Info from people who know PF:
“He worked on my horses for a real short time till he punched one in the gut with a rasp and that was about the last time I let him work on my horses,” -MG

'It's a characteristic that was ongoing for years. Anytime he was at a rope and his horse didn't act right, he'd rip on his face, kick him. In the community, we were all at ropings and stuff, but if the horse doesn't do exactly what it's supposed to do you don't just beat them.' -MG

'One time we were at a rodeo in Cripple Creek and he got mad because his horse didn't do good and somebody didn't heel just right to help him get in the money and he got so mad he left out of Cripple Creek Rodeo, flipped his horse trailer with his horse in it and almost killed that horse.
'He got mad, tries to get his vehicle out of there and there's too many cars tightly packed in. Lots of people were there. -MG

'He was in a rage of being mad and angry, because the heeler didn't heel and they lost out the money. It was kind of a sad deal, especially trying to get the horse out that was traumatic for everybody.' -MG

A former girlfriend of PF declined to speak to the press but her partner commented saying that he knew Frazee to be aggressive with horses and dogs but that he did not beat his girlfriends.
“He cheated on her while she was in the hospital, take that for what it’s worth,” the man said of his current partner’s former relationship with Frazee

'Patrick is a horseshoer, I heard once he was thumping on the horse "saying this is how you've got to do it," that horse reared up and kicked him right in the forehead, he got a bunch of stitches and his [then] girlfriend hauled him to the hospital to get stitches.' -High School Classmate of PF

'Oh yeah, he's a recluse for sure. I haven't seen him in 10 years or so.' -High School Classmate of PF

A neighbor heard 'mixed things' about Frazee's alleged rough behavior with animals.
He was quiet and shy. He had his own friends circle and stayed close to his friends,' he said.
'He did come across, "I'm a big tough cowboy." But that's that cowboy way, got be strong.
'That's how he was raised, he raised horses. I think if you're raised country that's normal, if you're raised city it's going to seem harsh. It's not wrong in his eyes. Sometimes there's neglect and over abuse yes, he'd tread the fine line on it I'd say. You've got make a horse submit to what you want to do. You've got to be kind of firm. You shouldn't hit them.' --Former Neighbor HF

Two friends of Patrick defended him and rejected any suggestion he was cruel towards animals:

'He's an old fashioned cowboy. He's just old school, he does things the old way. He shoes horses modern, but he trains horses the way people used to do it, I wouldn't say that he's cruel or not. He's a stand up real good guy. I've just known him for years and he's a great person.'
The friend said he had not met Frazee's fiancée but added: 'I know the day I saw him he was a great dad to the daughter and he's a good guy. He was fine. --Man who saw PF shoe horses in Sept.

'I know him, when we had horses he used to trim our horses hooves. He was a very nice young man, I knew him all growing up, we used to go to the Gymkhana and the rodeos when he was younger. I've known him since 2003 and I never saw him do anything inappropriate or out of order.' -DR, runs the propane store

"I've always considered him to be a gentle soul. Soft spoken and just really down to Earth and practical." “couldn’t imagine him doing anything that would harm anyone.” -Friend, SO

PF helped KB move from WA to CO only months after they met

KB often talked about her boyfriend (PF) at her aviation job in 2016
Baby K was born Oct 2017
They were engaged but did not have a wedding date set

"The relationship has been good, um, they're loving, um it hasn't been ideal, you know given given the economy and things, you know, they had plans that haven't worked out as they would have liked but they've dealt with that and they've made things work regardless." --KB's mom

"I mean they had plans, you know, they were planning to find a place for them to live and so forth and the economy with prices dropping out...Kelsey's fiance has some cattle and stuff and prices were poor and so the money just wasn't available as soon as they had hoped, but they make it work."-- KB's mom

Deceased/Not Found - CO - Kelsey Berreth, 29, Woodland Park, Teller County, 22 Nov 2018 - #36 *ARREST*
 
Rev. Jim Jones comes to mind Pastor Tracy Burleson and several right off came to mind. Candy Montgomery Sunday school teacher axed her friend Betty Gore, IMO religion does make a difference one way or the other if a person is prone to murder.
Assuming she is a barrel racer : note there is a 3 barrel pattern set up in the arena behind the house , wondering if this is her home or her parents .

I love this quote by Voltaire: "Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities."
 
I've been wondering about the custody hearing on Thursday. I know the judge said the little girl will stay with maternal grandparents, but I was wondering if PF's mother or anybody in his family showed up. From what I've read, the child probably spent a good bit of time with her paternal grandmother before KB's death, and you'd think she would want to maintain contact. I'm sure she knows she won't get custody, but I'm wondering if she has asked for visitation. I'm just musing and don't suppose anyone has the answer since the hearing was closed.

I think if members of his family were seen entering or leaving the courthouse they would have been photographed. This has to be a very difficult time for them coping with PF's mess.

Just an FYI — a lot of you have asked, following DA Dan May’s presser yesterday, about documents that are still sealed in the case. @KOAA has filed a motion to unseal those documents. We should hear back next week. #KelseyBerreth #PatrickFrazee #KrystalKenney

Sam Kraemer on Twitter
This refers to the arrest (probable cause) affidavit. It will reveal what evidence police gathered to charge Patrick Frazee with murder. #KelseyBerreth #PatrickFrazee #KrystalKenney @KOAA

Yay!

Say what you want about the media, but this is exactly the type of situation they prove their worth.

From the news reports, my interpretation is that SF was there, possibly with a tall woman wearing a red jacket. My thought is she could have been an attorney for SF. It is going to the pre-trial phase, but custody moves very slowly. I don't see any changes being made to the present arrangement, but permanent legal custody might not be transferred any time soon. IMO
