"Some of the story we heard from the beginning with him led us to believe he was the key to this case that … he was the one who was going to have the answers we were looking for," Allen County Sheriff Ken Fries said Tuesday night, CNN reported.
"He was the one who saw her last. He was the one who had the most contact with her."
Meanwhile, officials said Wednesday that Plumadore was wanted in Florida for violating probation in 2000.
Florida Department of Corrections records show Plumadore was charged in May 2000 with battery on a law enforcement officer, firefighter or EMS worker in Miami-Dade County, and was later sentenced to a year of community supervision.
