Maureen's father, Jim Fitzgerald, a retired Newark, N.J. police detective, doesn't buy Fields' suggestion that Maureen ran away. It has been nearly a year since she disappeared, and Maureen hasn't contacted anyone.
She was close to her family, her father said. "If Maureen had left with someone, we would have heard from her."

Fields claims he learned even more shocking news about his wife after she disappeared.
"She asked somebody to kill me," he says.
After Maureen disappeared, Fields says, a casino waitress told him that another casino worker named Kenneth Robichaud told someone that Maureen had tried to get him to kill Fields.
Fields says his wife and Robichaud knew each other from in Terrible's Town Casino Pahrump and were friends. "Then I find out they got a little friendlier than friendly," he says.

Sheriff's deputies later questioned Robichaud and arrested him on an unrelated drug charge.
Investigators have since told Crime Library they don't believe Maureen tried to have Fields killed.
Fields denies suggestions in the press and from his wife's family that the couple was on the verge of divorce.
