Shaida Ghaemi disappeared from a Wheat Ridge motel nearly two months ago. Her boyfriend, Jude Peters, is one of the last people to see and speak with her.
"She's done this before, she's left me and a couple months later she comes back," said Peters.
Peters is considered a person of interest in the case. Investigators found blood in the couple's motel room. They had stayed there for about a month.
DNA tests determined that the blood was Ghaemi's, but Wheat Ridge Police couldn't determine if the amount found was consistent with "serious injury." Peters says the blood was menstrual.
"No crime happened in the motel, that's a joke. Ask her family, her ex-husband, she is high (referring to her monthly cycle)," Peters said.
"The blood, again, is suspicious. We don't know why she was bleeding, that's why we need the public to come forward so we can find where she is and make sure she's OK," said Wheat Ridge Police Detective Scott Jungclaus.
Jungclaus and Ghaemi's son spoke at news conference earlier the week and explained that the mother of two grown children called her family every two or three days. Peters disagreed and says his girlfriend of about a year and half left for unspecified family problems.
"She's fed up. They put so much pressure on her, so we both spoke and she said she had to do what she had to do," said Peters.
Police have said Peters has been cooperating with investigation and did submit a list of possible locations where she may be and people she may be with.
"Mr. Peters did give us leads that he felt were credible to follow up, but those leads have been followed up and are exhausted," said Jungclaus.
Echoing Ghaemi's family, Peter says he's hoping she'll contact someone soon. The family is offering a $2,000 reward for information that can lead to her whereabouts. Wheat Ridge Police are asking people with information about this case to call 303-235-2957.
