Kelly Rothwell Disappears in Florida; Boyfriend David Perry Won't Help Police
![]() |
On March 12, Kelly Rothwell was having lunch with a friend in Indian Rocks Beach, Florida. She was a police recruit in training, and she had recently undergone instruction on domestic violence. She'd learned that her live-in relationship with David Perry wasn't healthy.
The two had met at a salad bar. Within weeks, he'd moved from New York into her Florida condo. But friends say he was controlling with an explosive temper. He was a former prison guard who'd gone on sick leave, then simply given up his job.
At that lunch, Kelly told her friend she planned to leave Perry. But she hasn't been seen since she left the restaurant that day. Her car was later found about two miles away in a hotel parking lot, but she'd never gotten a room at the place.
Curiously, Perry has refused to offer a DNA sample or talk to police about the matter. His lawyer has only provided a rough timeline of where he was in the hours after Kelly disappeared.
No one seems to believe she left on her own. She never missed a class of police training, and friends say she was anal about her schedule, rarely missing much of anything.
Perry, meanwhile, is described as the classic controlling boyfriend, a guy who monitored Kelly's internet use and texted her constantly. He returned to New York at the same weekend Kelly disappeared.
No charges have been filed, but detectives concede there's a good chance she may already be dead. (Special thanks to reader Captain America for the tip.)
| Kelly's boyfriend David Perry has refused to talk to police and has moved back to New York since her disappearance |
Kelly's mother Nancy Rothwell arrived in Florida this week to collect her daughter's belongings. She admits her daughter may be dead, and detectives seem to have drawn the same conclusion without expressly saying it.
Neighbor Ken Williamson says he heard loud noises coming from Kelly's townhome the night she disappeared. Perry and Kelly lived in the unit above his.
"It was a thumping and banging on the ceiling," he told WTSP-TV. "I don't know how to
describe it -- like somebody threw something down or threw
something on the ceiling real bad."
Meanwhile, detectives are putting the full-court press on Perry, even though he's refusing to cooperate. He came back to Florida on Sunday to clean out a storage unit. And police were there to scout him.
"He looked like he hadn't slept or eaten in several days, frazzled looking," Detective Mike Bailey told WTSP. "He was nervous, absolutely he was nervous, but I don't know if he was scared or not."
Asked if they were following him, the cops only smiled.
Adds Detective Amy Plourde: "I think it's been in his brain that he's been watched for some time now... He's a smart guy. It wouldn't surprise me that he would say that people have had eyes on him for a few days now."
| It now seems that David Perry's 21-year-old son is as big a pussy as his dad is |
UPDATE II: David Perry may have gotten away with murder -- at least for the time being -- but his family won't live in peace.
21-year-old David Perry Jr. was arrested in Indian Rocks Beach, Florida Friday night after bar patrons taunted him for being the son of a woman killer.
The younger Perry was drinking at Cuso's Club and Cantina when the decent people of Florida started giving him shit about his dad killing a police cadet.
The cops arrived at 12:40 a.m. to find Perry's friends trying to calm him down. Since no punches were thrown, he appears to have been doing Ye Olde Punk Ass in a Bar Maneuver, where he pretended he wanted to fight but was conveniently held back by his friends.
We're guessing he posed no threat to the crowd, since he's a pussy just like his dad, and they continued to mock him through his histrionics.
But he still wouldn't shut up after police arrived, yelling and cussing out the rest of the bar. He was arrested for disorderly conduct and placed in a pink cell with soft lighting to keep him from bawling and waking up the other inmates.
Meanwhile, there doesn't seem to be any movement in the case involving Kelly's disappearance. David Sr. still refuses to help police, and Kelly wasn't there when her cadet class graduated from the police academy last week.

You're so wrong. Guess you'll never be a court room lawyer. You can't even make a couch lawyer. He's gonna beat all the charges. Every last one of them. And take alook at the Florida case while you're at it. Whoops, that's as dead as it gets. Talk about an all out win.
that lawyer can intro anything he/she wants .... lots of 'em do. doesn't mean it'll happen. and it won't. doesn't meet the standard.
Mmmmm, nahhhhh, you need to read it in its entire context. You know, like amendments, special articles, exclusions, etc. I'm sure you are literate enough to find all its statutes, references, stc. And to top it all off, even if something were amiss, an appeal is surely feasible...Look at all the won appeals by the different accused that have been won in the similar situations. You'll find that over 97% have been over turned. But becuse of your intellect I'm most sure you've dismissed all the gathered criteria.
out of the mouth of Ms. Pancake . Great supporter for Kelly Rothwell Bring Kelly Rothwell Home The piece of shit will pay one way or the other; it may not be for your murder but it will be for what he's done to other people and to the city and the state of New York, and Social Security. He's a coward and a loser I womanizer a rapist and murderer and he will rot in hell one day; signed Leigh Clifton.
