Woman Jailed in Pregnant Woman's Death
Oklahoma Authorities Say Woman Killed Pregnant Acquaintance, Cut Fetus From Her Womb

The Associated Press

HOLDENVILLE, Okla. Dec. 29 — A woman who had convinced her husband she was pregnant and was even thrown a baby shower killed a pregnant acquaintance and cut the fetus from her womb, authorities said Monday.
Effie Goodson, 37, faces two first-degree murder charges and a kidnapping count in the slaying of Carolyn Simpson, 21, who was six months pregnant, and the fetus.

Meaning most likely the profile is a deranged woman who has lost it, and who was close to the victim.

SKIDMORE, Mo. - Authorities have found a healthy newborn girl in Kansas and think it could be the child of slain Bobbi Jo Stinnett.

Nodaway County Sheriff Ben Espey said authorities are awaiting DNA testing to confirm the girl is the child of Stinnett, who was found slain in her northwest Missouri home Thursday afternoon by her own mother.

"It's about as good as we can get, people," Espey said.

Infant Found
Child taken from murdered mother's womb

Authorities say a baby girl who was apparently cut from her mother's womb has been found in good health.

A Missouri sheriff says authorities are awaiting the results of D-N-A testing to confirm that the girl is the child of Bobbi Jo Stinnett.

The baby is in a Kansas hospital.

A multi-state search had been launched for the infant taken from her murdered mother's womb. Twenty-three-year-old Bobbi Jo Stinnett, of Skidmore, Missouri, was killed Thursday afternoon in her eighth month of pregnancy.

Investigators issued an Amber Alert early Friday.

"The doctors who examined Bobbi Jo gave us information indicating we probably would have a live child if we could find it," Nodaway County Sheriff Ben Espey said Friday. "The child would be in danger because of being one month premature."

"Someone was wanting a baby awful bad," he had said earlier.

Ms. Stinnett's mother found her body Thursday afternoon. The 23-year-old woman had apparently been strangled.

There were no visible signs of struggle and no indication of forced entry into Stinnett's home in this small community of 500 in the northwest corner of Missouri, the sheriff said.

"We know she was alive in the afternoon, within an hour of being found," Espey said.

Espey said investigators were looking for a car that had been reported seen in the driveway at the Stinnett home, a red two-door Honda hatchback from the late 1980s or early 1990s. Officers in neighboring Atchison County saw a car that appeared to match that description early Friday and began chasing it, but lost sight of it after its lights were turned off, he said.

People are broken.

You watch too many CSI and FBI shows. Leave the profiling to the people who are on the case.

Espey told CNN's Wolf Blitzer: "If the female offender of these two possibly lost a child to a miscarriage, that might be a motive. I don't think she was going to take this child to try to sell it or move it. I think she was probably going to take it because she had lost one through a miscarriage at about six months."

I never click on links that say Missouri Fetus.

Killings of pregnant women are more common than many people realize, The Washington Post reported in Sunday's editions after a yearlong examination of death records.

Using state data and other sources, the newspaper documents the killings of 1,367 pregnant women and new mothers since 1990. It said there were undoubtedly more deaths, and that 13 states said they had no way of knowing how many such deaths occurred.

The Post said several statewide studies have found pregnant women more likely to die of homicide than of any natural cause, and that the deaths cut across racial and ethnic groups.

Sounds like overactive hormones were heavily involved here. Nothing too unusual, really. The brain gets wacky when lots of hormones get thrown around it. Fortunately, bubbling crock pots of denied maternal instinct usually have better outlets than this.

Glad to child seemed to have escaped physically unscathed (according to the article). I've got to wonder how the kid would take the news of his or her birth when they're old enough to understand.   Hmm, no, come to think of it a dramatization isn't particularly necessary.

Some deconstruction (http://slate.msn.com/id/2111254/) of the Post story on rampant killing of pregnant women.

I seriously want to know what the fuck you would consider unusual if you think killing a pregnant woman and cutting the fetus from her womb is "nothing too unusual".

How do you not fall down more?

Fortunately even in your messed up country this is a pretty unusual occurence - in the number you spout without research is included every killing in which the victim just happened to be preggers - sad, but not a rampant crimewave targetting the pregnant or any such nonsense.

COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) - Next summer, it will be legal to plunge into some Missouri rivers and grab catfish by hand - a type of fishing that is not for the faint of heart.

Known variously as noodling or hogging, handfishing has long been a misdemeanor punishable by fines, because state officials fear it depletes breeding-age catfish. It can also be dangerous: Noodlers hold their breath for long periods under water and sometimes come up with fistfuls of agitated snakes or snapping turtles instead of fish.

That does not discourage enthusiasts, who insist there is great sportsmanship in fishing with your bare hands.

Noodling is an ancient fishing method in which the fisherman wiggles his or her hand underwater near a bed of fish in hopes that a catfish will bite or, even better, swallow his hand. The fisherman then pulls the catch, which can weigh up to 250 pounds, out of the water.

God forbid they not get their food from the supermarket like the rest of you overfed cows.

Frankly, I have a hard time keeping your affectations straight these days between the hard core Hobbesian and champion of the toothless. Maybe you do too.

completely disengenuous sympathy

I can't remember I time I didn't just say "You're a dick, fuck you, die" in fairly direct language.

Calling people a dick is what I do.

if bored.

Took you around 6 posts

Your parents must be so proud.

Well, at least it's better than Geld and DV.

Here I thought Boog and Abagadro were really more prone t chosing a side in an existing argument, thereby having a numerical advantage.

based on nothing but the fantasyland in your head.

I suppose I could say something here to refute your belief that I'm living in a land of visionary ideals, instead one of easy conservatism...

Because you have this entire system of word associations in your head that have no relation to what everyone else is dealing with.

And not caring for popularity is only a statement of any worth when you actual have a chance to be popular.

Can I interrupt the Boog show long enough to ask what the fuck is wrong with a fishing pole?

Well, that would explain why some of you are excellent at missing my point. Yet, when it comes to misinterpretation, fault does not always belong on the shoulders of the writer....

......

Knowing you, you will now again completely forget what you are saying and attempt to make an entirely different point. If you're caught at it, you will accuse the finder of misinterpretation. It's become your style of message-board martial artistry. Float like an ungrounded idea, sting like kick to the groin during a chess match.

See, the point of contention in this case is that I say "Fantasyland" and you then extrapulate on that one word and go into entire realms of detail I never mentioned anywhere ever.

An interesting statement that breaks down a bit under further scrutiny.
