Eventually Luhellier moved out of the house he shared with Toliver and into one of the houses they owned across the street. He quitclaimed his interest in the old house to Toliver, who sold it to Edward J. McGimsey for $45,000. Toliver moved in with McGimsey in Clinton, Tennessee in late 1999, when he renewed his driver's license in 2000, he gave his address as Luhellier's residence.

When they arrived at McGimsey's residence, Toliver's parents found no holes in the wall, no bloodstains and no other signs of a fight. There was no indication of Toliver's whereabouts, however, and he left all his clothes and belongings behind except for his dog. McGimsey said Toliver had left on February 4 to see friends in Atlanta, Georgia. He said he'd dropped Toliver off at the first rest area on Interstate 75 at the Tennessee/Georgia border and his Atlanta friends were supposed to pick him up there. Toliver was allegedly carrying $200 in cash. After another two weeks passed and his parents didn't hear from him, they reported him missing. About a month after Toliver was reported missing, Luhellier brought his mail to his parents. Some of the letters were addressed to Toliver at Luhellier's home address. Some of them were return mail bearing address-forwarding labels to places where his parents say Toliver never lived. Two of the towns listed on the address-forwarding labels were towns where Luhellier has allegedly lived before, however.