As an adult one should know ones self better. When I read the above statement from this 50 year old woman I cant help but think of how stupid she must be. Apparently this ding-a-ling gives thanks to Jehovah and only Jehovah for good moral choices made in her life. Am I the only one who questions who is to blame for this womans ignorant simple mindedness? How dumb does a person need to be to admit that without religious intervention they wouldn't know how to act. Does anyone suppose the pastor, preacher etc. speaking to someone like Luana Greenfield thinks to himself holy shit balls of fire you're a dumb cunt. How many stupid fucking people must we suffer through. Its food for thought.
Luana Greenfield David Perrys ex-wife writes: To all people men when children older ones there is a scripture in the bible that I love because I am not one who when someone hurts me returns the favor and never would, this is why. In Romans 12:17-19 it say "Return evil for evil to no one. Provide fine things in the sight of all men. If possible, as far as it depends upon You, be peaceable with all men. Do not avenge yourselves, beloved, but yield place to the wrath; for it is written: "Vengeneance is mine; I will repay, says Jehovah." We have no worries because our heavenly father will always come through for us and take care of us. We need to love our enemies and turn the other cheek, it truly is amazing how often people come around. Everyone have a great day even you David Perry.Religion has a funny way of turning stupid people into even stupider people.
Maybe you should read. Double jeopardy is being tried twice for the same crime. He hasnt been tried, he has been charged. When the judge got real parrticular and asked the DA to show recurring payments and not just the total amount it was lowered to a misdemeanor until the DA did that, or just let it continue as a misdemeanor. The DA had 30 days to represent the case, which the DA did. All it was is a technicality or a bump in the road, everything moves on as usual. I heard Pinnelas County is moving quite a bit too. I didnt see this scenario on your multiple choice test you keep giving,a,b or c. Maybe NONE OF THE ABOVE? judy
I mean c'mon...WTF??? Don't these people understand how the law works? I mean yah, sometimes it sux but hey, bottom line, if you're in the wrong and they can prove it, well then, they're going to get you, hook or crook, sort of speak...lololol... The damned as well as the guilty will get exactly what they deserve. PERIOD!!! And we all know he is deserving of something. At least the smart ones.
Morning Ric, good to see you, yeah it would look like they are going to find the proof to get the higher charges. I'm sure his supporter troll will be out in force on here as usual...what a dumbass.
Hey my2 long time...Just thought to check in on seeing what the family idiot has done again. I am like soooo behind. I see he's being brought up on new stuff all the time. Just goes to show ya, some way, some how, real law prevails. Wonder what the idiot supporters think now, and hey, I sure dont see many of them sticking it out anymore...lololol...Except of course for the trolls. Tenacious little things now aren't they...lololol...
You're absolutely incorrect!!! Please read the entire context of the statute...IDIOT!!!
It isn't double jeopardy unless he has already been tried and found not guilty. Idiot.
Unfortunately, that would be considered double jeopardy, will be taken as a mistrial and thrown out. You can not place a criminal for trial for the same thing twice. Perhaps the additional charge may carry on, but as for the original, it's moot.
David Perry has beens indicted by a second grand jury in Broome County on the original charges plus an additional one as well. Apparenlty, the Da demonstrated the amount paid to David Perry in total but the judge wanted the Da to show recurring payments or recuring monthly frauds committed which is why it was dropped to a misdemeanor originally. This was easily corrected as everything was in black and white and the case moves on. David Perry will be arraigned in Broome County early next week.
We all know what Leigh Clifton is about. She is just looking for attention. She is a single lonely woman is all. :)
Someone reliable told my sister Leigh Clifton is no longer welcome at any of Kellys gatherings and events. The riff between Donna and Leigh has widened. They said Leighs negative presence and manner is something Kelly would never want associated with her so Kellys friends and family have asked Leigh to stop commenting and involving herself. She has apparently worn out her welcome. The other thing they are saying is that she is to busy seeking attention for herself to be of any help. Ive known Leigh for many years and she always has a way of making people angry at her. She always thinks she knows better even if the person ask her to take it easy. She goes to far. I have pointed this out to her more than once. I believe its better that Leigh has been ask to not be involved for Kellys sake. Signed, Dorothy
I understand Davids charges in corning new york will be dropped and all his things including his money will be returned to him. So much for all those people who thought he was guilty.
