It’s been more than two weeks since 17-year-old Brittanee Drexel went missing after coming to Myrtle Beach for spring break without her mother’s permission.
Drexel’s mother, Dawn Drexel, and stepfather, Chad Drexel, appeared on the Dr. Phil show last week to plead for their daughter’s return.
“It’s seems to me that someone took Brittanee. Either she got in the car willingly or may have met somebody here that maybe she trusted that she was hanging out with since that Wednesday when she came down to South Carolina,” Dawn Drexel told Dr. Phil.
“I don’t feel that Brittanee got hurt, I just have a gut feeling as her dad that she’s run somewhere,” Chad Drexel said.
Dr. Phil asked Chad Drexel if he knew Brittanee was going to Myrtle Beach and he said no.
“I thought she was home with my ex-wife,” Chad Drexel said.
The Drexels also confronted Peter Brozowitz, who was reportedly the last person to see Brittanee before her disappearance, on the show.
“I know just as much as the media, and like I said the media twisted everything that’s going on, and you weren’t there,,” Brozowitz said. I was there with four other people and I’m the one that is singled out.”
Brozowitz appeared on the show with his attorney, John Parrinello, who told Dr. Phil that Brozowitz talked Brittanee Drexel into staying before she decided to leave the Bluewater Hotel where she met Brozowitz and few of his friends.
“Peter submitted a DNA sample at the request of Myrtle Beach (police) and there is no possible way that Peter Brozowitz had anything to do with Brittanee’s disappearance,” Parrinello said.
Dawn Drexel told Dr. Phil she’d spoken with Brozowitz the day her daughter went missing, but said he gave her three different scenarios, and that’s why she said her family thought that Brozowitz may know something.
“Any kind of a friend — I don’t care if you’re a guy or a girl — if you knew that Brittanee was walking that far from one hotel to the other if you’re a gentleman, then why wouldn’t you walk my daughter to her hotel or drive her there knowing it was dark out that night?” Dawn Drexel asked Brozowitz via satellite.
“I’m on spring break. I’m not there to babysit anybody and I don’t know Brittanee like that,” Brozowitz replied. (It's called common courtesy, something many teen boys are lacking these days. It's not going to hurt anyone to take a few minutes out of your night of drinking and skirt chasing to walk a girl home. Even if she is just someone you know a little bit.)
“It just doesn’t look right. It’s fishy,” Dawn Drexel said.
