According to Jennifer, she never answered calls from her ex-boyfriend on the day Roxanne disappeared; however, cell phone records paint a different picture. Between July 8, 2006 and July 9, 2006, there were 22 calls placed from Roxanne's cell phone to Jennifer's cell phone, ranging from 1 to 49 minutes in length. For someone who had nothing to say, she took long enough not to say it.
Since Roxanne's disappearance, her mother has been looking back at other incidents in her daughter's life that might shed some light on what could have happened to her. One memory in particular haunts her. She related the time she took her daughter to the emergency room, not too long before her disappearance.

Roxanne Paltauf |
"One time, Roxanne and her boyfriend were down on 6th street. It is like a bar street here in Austin, where they do like Mardi Gras type stuff. She said that she and Lewis (the boyfriend) were down there one evening and that Lewis got into a confrontation with a Hispanic guy. Roxanne supposedly tried to stop the fight, and she was pushed and her nose was broken. It was actually completely detached. This is the story she told me, but after she come up missing, her friends told me that she said a certain someone else broke her nose and that she was covering up for him."
One troubling thing about this case is the fact that investigators never took trace evidence or used luminol or similar tests to search for traces of blood in the hotel room.
"I really think something happened in that hotel. Something happened, and someone is covering it up," Elizabeth said.
