Attorney Says Palmgren Property Has Been Available For Search From The Start
Says Gail Palmgren Had "Psychotic Episode" Week Before She Disappeared
posted June 18, 2011
Attorney Lee Davis said the husband of a missing Signal Mountain woman has been open to a search of all his property from the day his wife vanished.
Attorney Davis said, "I told Signal Mountain (Police) in the first 15 minutes of talking to them about the case that they were welcome to search any of Matt Palmgren's property."
He said about 10 days ago a formal order was signed by himself and Neal Pinkston of the district attorney's office allowing permission of a search of the Palmgren home in the St. Ives subdivision, of the family's lake house northeast of Montgomery, Ala., and of their storage shed.
Gail Palmgren disappeared April 30 in her crimson red 2010 Jeep Rubicon.
Attorney Davis said he does not know if the searches have been carried out, but he said he knows that authorities went through the lake house. He said the authorities have also been at the home on Signal Mountain, but he does not know if they have been inside.
He also said he spoke to a couple in Hoover, Ala., who said Ms. Palmgren "had a psychotic episode" while at their house a week before she disappeared.
Attorney Davis said Ms. Palmgren "showed up uninvited" and spent two nights with the family friends.
He said the husband, an attorney, told him, "Gail was flat f----- up. She was out of her mind."
The couple said Ms. Palmgren had her two children with her, and she noted she had not gotten them any Easter candy. They said the wife took Ms. Palmgren to a store and they became separated. Ms. Palmgren then called the police on the couple, claiming they were trying to take her children away from them.
They said that weekend Ms. Palmgren told them she believed someone was following her and trying to get her tag number.
The husband said she took side roads on their way to their house from her lake house - and the trip took four and a half hours instead of the normal two hours.
Attorney Davis said of the case, "No one in law enforcement has accused Matt Palmgren of anything. They continue to treat it as a missing person case."
He said Mr. Palmgren continues to work to locate her, including hiring former Chattanooga Police Department major crimes detective Mike Mathis to try to track her down.
He said, "This case involves more than one jurisdiction and state so we felt he could work more quickly than law enforcement agencies."
Attorney Davis said one witness attorney Mathis wants to interview is Carol Coppinger, who said she saw Ms. Palmgren on a remote trail on Signal Mountain in the red Jeep on the afternoon and evening of the day she disappeared. She said another woman was in the Jeep with her.
The attorney noted that Matt Palmgren has lost both his wife and his job. He said, "He's under tremendous stress. It's very hard. He's trying to take care of two small children with the help of his mother."
