Found Deceased MI - Rebecca Park, 22, approx 38 wks pregnant, last seen entering vehicle, phone found - Wexford County - Nov 2025

At home with an ankle monitor… like she thinks this is equivalent to a drug or shoplifting charge.

I don’t think she grasps she’s going to be stuffed away for the rest of her life, likely not even allowed to spend time in genpop.

Near the end of this 5 minute hearing, Courtney addresses the judge directly, and even after being told that she's not to discuss the particulars of the case, she appears to suggest that she's willing cut a deal with prosecutors so that she can carry out her "jail sentence" at home. LOL

I mean it's ridiculous on account of it happening during an re-arraignment hearing to correct a misspelling, and even more ridiculous that she thinks she is EVER going to walk free after what she's done.

This shows her callousness, imo, to be accused of heinous crimes and then offer to be cooperative with the prosecution.

Sadly, he is deceased, per the prosecutor. They may possibly have found evidence or remains.

Rebecca Park, 22, was in the final days of her pregnancy when she was last seen Nov. 3. The baby had been cut out of her when her remains were discovered last week, prosecutor Johanna Carey said in court.

“This is, frankly, evil personified,” Carey said.

[...]
“Mr. Bartholomew brought Rebecca to their home, forced her into another vehicle and took her into the woods where they stabbed her, forced her to lie on the ground while they cut her baby out, ultimately caused her death and the death of the baby,” Carey said.

‘Evil’: Mom, stepfather charged with murder in death of pregnant woman, her unborn child

Authorities charged a woman and her husband with murder Tuesday in the death of her pregnant biological daughter.

I was hoping they drugged RP first and perhaps the baby died from that. But, no such mercy for either victim.

Adoptive mom of pregnant Wexford victim tried to protect her, knew suspect was 'dangerous'

Stephanie Park said she spent years trying to shield her adopted daughter from her biological mother, who is accused of killing the 22-year-old pregnant Wexford County woman while attempting to

From the link:

Stephanie Park said she fostered Rebecca Park, Kimberly Park and their brother after the state removed them from their biological mother's care.

"They were pulled out of the home by (Child Protective Services), and I think CPS did the right thing," Park said. "I raised the three kids until (their parents') parental rights were terminated, and then we adopted them."

I'm counting living (or at least recently living) offspring here after seeing CB's FB comment that she became a mother at 13.
This seems to indicate CB has at least 4 children:
RP, was aged 22
KP, younger than RP
"their brother" fostered and raised by the Parks, age unknown so far
the 14-year-old son who lives with her

one of her FB accounts also mentions a dead baby referred to as "Angel."

I wonder if there are more.

So is this brother different from the one currently in Cortney's custody?

And once again...this woman who has evidently never cared about being a mom to at least three of her previous children is suddenly wanting a baby when she's middle aged. Come on. MOO.

I am assuming they are two different sons - one adopted by the Parks family and the other who was with bio-mom.

If butchering your daughter and unborn grandson to death don't call for LWOP, I don't know what crime does.

What struck me most in that hearing is how detached from reality she still seems. Even after hearing the charges laid out, she’s behaving as if there’s a scenario where she negotiates her way out of this. It’s almost chilling to watch someone speak so casually in the face of something this horrific.


At the same time, her lack of understanding or remorse doesn’t make the crime any less deliberate. The details coming out paint a picture of planning, opportunity, and intention — not a moment of impulsive violence.


If this case isn’t LWOP, it’s hard to imagine what would qualify.


JMO.

 

[lightofmine99]

Oh to be a fly on the wall during questioning. I would bet real money LEOs have already heard like 5 different stories about where the baby is. MOO.

That’s probably the clearest view of what goes on in Cortney’s brain and her utter lack of thought processes.

I sometimes watch recordings on YouTube of LE interviews with killers and it’s shocking how many of them think they’ll be going home - even those who admit to murder. Inability to read the room in its most extreme!

JMO Cortney and friends likely struggle to comprehend simple concepts even without meth. And with meth, well, we see exactly what happens. Cripes.

Yes, the adopted Parks brother is different from the minor that was in CB's custody. Why she had custody of the minor? Beyond me...

This is my first post, but I've been a lurker for a while now. This tragedy happened literally an hour from me, and I can't even describe how I feel. I've followed this for weeks and had such tremendous hope that RB and baby would be found alive and well. My heart hurts for their *real* family and friends.

Welcome to Websleuths. We've all had a case that brought us here, but it's hard when it's one close to home. Glad you joined in.

Are the people (in this case) related, perhaps?

I wonder if once again the Parks step up?

It's my understanding the minor child living with CB is a half-brother to RP, KP, and the Brother Park that were adopted by the Parks. The minor is supposedly staying with other relatives.

Could be blood evidence, baby wpuldd have different DNA than Rebecca, and they can tell when blood loss would be catastrophic

That would make sense, since I highly doubt it occurred to CB or BB to make any attempt to clamp the umbilical cord before cutting it

 

[EllaMae]

I think there is evidence with RP that the baby didn't survive outside the mother's body, but I don't have the medical knowledge to know what that could be. I don't think that communication, if that exists, without physical evidence would be enough to charge them with causing miscarriage/stillbirth, but idk.

jmo

They may have severely cut the baby when they were cutting open RP's abdomen. Or the baby may have died in utero due to the fact that they were torturing his mother.
