At the time of her disappearance, Stislicki lived at Independence Green Apartments, an apartment complex near Halstead Road and Grand River Avenue in Farmington Hills, Michigan.
Stislicki worked at MetLife, an insurance company on Telegraph Road in Southfield, Michigan

On December 2, 2016, Stislicki left work at 5:00 pm, with plans to meet a childhood friend at 5:30 pm for dinner followed by a sleepover at her place.
Danielle Ann Stislicki never showed up to dinner with her friend, and has not been heard from since.
On December 3, 2016, her vehicle, a black 2015 Jeep Renegade, was found parked just eight feet away from her apartment door in Farmington Hills, Michigan.
The car was locked, and her her purse, credit cards, and driver’s license were found inside, but her cell phone was missing.

No signs of a struggle or foul play was found inside her car or apartment. Her phone record, bank account, and social media have had no activity since she disappeared.
Floyd Russell Galloway Jr
30 year old Floyd Galloway was named as a person of interest in Danielle Ann Stislicki’s disappearance after several witnesses reported seeing them together on the night she went missing.
In 2016, Floyd Galloway was employed as a security guard at a Southfield building where Stislicki and her mother worked.
He was a student at a private school and was married. He had no criminal history other than a misdemeanor charge for operating while intoxicated back in 2008.
On December 22, 2016, authorities searched Galloway’s home on Oxford Road in Berkley, Michigan. A mattress, computers, and some floorboards among other items were taken out of the home. His car was also removed from the garage.
Person of interest arrested in sexual assault case
On June 28, 2017, Floyd Galloway was arrested for sexually attacking a 28-year-old female jogger at Hines Park in Livonia, Michigan. The event occurred on September 4, 2016, just a few months before Stislicki disappeared.
On November 21, 2017, Floyd Galloway pleaded guilty to kidnapping, criminal sexual conduct, assault with intent to commit sexual penetration, assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder by strangulation, and assault with intent to murder.
On December 08, 2017, Floyd Galloway was sentenced to 16 to 35 years in prison. Under the plea agreement, the intent to murder charge was dropped and he will have to register as a sex offender for life.
Floyd Galloway charged in murder of Danielle Stislicki
On March 5, 2019, Galloway was charged with the premeditated first degree murder of Danielle Stislicki. A trial date is set for March 2022.
According to witnesses, Stislicki and Galloway were last seen talking together in the parking lot after she left the MetLife office building. She was later seen driving out of the property with Galloway in the passenger seat of her car.
A vehicle resembling Stislicki’s Jeep Renegade was captured traveling eastbound on 11 Mile Road around 5:03 pm, and westbound at 7:56 pm. As Galloway lived on Oxford Road in Berkley, 11 Mile Road would have been a convenient thoroughfare back to his residence.
Later that evening, a cab driver picked up Galloway at Tim Horton’s, a fast food restaurant near Grand River Avenue and 10 Mile Road, about a ten minute walk from Stislicki’s apartment complex.
Authorities recovered Stislicki’s key chain and Fitbit between her apartment complex and the Tim Horton’s restaurant.
When questioned by authorities, Galloway said the last time he had seen Stislicki a few months prior to her disappearance.
The prosecution contends Stislicki drove Galloway to his home in Berkley, as he had told her his car had broken down. They believe she was murdered inside his home, and he then drove her vehicle back to her apartment before walking to a nearby Tim Horton’s restaurant to call a cab.
On June 13, 2022, the murder trial was delayed over questions regarding a polygraph test Galloway had taken, and whether the reported information he gave his polygrapher can be admitted in court.
Whereabouts
Foul play is strongly suspected in Danielle Ann Stislicki’s disappearance and authorities believe she was the victim of a homicide.
Floyd Russell Galloway Jr, who is currently serving time in a state prison, was charged with premeditated first-degree murder in her case and is awaiting trial.
The circumstances of Danielle Ann Stislicki’s disappearance remain unclear and her case is currently classified as homicide. Her case remains unsolved.
