AL AL - Brittney Wood, 19, Mobile, 31 May 2012 - # 2

Oh come on!!!! (not at you Z) :maddening:

It does not take freakin Columbo to figure out that it is a hell of a coincidence that 3 of BW's uncles were being investigated and/or arrested for serious sexual crimes against FAMILY members!!!

I swear to baby cheezus (said in best Sophia Vergara voice) if LE doesn't investigate DH's suicide then they are nothing more than rent-a-cops and quite possibly the worst LE!!!!

I really, really hate to think that so hopefully they are just letting others implicate themselves and will nail them when they so deep they have no choice but to throw each other under the bus...

It doesn't help matters that each minute they waste a mother, father & daughter are distraught.

ITA. And if you read another post I made just moments ago, Mobile police are still saying BW is hiding. I'm pretty sure Baldwin County LE is taking a different approach.

I think Mom & Dad's homes are closer to one another, but it's hard to tell because I can't zoom in on the graphic. Do you have their addresses and is that how you mapped it?

I can't recall where I found the addresses but I do remember that I was not certain if they were up to date.

We don't need to map the exact location for now but a close general area would be helpful.

See if the attached is more clear for you to read.

Did you see the map I attached? It's a few posts back. It has CW & WH's homes marked. They're definitely closer than this.

I usually participate in the cases that get national news attention and have thousands of people here sleuthing at once and these types of things are usually found before I get to the point of "needing" them to get an idea of what is what.

Have Donnie's cell phone records been made public in the search for Brittney yet? (Since her last phone call may have been to him per WWH herself on facebook.)

Do we know approximate time of his shooting? Even a range of what time it actually occurred would be helpful to get a better perspective.

How can we get a copy of the police reports from when they responded to the suicide call? Can we get his autopsy report? How?

On AH's (baby P's daddy) facebook it mentioned that he totally regrets not answering the phone the time that she needed him the most. Did Brittney try to get a hold of AH on 5/31-6/1? What day/time did she call/text him?

Zeaux ~ Has the family (the part of the family that is trying to find Brittney) made any good contacts with anyone in local media? Have they considered, or would they consider contacting a local reporter that they like/trust to get some articles written? The media is also a GREAT source to have in order to get the reports and things that should be available to the public and that could be useful to help figure out what really happened that day and it could lead to Brittney.

WH's wife, BW's step-mom is SSH.

I think everything else is correct. The sister, SW, has not really played a part in this yet.

K... thanks... I will correct & repost. I could have sworn I saw her (SW) commenting on posts & I think her profile photo is BW's flyer.

I'm sure there is a good reason why all these peeps are still FB friends (to keep tabs on activity) but my first inclination would be UNFRIEND, UNFRIEND, DELETE, DELETE! just sayin'... emotions and all get the best of me sometimes.

I got your mom & dad location map and will post the revision with the player's initial map.

Nothing on the panties and washcloth. I haven't heard that anywhere but here.

Just so you know where the info came from...

http://www2.wkrg.com/news/2012/jun/13/s-ar-3967700/

In this particular search a couple of items of interest that are marked with a red ribbon. A pair of women's underwear laying on the ground, rain soaked and then just a few feet away, behind a mound another unexplained item. A bath cloth that just seems out of place.

I was thinking about this as well. Suicide is something that is usually planned out. So, if DH planned on committing suicide, why wouldn't he tell BW not to come? It seems odd that he would want her there for his suicide. Unless of course he needed to dispose of her first, or if maybe it wasn't a suicide and they were both disposed of. I keep saying it, but this story is really bizarre.

Suicides are often done to have the effect of hurting a person that they blame for their unhappiness. Like a person will kill themselves in front of their wife to show her how much she hurt them. Likewise people that are suicidal often try kill that person too. So maybe he wanted to kill BW before he killed himself. Maybe he blamed her for his problems?

 

[daisy7]

I created this last week (I think)...

Z - could you please take a look at it and see if I have the general area's correct - especially for her mom & dad's home?

Are there any other locations that need to be added or corrected?

