Alexander Smith, 27, disappeared from Virginia Beach after last being seen on October 15, 2000. His brother reported him missing on December 17, 2000. Alexander was described as a Black male, black hair, brown eyes, 5 feet 11 inches, about 180 pounds.

The couple’s relationship was volatile; Alexander had been seeking an assault warrant against his wife, Michele Rene Smith. Michele told police he drove off in her white 1982 Ford van and never returned. She had previously faced a 1993 shooting charge in which she said she acted in self-defense and the charge was dismissed. They had two daughters and had moved frequently during their marriage.

In 2005 an anonymous tip alleged Michele shot Alexander on the couch in their townhouse and used the van to dispose of his body. Alexander’s body has never been found and the disappearance remains unsolved.

Does anyone have information about Alexander’s movements in October 2000 or recall seeing that white 1982 Ford van?
