TAMPA – People from around the country will rally Thursday to generate interest in the disappearance of Kelly Rothwell, the St. Petersburg police cadet who went missing in March from her Indian Rocks Beach condo.
CUE Center, a North Carolina group that highlights cases of missing people, will rally this morning in Tampa as part of a tour across the country. Many of Rothwell’s loved ones who have expressed frustration in the investigation are expected to attend.
At the event, attendees are expected to release butterflies and flowers to celebrate her life.
Police in St. Petersburg say they believe the man Rothwell lived with, 47-year-old David Perry, is involved in her disappearance. He is awaiting trial on an unrelated arrest in New York.