Thanks!

TY!! Can you put it on a Google maps, so I can zoom around? I would do it myself, but I am horrible at doing maps. I live not too many miles from AL, but am most familiar with Fairhope, Orange Beach and the Flora-Bama

Well, I know 3 people who committed suicide. They all did it alone and not one left a note (according to LE notes are actually not that common). The only one who was not technically alone did in the car at a casino. He left his friend in the casino and just went down to the car and shot himself. This was not his closest friend and he did blame his wife for most of his problems, but he did not do it for her to find. Fortunately, no one of them tried to take anyone else with them.

 

[bjr1977]

I know a lot of people do commit murder/suicide, but do many of them hide the bodies? I was thinking they usually did not bother since they were killing themselves as well.

I created it in Google Earth... 'm not sure if you are asking me to create zoomed in & out photo attachments or permanently pin the locations to the Google Earth server.

Let me know and your wish is my command.

No, DH's cell phone records have not been made public. LE is working on his cell phone activity.

My understanding is his shooting was late morning. But I can't remember where I got that info, so consider that unconfirmed.

I don't have a clue how to get those records--that's one of the reasons I came here is I have no experience with this personally nor do any of the family trying to find BW.

I'm not sure when BW last contacted AH. I know they had been seeing each other again but had broken up again shortly before her disappearance.

I don't know that they have anyone in particular in the media. They're talking about doing something with the media, but I don't think it's definite.

Ah, good ole FloraBama! I don't frequent that place near as often as I used to, but after this crazy week it sure does sound nice!

DH died days later in the hospital. I don't know that WWH's story about who stayed where has been confirmed. People are doubting her chain of events.

With good reason, IMO. I had a hinky feeling when I read her facebook posts prior to her deleting some of them. They make more sense in hindsight, knowing what he was being investigated for.

The thought that DH told WWH something about what happened to BW prior to shooting himself, has also crossed my mind. It would make sense of WWH's strange behavior, MOO.

I have a question though, sorry if this has been asked already Z. Where had DH been living during the four month period of the investigation? I wouldn't think he would be allowed to stay in the same home as the victim?

Aaaaaah haven't been there in several years but a nice cold one does sound good right about now.

 

[C.Hound]

I don't know what really happened because it's unlikely that WWH has told the whole truth.

All I know for sure is that, in general, DH was staying at a friend's house in the Styx River area because he was not allowed to be at home where his child(ren) were because of the investigation into allegations of child molestation. Because the friend was not at the home, DH was alone at the time he shot himself.

He shot himself in his vehicle. WWH had reportedly spoken to him on the phone and was concerned because of his comments.

This is very difficult to explain because, to my knowledge, there's not an investigation into what happened to DH, so it's just WWH's version of events, and it's pretty well established that she hasn't been forthcoming with the truth.

(bbm)

Trying to get the time line straight....

DH shot himself at/near the Styx River house and not the Fairhope home where WWH lives? For some reason I thought WWH had dropped him off at the Fairhope residence.

 

[SeeingForThe1stTime]

I'm sorry if this was covered (every time I look back and try to find the answer I end up confusing myself and getting off track) but is do we know when AH took custody of P? Was there a custody hearing or did BW willingly release full custody? I'm trying to work out if it might be possible that BW intentionally worked out the custody of her daughter because she knew that all hell was about to break loose and wanted to ensure P's safety either while she was gone or in the event she never made it back - I'm sure she wouldn't have wanted her daughter to grow up in the same hell she did and possible the idea of that is what prompted this all to happen.

Also, from what I can work out there isn't any searches planned as of now, but a few pages back I read where the low public interest was being discussed and I wanted to just say from a local perspective that when BW was first mentioned in the news it was reported sounding very non-urgent, and I sort of feel like the low response has nothing to do with anything other than how it has been portrayed in the media. I have been talking to to people around me in the last few days though and that seems to be changing and like myself and my husband people are becoming aware and now asking about and wanting to participate in helping to search. I hope they will make a big media push after these arrests because now is the time I think.

That had been my understanding as well.
