Dale Warner has been convicted of second-degree murder in connection with the 2021 disappearance of his wife, Dee Warner, in a case that proceeded without the recovery of her body.

Dee Warner disappeared in 2021, and her family members have maintained she was murdered. The case presented challenges for prosecutors due to the absence of physical remains, making it what investigators call a "no body" homicide case.

Following Warner's conviction, a billboard in Michigan reading "Help Dale Find Dee" has attracted widespread attention on social media. The billboard's message has taken on new significance in light of the guilty verdict.

The Warner children have expressed certainty that their mother was killed, though they acknowledged the difficulties of pursuing justice without physical evidence of her death. The case was featured in reporting by CBS News' "48 Hours" program.

No body murder cases present unique prosecutorial challenges, as they require building a case based on circumstantial evidence rather than physical proof of death. Despite these obstacles, prosecutors successfully convinced a jury of Warner's guilt in his wife's killing.
