POINTS of INTEREST:

John placed a cell phone call to a friend at 7:09pm confirming that he would meet for a dinner date in Oak Brook, IL. at 8:30pm, but he was never to arrive.

John's friend, Renata Bielskis, reported that she had contacted the St. Charles Police Department shortly after his uncharacteristic disappearance on the evening of February 23rd. The St. Charles P. D. failed to recognize Miss Bielskis' concerns for reason that she was not qualified to file a report.

While no further communication was received from John Spira, his cell phone did continue to 'ping' off of two (2) local service towers until 11:00pm that night.

Spira's estranged wife, Suzanne, a woman with which John had attended a formal meeting on the morning of February 23rd for the purpose of detailing their divorce settlement, was finally coaxed into filing an official missing person's report with the St. Charles Police Department at 5:30am of the following Sunday, February 25th, 2007. The couple's divorce was to be official on March the 8th.

Suzanne Spira has since hired an attorney. She has not been seen at any of the organized searches or at Spira's candlelight vigil, nor has she assisted in any of John's family's efforts to find him. In fact, Spira's immediate family is not aware of any effort (at all) on behalf of Susan Spira to find him.

Although this case was originally filed with the St. Charles, IL. Police Department, it is now categorized under the jurisdiction of the Du Page County Sheriff's Office for reason that Spira disappeared in an unincorporated area within the parameters of Du Page County.

Some of John's employees at Universal Cable have officially reported a large roll of plastic "tarp" material to be missing from the premises, but Du Page County Police believe that John simply walked away from his life, stating that there is no evidence to prove otherwise.

John's Business was burned to the ground Sunday, September 16, 2007. The (now) gutted building that was once home to former Du Page County "Business of the year" nominee, Universal Cable Construction Inc., is co-owned by John's estranged wife and the wife of John's business partner, David W. Stubben.
