Add another mystery to the case of missing baby Lisa Irwin.

Cyndy Short, the Kansas City-based attorney working on behalf of Lisa's parents Deborah Bradley and Jeremy Irwin, is no longer representing the pair and is holding a a press conference Monday to explain why.

Short was the couple's local rep. High profile defense attorney Joe Tacopina from New York is also representing them.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, the two attorneys had differing opinions on allowing Deborah's older children, who were in the house the night Lisa went missing, from being interviewed by the cops.

Short was opposed to it, while Tacopina wanted them to go forward. The scheduled interviews with the boys were canceled on Thursday.

In an emailed statement sent out Sunday, Short said that while she is no longer working for Lisa's parents, she and her team will "continue in the search for baby Lisa as concerned citizens."

Come back to RadarOnline.com Monday for more on this developing story.

The mom's on aniti-depressants and drinking with a baby who cries a lot and two rambunxious boys. I'm thinking she
got so angry and frustrated that she shook baby Lisa to make her stop crying and she died. Prayers to Lisa.

Agree; and wish she'd tell police, won't be as bad as she might think.. but instead she's hiding not searching every nook & cranny, she's going to be despised like Casey Anthony unless she speaks. RIP sweet baby Lisa. :(

Greedy Joe Taco offered the fake $100K reward to draw attention to this case & himself & the other lawyer was in his limelight. This isn't rocket science, he doesn't care about the baby or her killer mother. Funny thing is Joe Taco never wins cases.

Cops aggressively accused them & scared them to death & now conflicting advice from 2 high powered attorneys; they're confused & terrified at this point plus global media at their door & accusing comments everywhere. Hope they're innocent.

Cops aggressively tried to find their missing baby while they lied & changed stories, don't you think Lisa is a little more scared than these 2 pigs? Oh wait Deborah killed her, Lisa won't be scared anymore. :((

A loving mom is a responsible mom that does NOT drink many glasses of wine and take anti depressants while small children are in her care. There were THREE children in her care!!! She put ALL of them at risk.

They refuse tp be interviewed w/out one another. They refuse to let the boys be interviewed. They refused to allow the entire home to be searched by police. WTF are they doing to find their baby???
NOTHING!

I tried hard to give the benefit of the doubt to the parents. The mother is truly grieving and the videos of the baby show she is loved and cared for. However, everything they are doing makes them look more and more guilty.
