Noting:Looks like another arrest was made today - the mother of Echo Butler:
"A third arrest in the investigation of the Snyder girls missing, found buried on property near Williamsport"
echo's mom was arrested, so.The only way Echo Butler parent(s) would permit the burial of the girls on their property is if Echo was involved in the deaths, IMO. If 20-21yr old Echo said “meet my new girlfriend. Can we bury a child here?” I’d imagine the parent(s) would call LE. But if Echo’s parent(s) knew there was a chance they’d lose Echo, well…I don’t condone it, of course, but I can appreciate it. JMO.
(I’m leaving out the possibility that Echo’s parent killed them).
Thank you for the link. It's horrifying to think that not just one person knew about this, but THREE. And one of these monsters gave birth to those two little girls. It's just so hard for me to comprehend - I don't know how they can live with themselves!Woman admits to police: She knew girls were buried in backyard... Not surprised, but still awful.
I am surprised that the little 7 year old boy is still alive, not toilet trained . What on earth did the girls do to warrent being killed? MOO

'Failure to appear': PFAs, missed visitations in history of Snyder parents | Crime Reports | northcentralpa.com
“I’m still just lost on everything, I don’t want to believe it,” Joshua Snyder told WNEP in an interview about the discovery of his daughters' remains that aired November 9. “I just want to get answers and find out exactly what happened all these years. What led up to everything.”

Joshua Snyder was tangled in a Protection from Abuse order (PFA) with Marie Snyder over a period between May 29, 2015 and Sept. 21, 2021, according to court documents.
He was first evicted from the 653 Livermore Rd. property, and ordered no contact with Marie Snyder, 26, the children’s mother, on May 29.
Snyder did, however, have visitation rights to his three children under the supervision of Lycoming County Children & Youth, initially granted in a June 10, 2015 PFA order that continued through July 1, 2015.
[...]
Joshua Snyder filed a complaint to the court against Marie Snyder regarding her apparent failure to meet at designated times or communicate information about the children.
He cited, "failer [sic] to allow me visitation of [name redacted] 5/14/15-5/16/15 and 5/21/15-5/23/15. Failer [sic] to inform me the 5/25/15 of Hospital visit for Nicole Snyder. Failer [sic] to show up 5/28/15 at Walmart to exchange custody."
[...]
On Sept. 21, 2015, in another PFA hearing, Marie Snyder testified, "Joshua said that if he ever found me, he would use a gun on me. He used to hit me and push me. I'm scared for my life," according to court documents.
At that time, court records indicate that Joshua Snyder "failed to appear" to the hearing, and was denied visitation rights from Sept. 21, 2015 to Sept. 21, 2018.

In what Old Lycoming Township Police Chief Christopher Kriner and Lycoming County DA Ryan Gardner would later call a “travesty of colossal proportions," it seems the girls--after the final PFA was put in place against Joshua Snyder, and after Snyder failed to show to further hearings-- fell through every possible safety net in place to save children from what was their eventual fate.
[...]
Joshua Snyder, who declined further interviews with NorthcentralPa.com, told WNEP he was at a “complete loss” over the situation. “I just thought that the kids were fine,” Joshua Snyder told the news outlet. “That they were with their mother. That they were just avoiding all of us.”
Glad you're following Niner, and happy to be your helper!@PommyMommy - I noticed you have posted the court link, but unfortunately I can't access them. I would like to follow this case - and would like to know if you will be my "helper" in getting court dates?Also - do you know "what time" these preliminary hearings are at on 11/17?
TIA!
Also wondering IF the title of the thread should be changed to the "correct" ages of these two little girls. Where Jasman was actually 4 & Nicole was 6 - ??
Glad you're following Niner, and happy to be your helper!Making note for us both...
