AL AL - Brittney Wood, 19, Mobile, 31 May 2012 - # 6

[reedus23]

I do not believe Donnie loved, cared for, and protected Brittney more than he would his own daughter. And, we know how that turned out.

From the beginning I've felt like Brittney was no longer with us, and that feeling has not changed. I believe she was killed, and disposed of by at least 2 of the pervs, possibily 3 of them. I don't think Donnie planned on shooting himself, but did so out of guilt and remorse. He (and others) had at least 48 hours after Brittney was last seen to do what they needed to do before Donnie shot himself.
He knew what was fixing to hit the fan.

Unfortunately, I agree that the odds say Brittney is no longer with us. Just with the depth of craziness in this family, I actually have some sliver of hope, albeit small, that she decided to run. I agree with what you're saying except the bolded portion. I don't think it was guilt and remorse. I think it was more he saw the writing on the wall and didn't want to spend a life time plus ten years in prison.

BBM The sister of the defendant's wife: Mendy is the wife, Wendy would be her sister. She was charged with a misdemeanor of 'child endangerment'.

This needs to be repeated! The victim told either her aunt whose is Brittney's mother or she told her own mother. who has charges pending in this case. I just don't know what to say, I can't stand even thinking these perps and their adult family members (who are'nt incarcerated) are just hanging out this saturday night, maybe just sitting on their computer facebooking or playing mahjong. It's literally maddening that they don't sponataniously combust. Imo of course.

Not an attempt to identify the victim in this case, but to clarify the fact that the victim was not Wendy's daughter.
The article states that the victim is now 17 years old.
Donald had children prior to his marriage to Wendy - that has been confirmed by Zeaux (verified insider).

Sgt.Scott Congleton of the Mobile Police Department, testified at a preliminary hearing in Mobile County District Court that the sexual abuse occurred in 2008 when the girl was 13 years old. Congelton testified that the victim, now 17, did not come forward until the death of her father this summer and a subsequent high-profile search for Wood.
During cross-examination, Congleton testified that the victim confided in the sister of the defendant’s wife but no one else.

I'm pretty certain Brittney knew what was fixing to go down. Family members were aware of the investigation into Donnie, and had known for at least 4 months.

I agree. LE is not actively looking for Brittney - they never have been active in looking for her. IMO, they would not have searched for Derek had they not received tips that he had been seen in the area. I don't think they considered him 'armed n dangerous' - and they thought he would eventually slip up and get caught.
As for Dustin, I think he was in an area he wasn't supposed to be in, or not where he was supposed to be at a certain time, and that is the reason for the monitor alerts. I don't think he has the guts to run away from his family support system.

With regard to the oceanside vacations, I'm certain those were free of charge - the condo is owned by Wendy's best friend forever.

There is no public outcry about any of this that I'm aware of.

when you go back to the first days her family was not even looking it was like someone had to twist their arm to go search.
IMO they all know where she she is! And she is not dead!

I dont think Donnie ever felt guilt or remorse in his sorry life. IF he was sorry for anything, its that he was trapped and about to get jail time with people even meaner than he was.

Im wondering if she might have told Chessie. I dont see the point in telling Wendy.. Im betting the hero already knew Wendy knew. And since she didnt come forward until after Brittney vanished, it would make sense to me that she would go to Chessie.

Despicible Donnie knew death was his only option!
His sins were many. And Unforgivable!

 

[sadnpod]

The only option for a self centered, coward who couldn't face his punishment. Im hoping hes being punished now far worse than any punishment he would have gotten from our justice system.

 

[reedus23]

What about Donnie Jr.? Any word on his next Court date? Him and RSW have kind of laid low since their charges.

 

[sadnpod]

I was wondering the same thing Reedus.

Good point...you could be right. Plus, I just remembered that Wendy's charges are in Baldwin County. The case against Dustin with the rape of Donald's daughter is in Mobile County.

Not sure if Donnie knew, but someone did. MOO

That's a definite possibility! However, I thought she came forward before Brittney was missing because Donnie had already been questioned, prior to Brittney's disappearance.

IMHO: I think she confided in Wendy - very near the time the rape occurred. Wendy was, after all, her stepmother. One would think that if she was raped and confided in an adult, that someone would help them. Not in this family, or so it seems. Sadly, Wendy (if it was her) let this child down too by not reporting it and protecting her. IMO, Wendy didn't say anything because it would destroy her family and her sisters (Mendy) family.

Wendy has been charged with one count of "ENDANGERING WELFARE OF CHILD"; no other sister has been charged with anything.

I hope this child wasn't raped repeatedly by a string of family members and friends. ETA: It appears there are at least 2 victims. :furious:

Donald Holland Sr - Obviously an 'observer' uke: who offed himself rather than facing the judge. [Was under investigation for sex abuse when Brittney went to visit him. His suicide came as he, too, was under investigation for molestation, and he killed himself just half an hour before he was being interviewed by detectives.]

Dustin Kent - Charged with sodomy and sexual abuse in multiple cases. One being a 13yo victim (now 17yo).

So imo, the younger holland jr. & derek wood, are molesting the newest generation of youths in the family, after of course watching and learning from the rest of the uncle/brother/fathers who molested Brittney's generation. It cannot end if this is what they see and are taught as acceptable.
Can I hope there are no males born into this family after holland jr. & derek.?? oh wait then there are the female enablers... I'm sickened that girls in this famliy barely get out of young childhood before the men desend upon her. I pray some of these girls have had or now get the chance to laugh and play. I love seeing kids laugh at their own goofyness.

I don't understand why one of the accused would'nt give up Brittney's whereabouts. To pin it on holland sr. and get their own sentence reduced. Unless there is incriminating evidence that implicates the whole group. Maybe that's how holland sr. is still controlling them. Maybe he alone did whatever to "disappear" Brittney the rest of the group know but don't know where she ended up, but they are afraid what will turn up when Brittney does. ? JMO

Thanks so much for that post Bree!

This article and several others all state that this hero came forth amid the search for Brittney. ( or after she went missing)

SO Brownlee failed to appear? I didnt know that!

Thanks for all the links!

I completely agree....the incriminating evidence which ( to Me) would incriminate the whole group ( beyond if you can imagine on top of sick evil, amoral pedophilia, incest, child rape, and sodomy charges) which seems to be minimized or maybe even disappearing is...."meth- amphetamine " drug manufacturing and dealing- "the milk mall".

Yes, the FTA is from traffic violations from prior years. Apparently, he was a truck driver.

He, too, is accused of raping a 12-year old (maybe the same as Donnie Jr and Derek). Well, I'm assuming (and praying) that there's only one 12-year old. That's sick enough.

It's time to break this cycle of abuse! Disgusting! Disgusting! Disgusting!

If any of these "men" (and I use that term VERY loosely) wanted sex, they could have got that either at home or somewhere from a willing participant.

Why must they prey on these children?

Based on this statement: "The victim, now 17, only came forward earlier this year amid the search for Brittney and her claims were 'credible', Congleton said."

If the then-13-year old victim came forward AFTER Brittney was already missing, there was another victim that Donnie SR was being investigated for possible molestation charges. Maybe the same 12-year old? I still think Wendy's charges come from the victim confiding in her about her dad and uncle's abuse and she did NOTHING! :banghead:

This case gets sicker by the day. The more I read, the more disgusted I become.
