Police looking for witnesses in Madison County in connection to Madalina Cojocari case

The Cornelius Police Department is asking for additional witness information in connection to the case of missing 11-year-old Madalina Cojocari. On Friday, investigators released a photo of a Toyota Prius. They said Madalina's mother, Diana Cojocari, may have been in Madison County, North Carolina sometime between Nov. 22 and Dec. 15. The trip may be connected to the girl's disappearance as this is the three-week period between when Madalina was last seen and when she was reported missing -- a gap in the timeline that is critical to the ongoing investigation. Madalina's mother Diana Cojocari remains in custody, charged with failure to report the young girl's disappearance. “They have some evidence that she was spotted, or her car was spotted in this area,” M. Quentin Williams, a former FBI agent who is not involved in this case said. It was not immediately clear what the nature of the trip was.
