Smith and Parker appeared together on an episode of "The People's Court"" that aired on the day of her disappearance. They were in a dispute over a $5,000 engagement ring that she told the judge she threw at him during an argument. Parker was ordered by the judge to pay $2,500 for half the cost of the ring, and she made mention of a tempestuous past with Smith. "He gets pretty malicious and vindictive,"" Parker said on the show. And he's a mean person, especially when he's been drinking. He shouldn't have put his hands on me, and he shouldn't have put his hands on me prior. He shouldn't have left me three or four times over the past year-and-a-half that we've been together.""
