Update: February 2017 - The man on trial for murder in a cold case spanning more than 15 years was found guilty of first-degree murder. David McMannis was accused of assisting in the murder of 19-year-old Tara Sidarovich at her Punta Gorda home. He was immediately sentenced to life in prison following his conviction, the state attorney’s office said. The Charlotte County Sheriff's Office is investigating the death of Tara Danielle Sidarovich, age 19, 5'05" approx 150lbs with light brown hair. On October 1, 2001 at approx 5:30pm Deputies responded to a Westwood Drive address in Punta Gorda in reference to a possible burglary. It was found that jewelry was missing, but there were no signs of forced entry. It was further learned that the residence was occupied by Tara during the day and her whereabouts were unknown. Tara had stayed home waiting for some home maintenance repairs. When her mother returned home she was unable to locate her daughter. On July 12, 2002 the skeletal remains of Tara were located in a wooded area off of Burnt Store Road in Punta Gorda and the Charlotte County Sheriff's Office is now investigating this as a Homicide. In October 2012, a warrant was issued for David Ray McMannis and Phillip Gavin Barr on charges of First Degree Murder in connection with the death of Tara Sidarovich. McMannis was arrested in Maryland and extradited to Charlotte County. Phillip Gavin Barr was arrested in the state of Vermont and is currently in custody awaiting trial. CCSO Cold Case Detectives are still investigating this case and if anyone has any information they are asked to contact the Charlotte County Sheriff's Office Cold Case Unit at (941)575-5361 or after hours call (941)639-2101, or email them at coldcase@ccso.org
