AL AL - Brittney Wood, 19, Mobile, 31 May 2012 - #12

[Eileen730]

It's very probable DH went to Chessie s home and saw Britt. I do not think she left with him but her phone e and her gun did . The phone because it belonged to DH and the gun because he would get rid of it for them they never thought he would take his own life with it
Imo these ppl didn't kill her they were trying to protect her and themselves.

All jmvoo

From KateB's awesome chart, by June 22 Donnie was dead and Scott and Dustin had already been arrested. And Chessie is still saying Brittney left her house without care. I'll check, but I think Chessie starts with her new story of Brittney "paying the ultimate price" right about the time Derek was arrested for his sex crimes. Suddenly Chessie starts blaming Donnie for everything. Was she finally telling the truth, or was she protecting Derek by diverting blame???

"MOBILE, Ala. (WALA) - The mother of missing mom Brittney Wood is reaching out to her daughter. Wood has been missing since May 30.

Chessie Wood said it has been tough on the family. She said she can’t eat or sleep.

"We just miss her and want her to come home," said Wood.

As of Friday, Wood hasn’t seen her daughter in 22 days.

"She was happy as she could be. She wasn't upset at all. She walked out of my yard carrying a blue bag and just i thought she was going to a friend's (house.) That was the last time I saw her,” said Wood."

Remember Derek said "come back home I will protect you!"

Re: gun, bullets

I still find CW's statement, something to the effect of, that BW only kept two bullets in, supposedly, her gun, HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS!

Makes me wonder if CW knew/knows full well that the gun was used/bullet(s) shot prior to DH supposedly using it.

It's that issue of offering too much info (and very odd info) which usually/can mean/s it's a lie.

Hey Brittney

Not sure I'll be online tomorrow, going to wish you a happy mother's day today. P is so beautiful, and memaw will give her a hug for you.

Ditto for her ability to identify a phone battery when multiple player's phones use the same identical battery.

BBM - What date was KlaasK asked to help with BW's missing case? TIA

June 11, 2012
MOBILE, Alabama -- A candlelight prayer vigil for Brittney Wood will be held at 7 tonight at Travis Road Baptist Church, a spokesman for the Wood family said today.

Wood, 19, was last seen May 30 when she told family members that she was going to visit a friend, but never showed up. Family members filed a missing person report with the Mobile Police Department on June 2.

Family members attended a news conference in Pensacola this morning announcing that they will be receiving help from the KlaasKids Search Team. The team is associated with Marc Klaas, the father of Polly Klaas, a 12-year old girl who was kidnapped and murdered in 1993.

Glad you posted this, Quester. It's a good article and these detectives deserve honor for the work they do to protect children and the innocent.

Appreciate all the work and awareness BrittsStepMom has done. It's heartwarming, all the steady sleuthers here are such good people who really care.

@ Steph or anyone who can answer, TIA

Re: kPH [CW's "husband"] and his brother

1. In what city did the brother live when BW went missing?

a. Miles from CW/kPH's home?
​

2. Where was the "out of town work"?

a. Approx how many miles from CW's home?
b. Did they actually go there/clocked in/worked?
c. What kind of work?
d. All corroborated?
​

3. Whose vehicle ["truck", I believe Steph wrote] did they take?

a. Is that vehicle still owned by whoever owned it when BW was last seen alive @ CW's house?
​

4. Did "security cameras" also capture images of that truck?

a. Who all was/how many were photod/id'd in truck?
b. Was bed of truck visible in cameras' shots? Anything suspicious?
​

5. When did they return home? (approx time/date)

I respect your thoughts. If Britt was leaving town, I understand the reason behind getting rid of her phone. I am curious why you think Brittney would allow DH or anyone to take her gun especially if she was getting out of dodge? If she was 'running' wouldn't she feel the need to keep her gun for protection? Derek's comment about 'protecting her' follows the logic that Britt was in fear of something or someone. The letter makes it apparent Brittney was a threat to those facing charges. It just seems nonsensical to me that Brittney would 'run' yet leave her gun behind.

JMO but I seriously doubt that gun was BW's. I think it just became convenient for some to say it was BW's and to further embellish the story by saying BW only kept two bullets in it. :notgood: and all JMO.

ETA: If it was, in fact, BW's gun ...

Yes, LE has denied ever stating it was Brittney's gun. We only have Chessie's "version du jour".

"July 20, 2012: The gun used in Donnie Holland's suicide is reported to belong to Brittney Wood, however, Lowery has since denied the connection."

I emailed the reporter for clarification and posted her reply 5-31-13:

I'm quoting my post here because I heard back from the reporter. She was very nice with her quick reply! I shared and discussed the email with a mod and was given the go-ahead to post this:

"In so many words, this was the reporter's reply: BW was underage, so the gun couldn't be registered in her name. Family members admitted knowing she owned a gun, but would not comment on how it was obtained. When she asked Lowery about the statement which said BW's gun was used in DH's suicide, he denied any knowledge of a LE source issuing such a statement. Consequently, to this day, the reporter has been unable to confirm the gun's owner."

"I can say for a fact, Wally and I never heard mention of Brittney having a gun until the morning of June 2,2012 when Chessie told us she was waiting to hear what kinda of gun DH used since Brittney had a gun with 2 bullets. And the person that she supposedly bought the gun from denied it due to not his gun either. But AH told us & LE that said "guy" did have that gun or on identical like 2 weeks prior . AH told us & LE he saw it when guy put it in AH's face. But no report was filed. So I have NO idea who's gun that was.

You could go with the theory that Britt got it and sold it to DH or WWH for that matter. Or you could go with the story CW has said from the beginning that it was Britt's"

Thanks Gliving! And interesting!

So was "said 'guy'" BW's ex-b/f who moved to Texas?

Was he the one visiting w/BW a few short hours prior to BW supposedly having left CW's door/yard?

W 5/30/2012; 5pm-ish ... a male friend of Britt's went to CW's house to visit with BW. The friend "said he saw CW and P[aul]" there. Little P was not there. Regarding BW's demeanor, Steph wrote the friend "Didn't notice anything out of the norm". According to Steph the friend did not say anything about discord between CW and BW about babysitting or anything else. According to Steph the friend said "[BW] told him she was going to visit/stay with a uncle in Styx River". http://www.websleuths.com/forums/showpost.php?p=10485198&postcount=582

Ok, so that I understand this correctly.

In August (2014) the trials begin in Baldwin County for charges they have been indicted on by the grand jury?

On May 15 (2014) they will be officially charged in Mobile Co due to the grand jury indictment?


Also, I've been working on sleuthing Butch Morgan. Please feel free to PM me with any post you find related to BM, I do have some, however there are a lot of post to read. What I find most interesting is Butch's stay in bed for the week Britt went missing.

My plan is to attend the Baldwin Co trials when they do begin.
