Taking Care Of His Wife
According to Ed, “My wife had a whole bunch of medical issues. She’s in worse shape than he [Conley] is. So I’m kind of strapped in that respect.” But then it would come to surface that Conley also had a caregiver for some time, and she too, wanted to know where the old man was, so she began asking around.
Reporting Him Officially Missing
It would all seem very bizarre to everyone that Ed had claimed his father had run off in his advanced age with his supposed girlfriend. And since the old man was seemingly missing, finally in January, the Marion County Sheriff’s Office decided to make an official report, and in doing so, got a warrant to search the family residence.
