They need to check her emails and cell phone records pronto - there is no indication in her webpages that she was pregnant, or any personal information beyond that about her puppies (rat terriers). Whoever it was who killed her and kidnapped her baby, they had this planned. You don't just perform an maneuver like that without having thought about it first...

I am praying for this little baby - there must be someone who will pray with me.

How very tragic, my prayers go out to the family and for the baby.

I'm just curious, why, oh why, is it that Police are seeking a fetus taken from it's mother's body? Surely at 8 months, whether or not he/she survived the crude c-section (what kind of animal does this??), he/she is a baby, a person.

"Skidmore was famous a few years ago for a bully who met an untimely end."

You're correct. Skidmore is about 50 miles from where I live. It's very small (a few hundred people) - hard to imagine something like this happening around here. Sounds like a nice family, though, and I don't think they suspect the husband at this time.

It's difficult to believe that there are people out there who are this evil.

But there must be.

Your responsible comment is appreciated. I checked an AOL chat room on this topic - the comments were disgusting....and sadly some Freepers were no better.

Regarding her and her husband's website - isn't it good practice not to give out personal details? I expect they limited information to the puppies they were selling.

Again, thanks for your thoughtful insight.

It is evil. May God watch over this poor little baby. Without proper medical care she may not survive.

I've never encountered anyone expecting a baby who posted a copy of their ultrasound and said "here's a picture of my fetus."

Did they know it was a girl baby? I had not seen or heard that.

Police Think Baby Survived Being Cut From Womb Of Slain Mother

Amber Alert Issued For Missing Female Baby

POSTED: 7:05 am EST December 17, 2004
UPDATED: 1:09 pm EST December 17, 2004

SKIDMORE, Mo. -- Authorities looking for an infant cut from the womb of its mother expanded their search outside of Missouri on Friday as they maintained hope the baby might still be alive.

The search for the baby started after a 23-year-old woman who was eight months pregnant was killed Thursday and the fetus was taken from her body, authorities said.

Sheriff's deputies were investigating the afternoon killing of Bobbie Jo Stinnett and they were searching for the baby, who they believe could have survived.

"The doctors who examined Bobbie 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," Espey said earlier.

The sheriff issued an Amber Alert for the missing baby. Police are searching for a white, female baby. The report also suggested that things to look for in the case included "bloody clothing or towels, possible health issues with the fetus and a freshly cut umbilical cord."

This is true...the bully episode occurred around mid-70s and the guy's death could never be tied to any local...although there were at least 30 people who wanted to kill him, and they admitted so on TV. People in this town...don't fear very much. I'd be guessing that this is someone within 20 miles of the town, and probably lives out in the woods a bit. My guess is that they aren't very clear-headed (this would cut out 99 percent of the local population).

Remember the USAF Troops wife that had her baby taken in the same manner up in Tijeras Canyon in 86-87 ??. The lady that did it was also a USAF spouse and had stalked this lady an made friends with her and pretended to be pregnant also and even sat at the OBgyn clinic at the base hospital at KAFB. My Wife was OSI at the time and the murderer took the lady up in the canyon down a dry river bed and cut the baby from the mother with a Volkswagon ignition key. The lady then went down to the ford dealer at lomas and wyoming ? ...and tried to tell em she just had a baby. Of course the doctors wanted to examin her, the real pregant lady was missing and ............

Sad part was the lady in the dry river bed woke up from her head injury, tried to walk and crawl to the S14 highway and bled to death before she got to help.

Horrific........

If such was repeated here I suspect such trash took this life as they wanted the child. Suggested points to look at are those who knew the lady at a gym or the doctors office etc where the murder victim was a regular. Someone she knew or didn't fear as a stranger IMO if the door wasn't kicked in etc etc .......

this sounds like the guy who got her pregnant did it and took the "evidence (DNA)"

Maybe it's just me, but that wouldn't have occurred to me in a million years.

I think it's more likely that some married wanted there to be no proof that he had an affair with this lady so he killed her and eliminated the DNA evidence.

You two are watchin waaaaay too much TV.

Skidmore was famous a few years ago for a bully who met an untimely end.

Makes me believe that the murderer/kidnapper(s) are not familiar with the local history. The book "In Broad Daylight" details the life, times, and violent demise of Ken McElroy, and is a good, quick read.
