Man accused in 2016 Farmington Hils woman's killing gets new February trial date

A 38-year-old man who is accused in the 2016 killing of a Farmington Hills woman whose body was never recovered is scheduled to face a jury in February after being granted a new trial date.
Floyd Galloway is charged with first-degree murder in connection with the disappearance and presumed killing of Danielle Stislicki, who was last seen Dec. 2, 2016, leaving her workplace with Galloway, a former security guard for the Southfield office building where they both were employed. Stislicki's parents reported her missing the next day after finding her purse, ID and credit card in the building's parking lot.
Galloway was charged with murder in March 2019. Since then, the case has been marked with multiple twists, turns and delays.
In the latest turn, Oakland County Circuit Court Judge Michael Warren on Wednesday rescheduled the trial to Feb. 2 after it was originally set to begin in March. A June 25 pretrial hearing was also set. Warren was assigned the case after the previous judge, Phyllis McMillen, retired.
Galloway is serving a prison sentence for a separate assault. The case has been caught up in legal wrangling for years involving evidence from the defendant's leaked polygraph, which was deemed inadmissible for trial.
U.S. Supreme Court earlier this year declined to rule on whether Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel’s office can use evidence that was ruled inadmissible for trial by a lower court judge. The Attorney General's office filed multiple appeals challenging McMillen’s ruling that evidence given to Troy police by a former FBI agent could not be used during trial because it violated Galloway's attorney-client privilege and right to due process.
Galloway's attorney Ellen Michaels said it is unjust that the Attorney's General tried to double down on its fight to use the evidence. State law does not allow for polygraph examiners to share any information they learned during the test with an outside party without obtaining written consent.
The former FBI agent, Jim Hoppe, conducted a polygraph examination for Galloway and told then-Troy Police Chief Gary Mayer what he had learned. Mayer then passed the tip — identifying Galloway as a suspect and giving information about what he had allegedly done the night of the murder — to the then-Farmington Hills Police Chief Charles Nebus, who was investigating Stislicki's case.
Hoppe told Mayer he was concerned about possible evidence being lost in an upcoming snowstorm and said he wanted his name kept out of the tip.
Officers used the information to obtain search warrants for Galloway’s home, car and cellphone, seeking evidence, including car keys and a Fitbit belonging to the missing woman. Those items were later found by police near Stislicki’s apartment.
“Investigation of the privileged tip led to discovery of critical evidence that defendant tried to dispose of Stislicki’s belongings shortly after she was last seen and conceal doing so, greatly strengthening the case against him,” the state Court of Appeals panel wrote in its September 2023 ruling.
The Oakland County Prosecutor’s Office declined several times to issue a criminal warrant in the case because of the tainted source of information, Michaels said in 2022 when she asked McMillen to dismiss the case or quash evidence.
 

Appeals court upholds suppression of bank card evidence in Danielle Stislicki case​

Prosecutors who appealed an Oakland County judge’s ruling last year suppressing evidence gleaned from the bank card of Danielle Stislicki’s suspected killer recently lost their bid.

In a Jan. 9 unpublished opinion, a Court of Appeals panel ruled that Floyd Galloway, Jr.’s purchase of a new comforter soon after Stislicki disappeared more than nine years ago can’t be presented at his trial in Oakland County Circuit Court — scheduled to start Feb. 2.
