From what I've found, he's a pilot. Easier to remove her from the scope than him from the cockpit. Also, "I had a friend", when someone starts having legal issues, they will remove you from your primary duties. Mostly to accommodate the scheduling of legal meetings but also to minimize accidents from being distracted.
 
I'd be interested to know where her criminal charges were at in the process and what outcome was likely. If I was facing all of those charges I would feel like the world was about to come crashing down on me. I can see how the stress might make someone suicidal.

Just my guess, but my instinct is that Shadow probably was engaging in the stalking behaviours. Just a guess and I may be wrong. My reasons for thinking so are 1) there are numerous charges and there has to be some degree of evidence in order for an arrest to be made, and 2) her online behaviour makes me think that she'd become very fixated on what happened and couldn't move on past her feelings of betrayal.

I hope I'm wrong, I'm just really worried about her state of mind. She'd been through a lot in a few years with the breakdown of her marriage and betrayal, it seems like the army hadn't been especially kind to her, and she'd had the trauma of her service overseas. She was close to her mum but her mum is a long way away. It makes me worry for her emotional state.

From what I know... Charges were filed, court hearings were to start on Sept 6th. She had tons of evidenced, I can't specify but it was substantial and her motivated. I won't say she wasn't stressed out but she had lots of support from family and close friends.
 
I can't help but think - Shadow is due to ETS tomorrow.
 
Have we really learned anything new since they found her car? (besides where the homeless camps are in Nashville)

This case is so frustrating--usually little bits of info trickle out as more time goes on but there is nothing new. :silenced:

Where are you Shadow?!?

huh? What is ETS?

Oh wait I thought about it. Do you mean "exit the service"?

End of time in service. But yeah, same thing. I've thought about her all day. My daughter is just slightly older than Shadow and my son is currently active duty at Fort Campbell so I'm really invested in her disappearance. My heart goes out to her family.
Where are you Shadow?
 
Can anyone with a military background interpret her resume? From what I know about Air Traffic Controllers it is a high stress job and requires skill. She was one smart and tough soldier to do that job. I noticed she went from very "hands-on" field assignments to "handling paperwork". Would this indicate a promotion or is it an indicator that she had burned out as an ATC and they were putting her on "desk duty" for the remainder of her contract? Or could she have requested that assignment? Anyone with any insight?

Also, there seems to be a gap on her resume between August 2014 and August 2015? Could that just be a typo on the date?

I think part of the gap as far her performing actual air traffic controller duties comes from that job being handled mainly by civilians at Ft Campbell. I'm from the area and my husband was also stationed there for a little while, my parents were best friends with a guy that was an air traffic controller there and we would go to a lot of cookouts and such at his house and most if his coworkers were also civilians. Also a lot of times when soldiers are dealing with legal issues they will put them on paperwork duty, happened to my husband while he had some stuff going on and we have known many other people that have suffered the same fate. Basically because there is no way you can be mission ready with ongoing legal issues so they move you from your job to have someone else fill it, either temporarily or permanently, depending on the issues at hand.

(Also I hope I did this right, this is my first post)

:welcome: Glad you joined to discuss Shadow's case (& hopefully many others)!
 
The ex has been arrested....

Wow! Source? When was he arrested? Charges? Can you tell us the city/state?

(BTW, I see this is only your second post. Welcome Brittg! if you haven't been welcomed already.)

Type in his name - ... I don't want to put his name on here, cause it will probably get deleted.

It will show an image of him and direct you to the mcgtn.org site for more info.

Argh, I've forgotten his name! If his arrest had to do with Shadow's case then we can start to discuss him. BUT we can't discuss here until the police or media name him as a suspect. If his charges are too vague (and they probably will be in the system) we may have to wait for the police to release his name as a suspect before we can discuss. Just FYI. Tread carefully until we see it in the news.

Yep, thanks for the tip :) - also, I think you can find his name to one of the linked sites from the beginning of the discussion, unless those have been removed.

Yes, I will find it through her social media posts. I just have too many other cases in my head and I couldn't think of it. Thanks for the links!

It is too vague, though I do find it interesting that it says, "Total Bond Amount: $0," and that he has been in custody since 10/6; this leads me to believe that whatever the charge, it is something serious, and/or LE/prosecutors are making sure that he is not released any time soon. By the way, I still have not been able to find updates on the body that was found by landscapers in Nashville on October 3rd; this would have been three days before the ex-husband was arrested. Could be a total coincidence, though. I do have to say that I am surprised by this turn of events (the ex being arrested, for whatever reason).

Agreed. I have been searching daily for updates on that body found as well. One news site had an update date on October 5th, but there was nothing new added to it. When they found those other bodies in Nashville, they were quick to release info days after. But the one on Charolettes Pike....no updates.
