Miranda Barbour: Two men escaped with lives

MUNCY — Miranda Barbour says two other men from the area responded to her Craigslist ad before murder victim Troy LaFerrara, of Port Trevorton, but they dodged death when they failed to appear for her promise of female companionship.

“I tried it a few times but it never worked out,” Mrs. Barbour recounted in her second jailhouse interview in six weeks. “I knew we were going to do this since the day we met, and we tried, but the others just didn’t show up.”

Mrs. Barbour, 19, and her husband, Elytte Barbour, 22, are charged in the Nov. 11 stabbing and strangulation death of LaFerrara, 42, in the couple’s car. Police said LaFerrara was lured to his death through a Craisgslist website ad.

Mrs. Barbour claimed in her first jailhouse interview Feb. 14 at the Northumberland County Prison that she committed at least 22 other killings over the past six years in a cross-country murder spree driven by her satanic cult beliefs.

The second jailhouse interview occurred Tuesday at the State Correctional Institution in Muncy, a maximum security women’s prison where she was moved after the sensational details of the first interview drew widespread media attention.

She again repeated her claims of multiple murders and said she has not been questioned by federal authorities about them even though she was prepared to locate where some of them had occurred, from Alaska to Florida and North Carolina.

Something about this woman, Miranda Barbour, reminds me of that show, “Girls” and Hannah Horvath, only she has taken it to the logical conclusion of a bored, narcissistic, self absorbed psycho. Maybe in the next season the plot will catch up to real life.

I’ve bought a couple of things off Craigslist. One was a vintage WWII M-3 1911 holster and a Virginian Dragoon (357 magnum SA revolver) made in the 1970s by Interarms.

Sales were in the parking lot in front of a busy store on a Saturday morning.

She obviously eventually realized that she should stop sending pictures of herself to these guys.

Did you hear about the child that was kidnapped right out of a shopping basket in a busy Walmart store, in the middle of the day, while the mother was less than two feet away?

That kind of stuff doesn’t always work ... :-) ...

What became of that kidnapping? This is the first I heard about it.

As for craiglist, I stick with kijiji for buying anything, and even then it’s public places, and I have backup.

They nabbed him, but it had us really talking about it (here at home) in that even in broad daylight, in a busy store, and with you being right there - someone can still make off with a kid!
