Omg! I am in disbelief! So so happy! Have goosebumps! That is hrs away from Salida i think. At work but will catch up tonight.

Hi @NoSI Can you believe it?
You did such great work for us going the hearings.

I hope you will be reporting back to us from Barry’s trial!!

12th-Judicial District, DA Anne Kelly.

Anne Kelly is a badass. I know her personally from my domestic violence work. She was previously a senior prosecutor in Boulder County with a solid record. I am a hardcore Dem and she's an R and I donated to her reelection campaign. Yes, in these divided times. She has excellent domestic violence experience and is just as intelligent, logical, and grounded as can be. And she has a passion for victims.

@Lore Listener Good to read positive comments about this prosecutor from someone who knows her from DV work. TYVM for sharing.

Some hard data from office website, on the tab for
"Data Dashboard. System Level Metrics and Indicators"
"Each one of these sections summarizes data about different parts of the prosecution process."
Includes, among other categories: Felony Referrals, Charging & Filing, Sentencing. Staffing and Caseloads.

If her office ends up prosecuting, I imagine "Staffing & Caseload" data may change. imo

I wonder, what does DA Linda S. think now?

An announcement forthcoming? Or have I missed it?

Remember me, kemug the zoo keeper? All our animals (bobcats, elks, red herrings, etc) are planning a huge party to celebrate this news!

Did we have a cooked goose?

BM‘s Goose. Is. Cooked.

It is comforting to know she was at least buried and not dismembered or worse.

Hi @steeltowngirl! I am still in disbelief... What is the chance of this? Unrelated search in such a vast area? Blows my mind! But so thankful! I hope someone is being watched very closely...

Oh, you know i will. I will be there as much as i can. I may be able to drive up to Salida this weekend... Can't promise yet, but working on it.

Hit the news here in Australia.
Guess BM will not try to escape here!!!

I vote for a grand jury indictment.

I hope one has already been empaneled!

 

[JosieMae]

What a sad, sad thing. Suzanne deserved so much better.

Welp, BM, so much for bragging about hiding a body so it can never be found. Hope you're feeling the cold fear you deserve.

BTW, do we know how she was found? A tip?

I imagine it was very hurtful for Suzanne, to lose her life as she did.

 

[Bbgiraffe]

So happy they found her!

Bye bye, Barry.

Yes! I hope he is being surveilled.

 

[Hatch]

Wow I just heard. 3 years in a field. OMG if he goofed up and left something.

Yes , like a tool with his initials on it. Tool ID is a common practice for contractors with employees.

 

[Love Never Fails]

I think he’s confident he won’t be successfully prosecuted. I mean the giant balls he had to sue….

A defense takes money. He already spent a huge sum the first time around.

 

[crhedBngr]

Absolutely wonderful news!!!

So glad she is found--along with the rest of You!!

JMVHO.

Actually I think it was more subversive than this. She may have had a black eye (he says he was blocking her and it was accidental), he may have choked her (you know, to calm her.... as one does) but I think the bulk of his DV was the kind that doesn't leave marks and can take decades to identify. Is one thing if Suzanne adored Barry (at a point), for seeing her through her first round of cancer and for giving her her miracle babies; it's another thing entirely if he told her she was indebted to him....using what she valued against her.

By 2020, Suzanne knew that, whatever she did, therb'd be consequences, and not good ones from Barry -- because he was predictably unpredictable. There'd be a price to pay, just what would it be? Cut her off financially. Cut off her health coverage. Hurt himself. Use the girls.

IMO those were her biggest fears -- until something broke that last week. She must have realized then there may be no limit to what he might do.

I'm still catching up with this case, but he definitely used his daughters, religion, and her health against her. He also manipulated the financial situation. He borrowed from her, yet made her feel like "she was indebted to him". I have lots of questions regarding their finances. Was she aware of her own financial situation, or was he concerned she would find out something if she filed for separation/divorce? And, how much did she inherit from the two individuals that left money to her? He was all about the money and his appearance IMO.

I am so relieved that Suzanne has been found, so she can be laid to rest. She deserves that dignity. I know it may be a while before that can happen, though. I just hope LE can find a cause of death.
