman?
 
 The husband of a Rosedale woman missing since last week said he realizes it's only natural for people to suspect he had something to do with his wife's disappearance, especially since he knew she was having an affair.
 
 But he does not know what may have happened to her, he said.
 
 "I wish I knew where she was," Dennis Tetso said. "I just want her to come home. I miss her."
 
 Police are asking for the public's help in locating Tracey Leigh Tetso, 32, of the 7800 block of Bluegrass Road.
 
 The woman has not contacted family or friends since March 6.
 
 "They are just doing their jobs," Tetso said of detectives who have questioned him in connection with Tracey's disappearance. "I expect that. I have nothing to hide." County police said there are no suspects in the case.
 
 Both Tracey's husband and her boyfriend, Christian Sinnott, reported her missing to authorities March 7.
 
 Police said detectives have learned that her car, a 1996 black Pontiac Trans Am with dark-tinted windows, passed through the southbound side of the Harbor Tunnel shortly before 8 p.m. March 6. The vehicle, with Maryland tags LRN 534, is also missing.
 
 Police spokesman Bill Toohey said no suspects have been named, and detectives are talking to "everyone she knows."
 
 Tracey Tetso is described as 5 feet 4, 130 pounds, with long blonde hair and blue eyes. She has tattoos of a bird on her back and on her right leg.
 
 She was supposed to attend a Motley Crue concert March 6 at the MCI Center in Washington, D.C., police said.
 
 It was a concert Dennis Tetso knew nothing about.
 
 The tickets were a Christmas gift from Sinnott, 31, who had been dating the woman for about four months, Sinnott said.
 
 He is a truck driver for Aggregate Industries in Crofton, where Tracey was a dispatcher.
 
 She had recently transferred to the company's Laurel location, friends said.
 
 Sinnott said Tracey never called him to confirm their meeting plans and never showed up at the concert.
 
 "She was looking forward to it. The day of the concert, I knew something was wrong," he said.
 
 In separate interviews, both men acknowledged knowing about the other and said they were concerned only for Tracey's safety.
 
 "We are all worried about her. We can't find her or the car," said Tetso, 40. "It's not like her to not contact anyone."
 
 Tetso said he received a phone call March 7 from Aggregate saying Tracey never reported to work.
 
 Tetso, who also used to work at Aggregate before getting a job driving trucks for another concrete company, said he last saw his wife March 6.
 
 "I didn't even know she left," he said. "When I came out of the shower, she was gone. That was nothing unusual for her."
 
 His wife often would head out without telling him where she was going, he said.
 
 "She doesn't tell me when she's going to the store, and I just find out when I see her come home with the bags," he said.
 
 Married since September
 
 The couple met six and a half years ago when Tracey was working at a Wawa convenience store in Pasadena, and Dennis would stop by for his morning coffee before getting on the road.
 
 They lived together for five years before Tetso said he "popped the question and put the rock on her finger."
 
 Before 100 friends and family last September at Ferndale Methodist Church in Glen Burnie, they exchanged wedding vows.
 
 From the start, friends and family say they had their doubts about the union.
 
 "Even on her wedding day I asked her, 'Is this what you want?'" said her father, Richard Gardner of Ferndale. "She said, 'I guess so.'"
 
 Alisha Barnes, a friend and co-worker of Tracey's, was a bridesmaid.
 
 "She had love for him, but she was not in love with him," Barnes said. "But she had invested so much time, and by that time she was planning a wedding and had bridesmaids, too.
 
 "She thought maybe it would work out in the end."
 
 By December, Tracey "wanted to call it quits," her father said.
 
 Family and friends said she had contacted a lawyer to begin divorce proceedings.
 
 Dennis Tetso said the problems were nothing out of the ordinary.
 
 "Everybody's relationship ain't perfect," he said. "She wasn't a bad person. She was a good girl. And for the record, I love her with all my heart."
 
 Tetso said he knew that his wife had begun seeing Sinnott but took the news in stride.
 
 "Hey, what are you going to do? Things happen," he said. "We decided to pretty much separate for a bit and see what goes from there."
 
 Tetso said he still resides at their house, along with her two dogs, Tasha and Spike.
 
 "It's just me and the dogs. We sit there in the house waiting for her to come home," he said. "It's all we can do."
 
 Tracey's father said there is no way his daughter would leave what she loved most - her pets and her grandmother, Rose Smith. Smith and her husband, who died two weeks ago, raised the woman.
 
 "We have had some hard times in this family lately," her father said.
 
 Gardner said he appreciated how attentive Tetso would be toward Tracey's grandmother. But his opinion changed when his son-in- law cried about the problems he was having in his marriage at Tracey's grandfather's funeral.
 
 "I said, 'You guys are having problems, you sort your own battles out.'" Gardner said. "I mean, this was at a funeral. To me, he turned from being a nice guy into a weasel."
 
 Tetso was "way too possessive," Gardner said. "She couldn't go anyplace or talk with anybody. It started to scare her."
 
 Gardner, also a truck driver, said he tries to keep his mind focused on his work.
 
 "As long as I am busy, I am fine," he said. "I am hoping she just got mad at the world, and she'll pop back up and I'll yell at her a bit, and everything will be fine."
 
 Anyone with information about Tracey Tetso or her vehicle is asked to call Baltimore County police at 410-307-2020.
