PLAINFIELD, Ill. (Crime Library) — Police have repeatedly stated that they have no suspects in the disappearance of Lisa Stebic, 37; however at about 11:30 p.m. Monday night, investigators with the Plainfield Police Department, the Joliet Police Department's Special Operation Squad and the FBI's Evidence Response Team descended on the Stebic family home at 13244 Red Star Drive, where Lisa's husband, Craig, 41, resides with the couple's 12-year-old daughter and 10-year-old son.

Authorities refuse to comment on what items they removed from inside the home. According to Charles Pelkie, a spokesman for Will County State's Attorney James Glasgow, the courts have sealed the contents of the warrant. All of the items taken from the house were covered up with blankets; however, police were unable to conceal the removal of Lisa's 2004 Saturn Ion and Craig's 2002 Chevrolet S-10 pickup truck, both of which are reportedly in a police impound lot.

"We need to focus part of our investigation on the fact that she may not have voluntarily disappeared," Police Chief Don Bennett told The Herald News.
Following the search, which lasted nearly two hours, Craig Stebic's attorney, Dion Davi, gave his own statement to the newspaper.
"They say he's not a suspect. They say he's not a person of interest. But they come in the middle of the night, take the kids out of their sleep and force them to sleep in a car while they search for hours," Davi told The Herald News. "They're trying to coerce a confession from my client when he's already stated his innocence."