What truly amazes me is the infighting between Kellys friend Donna S. and Leigh C. Perhaps the vast differences in their 2 personalities and the way they conduct themselves was to much for either to overlook. The divide seems to have had an effect on the momentum of support and any new interest. Donnas face book page continues to attract a steady stream of participation while Leighs has completely flat lined. Their personalities are as different as night and day. Donna continues to push for justice and uses a calm and mature approach while Leighs usual angry and immature approach has been silenced. Its a shame that Leigh Cliftons ugly behaviors were ever allowed to participate in this important fight. Many supporters including myself have tired of Leighs tactics and lost interest altogether. Maybe its time someone besides myself told Leigh to leave and showed her the door.
What do you suppose will happen to those petty larceny charges;A). Dropped altogether.B). Found not guilty.C). Found guilty; sentenced to 10 days in jail. ROFLMAOLOLOLOLOLOL
You people are not accomplishing a damn thing in here. No one really cares. Judy, Leigh, Lisa, Sandy, Nancy, Carolyn, Tony, Kara, Jolynn. Daphne etc, etc, are attention seekers. Plain and simple. You're an embarrassment to Kelly Rothwell. Grown people acting like stupid children. You have only succeeded in attracting the weirdest of the internet weirdos. No great revelation or break through is going to come from anything you nincome poops scheme up. I know you think you're helping but really you're not. The bunch of you haven't even got the courage to use your real names when defending Kelly. How can anyone take you serious? If this was a member of my family or a loved one: my name would proudly be plastered all over my postings. All day long you sit inhere anxious to engage in banter with anyone. You feed your inner self loathing with this ugly threads attentions. You're a sad sorrowful bunch. You're an embarrassment to Kelly Rothwell. You're a typical Jerry Springer fan. You believe Glenn Beck was a genius, and Sarah Palin should have been president. You embody everything that is wrong with our society. Knucklehead is to tame of a word to describe your simple mindedness. You're bottom feeders. You're an embarrassment to Kelly Rothwell. You haven't got the intellect or social decency to engage in a sensible productive conversation. Luckily the Rothwells have a respectable and kind voice rallying their cause through Donna Scharrett.The Rothwell family is suffering the greatest pain I could ever imagine; and from this rises you pack of fucktarded imbeciles. You're an embarrassment to Kelly Rothwell. Every last one of you so called supporters in this room should be ashamed of yourselves. Any/All excuses you attach to your behaviors in this room are moot. Your stupid,weird behavior is inexcusable. Plain and simple. You're an embarrassment to Kelly Rothwell.
Very well put Tampa, believe me there are people who still visit this thread and continue to pray for the Rothwell's continued strength and that one day she will be returned to them and justice served to the one that took her from them.
What exactly are the real facts? You got knowledge professor, you seem to know exactly what occurred, so where is Kelly? What is the explanation? Tell us why Mr. Perry innocent? Tell us his explanation? You come here and spew your non-sense but back nothing up, the supporters of finding KellyRothwell spew the facts of the actual actions of the "saint" you claim Mr. Perry to be. Pure and simple. Not once has Perry or any supporter of his (whether internet troll or not) has ever, EVER given one piece of evidence to believe he did not have something to do with her disappearance. Not on here or anywhere. I have actually come to respect Sic Ric, who I believe is genuine and knows nothing of he fate of Kelly Rothwell He has simply stated (and I am paraphrasing) he will get his day in court and if he as committed wrong, he should receive justice. If not, he goes on wth his lfe. I honestly cannot ask any more of anyone who has ever been associated with Mr. Perry. If he is innocent, why do you defend him? Why doesnt he defend himself? If he did nothing wrong, he shouldnt have to hide from the truth or have someone like you defending him. May the Almighty Grant the Strength to the Rothwells to wake up each morning and face the tragedy that is their lives. Great post Mrs. Linthrop.

It is jibber jabber. Its your dim witted view of something that aren't real facts. Blabbergas spews from your mouth. Lets hope Dave is found not guilty and allowed to move past this and begin to live his life to the fullest. I believe he will emerge from this stronger and better than before. He deserves to be happy. We pray for him and his loved ones.
it isnt jibber jabber you idot. Its fact. She or any of us that want that sweet girl brought back to her grieving parents dont need to point the blame, we know where it lies and so do you. You and anyone with a pulse know everything Mrs. Linthrop said was and is 100% true. You are nothing more then a trolling pond scumbag. And maybe the police could find the "actual person" (like they dont know) if that dirtbag would have helped from Day One. And as long as you brought God up, I am sure God is watching Mr. Perry and waiting, with that poor Rothwell girl at his side. God doesnt need DNA or witnesses, he is the judge I'd be worried about if I were him.
