For over two years, though, Dia’s family has been left without answers about her mysterious disappearance. Clinton just wants to know what happened and has revealed how he believes Keith knows more about his mother’s case than he is letting on. In addition, he does not believe that Keith and his mother were ever actually engaged.
After Keith was asked if he had any involvement with Dia’s disappearance, though, he claimed: “absolutely not.”
Tensions between Keith and Dia’s children also heated up last month after a settlement agreement regarding Dia’s estate was set to be heard in court. The draft settlement was filed in Palm Springs and called for the sale of Dia’s Bonita Vista Ranch, as well as two other properties that she owned.
Proceeds from the sale would first fund a three hundred thousand dollar reward for any information that leads to the discovery of Dia and a conviction in her case. This alone is why Clinton was in favor of the agreement in the first place.
“I am really hopeful that it will lead to a break in the case,” he said in an interview with CBS8.
If the sixty-five-year-old is not found within the next three years, though, then Dia will be declared dead. At that point, the agreement would call for a fifty-fifty split of her liquidated estate.
Fifty percent of the funds would go to her children, Crisara and Clinton. Then, the other fifty percent would go to Keith.
It also came to light that just two weeks before Dia went missing, she signed a trust document designating Keith as a co-trustee and beneficiary of her estate– something Dia’s children have petitioned against in court.
In 2021, Clinton and Crisara went to probate court and filed a petition in hopes of having Keith removed as a trustee. They alleged that Keith was still a suspect in their mother’s case.
Keith vehemently denied the allegations, though, and alleged that Clinton was also a suspect in Dia’s disappearance as well.
Keith has since launched a website advertising the ranch as a wedding venue, and additional court records claim that he is planning to roll out construction work on the property.
