I don't understand why the girls did not come forward. Did he threaten them? Even so, still even more reason to. How did they think they would get away with this? Obviously have never heard of this website lol, or have any idea how digital footprints work. BB's ex-wife had come forward earlier. Posted below. Some abusers just cross that line. And to have looked her in the face to strangle her! The fear that poor girl must have had knowing what he was about to do.

Sincere condolences to her family.
I hope the one who did this will never walk free again.

I don't know why, but they were very active online in the time after she was announced as missing and their arrests. They literally could not keep quiet. IMO

Tippett is accused of witnessing the murder and helping Brandon Barnes get rid of his wife’s body. According to a probable cause affidavit, Tippett failed to tell law enforcement about the murder, and she “did admit to disposing of the victim’s body to obstruct justice of murder by defendant Brandon Barnes.”

Mims “did render assistance” to Brandon Barns “to avoid the consequences of his crime,” the affidavit said, by helping Brandon Barns dispose of Jessica Barnes’ body. She, too, admitted this to investigators, according to the affidavit. A separate affidavit says that in addition to helping Brandon Barnes get rid of Jessica Barnes’ body, Mims “did have multiple opportunities to report the murder to law enforcement and did fail to do so.”

Another really shettee story. No signs of predictable problems before?

 

[truthfinder2019]

IMO a lot, known abuser, with live-in GF with his baby whilst she had lost hers….how can anyone handle such a domestic stituation…?! Unfortunately domestic violence victims rarely act because they are psychologically weak and overwhelmed and sometimes ashamed.

Strange that LE didn't go to him first. That poor woman caught in it.