None of what you are saying makes any real sense. Its jibber jabber. You shouldnt try and play detective. David is a innocent man who will be found not guilty on all charges. If you want to point the blame start by asking why the police havent found the person responsible. Maybe you should get everyone to call the stueben county judge and insist that he is harse with david. Let the judge3 know how you feel about david and insist that he give it to him good. God has reduced david perrys charges because he knows he is not guilty. God is watching over him and will free him from these bonds. Praise Jesus Christ almighty
Thank you for your shining light of reason on this thread. We all still pray Kelly will at least be found, with or without the help of that asswipe Perry.
Oh, was he released from jail? Other people have prayers too for the wrongs most feel he has done. How about,,,,,THE ROTHWELLS?? Imagine not being able to have any closure for your daughter who has been missing for a year and a half? And the one man, (and I use that term loosely) who could have shed light on this whole thing (if he REALLY didnt do it) wont help in the least bit, nada, nil. If you had a argument with your significant other (even if you broke up) and you heard she was missing and the police wanted your help, would you drive from Florida to New york, then take a grand tour of the South East? Why wouldnt you help if you were innocent? Why would you put your own family through something like this if you could easily clear it up? Because its your constitutional right? PLEEEEASE. This man Literally RAN from police who only wanted to talk to him. But what does this guy do? Flee to New york, then a 5 day tour on the lamb. Was he broken hearted about the emotional break up with Kelly? Oh, he must have been, because he went to meet a new woman in las Vegas only four weeks later, then married her only 4 months later. I hope the Detectives here in Pinnelas County bring closure to the Rothwells. But hey, at least your prayers have been answered. I wouldnt leave 20 bucks on the counter if I was not home and neither would my husband, and we live in a gated community, but Perry leaves 120 thousand plus in his garage, wrapped in plastic and duct tape. He could afford two motorcycles, snow mobiles, new cars, trips to Vegas and Hawaii, but couldnt afford a $250 safe? Right, uh-huh. But we will never know right gorges? Or will we?

Just remember, COINTELPRO does exist. It's practiced by goverment, and citizen are being targeted and systematically being taken out. It's being over looked. COINTELPRO is practice by every branch of law enforcement from county to the highest level, and the tactics are very similar to the East German's STASI tactics during the post World War II Europe. Nobody will believe you. The tactics are so bizarre. They always go after the smart ones. The good ones. Precieved enemies of the state...They are pre-determined, and taken out years before they get a chance to make a difference. Citizen are now, as they have always been being targeted by our leadership. Since 9/11 everyday people are being targeted by our HOMELAND security. The post Bust 9/11 area had destroyed many of our personal freedoms. He was placed under surveillanc, and then stalked, harassed and mobbed rentlessly at Harrisburg Area Community College in Lancaster Pa and the surrounding area of South central Pennsylvania down into Delaware. A smoke screen is all it was. It certaily had nothing to do with a girl. Glass mirrors, and hidden doors! An Illusion of trickery! We almost broke him. In most cases 90% of the individuals targeted are broken and destroyed. We made a decision. It was nothing personal. But strangely everbody figured it out including the Judge, doctor, and the lawyers... We were doing all kinds of bizarre stuff to him in order to undermined his creditability and psych. We threw everything at him. Nothing seemed to work. We almost broke him, but it was all just a game to him. Just one big F$*king game! Strange, it was all just one big game to him. A joke! He ranged in the 10%, we almost broke him. Almost!
David Perrys grand larceny felony fraud charges were reduced to petite larceny a misdemeanor instead. This is wonderful news. His lawyer is doing a great job. Thank you Jesus. Our prayers have been answered. It just keeps getting better and better.
Hey people. Guess what. Bobody gives 2 shits about Leigh, Donna, Sandy or Tricia and what they are doing. All they do is fight and try to be more important than the other. Nobody cares because they are a bunch of whining bitches and they all think they are important. But they aren't. Perry is in jail in NY and Florida cops don't know what the hell they are doing. Give it up already and go back to your lives and stfu. Have a good day.

WETM 18 NEWS...Broome County - Charges against a Chemung County man accused of insurance fraud and faking an injury have been reduced.47 year old David Perry was originally charged with grand larceny and insurance fraud. According to a Broome County Court judge, there was insufficient evidence, which is why the charges were lessened. Perry's grand larceny charge was reduced to petit larceny. The insurance fraud charge was reduced from a felony to a misdemeanor.
