Uh....look, if you're not following the FB article comment trail back to siblings of those in the article, you're really missing out.....someone just posted one of the most remarkable FB posts I've ever seen.

These face book comments o_Oo_Oo_O

What a bunch of .. people.. I guess?

Ummm, that was just difficult to read. Literally. And remarkable, for sure. My heart aches for every child in that family. I hope this woman and her children are safe.

Remarkable indeed. Idk if its occurred to anyone but it occurred to me. Sounds like she is probably bruised and battered. If she goes home with marks on her body LE will know the neighbor's story was accurate. He knows this and so does she. I just hope he isnt manipulating her with that. Domestic Violence is real and I hope this is her last time out with him. Shes got to be exausted because the bad has finally outweighed his good it sounds like to me all IMOO. Idk if this is allowed but felonious assault sounds like its pretty bad to me. IMO

They keep talking about an investigation. But they don't say WHAT investigation. Not sure if it's thus case.

Oh no! :(
That is about 15 miles from Middletown (I'm not sure where Barbara's home is located):

It looks like there is a park surrounded by trees near that street:

It does not look very heavily wooded. Streetview at the end Franklin St: Google Maps

They heard screaming coming from the woods and did not call LE.

I am always amazed at how people turn a blind eye to things like this.

“Investigators are releasing few details about the circumstances surrounding the death. Detectives said it is unclear if the body is a man or woman's.

The coroner was on scene, and an autopsy is scheduled for Thursday, according to police.”

Wow, how is he even allowed to be around those children and why is he not locked up already. Scary stuff. I am clinging on to the hope that I have seen some more positive posts on FB by friends and family that suggest the kids are ok and hopefully Barbara too. Nothing official of course.

If it is her, where are those 4 children?

Right...

We’ve seen this before a lot, body found and turns out to be unrelated.

Whatever the case that is someone in those woods...

screaming and a foul odor (week?) need to check and see when she went missing. it's somebody's daughter/wife etc. how awful...

July 12 is her missing date - oh dear...

Wow, these two families have a lot of drama between them. I hope everyone is found safe.

I don't know which side is telling the truth here, but photos of the police report and CR's brother in the hospital are worth more than a thousand words IMO:

Family worried Middletown woman may have been abducted by estranged husband

Plus, the reporter was reporting info from LE about there being a warrant out for felonious assault. This is a dangerous man with a potentially deadly weapon (his vehicle). If he will run down his own brother (twice) over an verbal argument, then no one in his path is safe right now. If anyone is harboring him/them, I hope the harborers get arrested as well. If anyone has seen Barbara and/or her babies they should do the right thing and call police right away. MOO.
I still don't find any reports of an arrest - I will check jail records directly today

So...neighbors saw her and the kids being flung in the car around July 12? CR threatened to kill her? CR ran over his brother twice (on the same day?) CR hasn't been seen since, but threatened suicide?

This is a powerful and very sad story. It needs way more attention. Even if the outcome is tragic (and it looks that way right now), these stories need to be heard and told. I'm not sure about Good Samaritan laws, personally, but all of us (and especially police departments) need to urge neighbors to report domestic violence.

I think people justifiably fear repercussions of calling and are not confident their calls will be kept anonymous.

So is the estranged husband missing too? Haven't heard anything about him being questioned.

He is missing, the police are looking for him for running his brother over twice with his car.
