Is anyone following the story of the missing mother of 3?

Anonymous
Massachusetts cops 'find blood, a hatchet, hack saw, rug and used cleaning products from basement belonging to missing mom-of-three and her husband at compactor site near his mother's home'


Latest Daily Mail headline on the case, same as what was shared on the noon news here in eastern Massachusetts. Finding those things in the mother’s dumpster is a bit of a smoking gun, all they need now is to dna test the biological material to verify it was hers.

Poor kids.

He already violated his parole, he can be held in custody for that alone.


Yes! One thing that all these perps have in common - they sure do think they are ABOVE the LAW!!

I wonder if his Mom was in on this? He was supposed to be close to her and she helped him financially in the past.


That is what I am thinking. Mom is supplying the money (what happened to the $10m from the Beacon St. sale of mom's house??) - and they were currently renting. Trying not to speculate here, trying to just derive from facts that are public.


I don't understand why she was living in an apartment.

I was thinking the same thing. I can see why this would be a big story in Boston but not a national story. I wish more attention were given to the missing/murdered Native American women. Guess they're just not as telegenic or sympathy-worthy.

If you think it is, then maybe you should be spreading the word, instead of disparaging and judging others.

People follow what they identify with - it is not rocket science.

Stop showing up on each of these threads with the same old tired trope - do something about it - spread the word in other ways, to other boards/sources! Your coming here and trying to disparge and judge the people who read this site is only hurting your message.


You're right. It's not rocket science. It's racism. It's a shame that you, and others like you, only see the tragedies/issues of those you identify with. It's a shame you can't find anything about Native women to identify with - if nothing else, they are human.


I mean honestly it is actually more like human nature. When presented with two cases of women being abducted most people will feel the same way. But when you have news media run by predominantly white people, then when an attractive white woman goes missing, most of the news media relates to her, literally relates to her (I TOO am a middle aged white mom who is attractive with children, this could happen to ME), and so it gets obsessed over. I don't think being affected by something happening to someone very similar to you is racism, I think that is just how human brains work.

The fact that WOC are less represented NATIONALLY and broadly has to do with systemic racism which is what happens when this phenomenon takes place in hiring. People naturally hire people who seem like them for the same reasons. And when this phenomenon repeats then you have no representation in the media and then no one relates with the WOC so they are promoted less.

IMO attributing this to individualized racist thoughts really hampers the ability to solve the problem because it really isn't about people racistly not caring about WOC, it is about 100 tiny little decisions along the way that come from very subtle bias that changes the direction of the conversation. Its about every rock that makes a river bend, not the last rock that has no idea why the river chose it.

I think PP was saying that if you want to change it you should try posting about missing WOC, elevate their voices so people hear them. Because it is the rare person that will go LOOKING for sad stories, most people just react to what the media apparatus puts in front of us.


It's distressing that you don't recognize how you consume and amplify the end product of racism. Even if you, yourself, aren't racist, by amplifying and exclaiming about this story - to the neglect of other stories - you, and others like you, are supporting and reinforcing the decisions of a racist system.

You and PPs are telling me that and the other posters that we should be doing more about it. Yet, while acknowledging the systemic racism, you refuse to be held accountable for your part it in. smh

I'm done.


I didn't see this post until today. I have done nothing at all about this story besides write the above. I was just observing, and I don't promote any stories like this because honestly they are hard for me to think about, no matter what the ethnicities involved.

I read the children are in state custody, not with family or friends. How very terrifying for them.

Other PP here. I still don't understand why you are projecting your anger on to DCUM readers. I think PP expounded on the issue in a rational and honest manner.

And since you brought it up, what about white people who are fired or not hired because the company needs to check their boxes? NVM, I know how you feel. What if that person is first generation - their family pretty much just arrived to America, with little or nothing? They don't deserve a job? A job that they like, and are good at, because DEI?

There are two sides. Don't assume that white people are all the same, and I won't assume all black women have a chip on their shoulder and are taught hate - even though that is what you are telling us.

White people didn't tell OJ to leave his first (African American) wife and marry Nicole, so you could cheer when he killed her.

What about your kid that gets into the coveted college, on a fraction of the required GPA for white kids? And with a full scholarship?

I could go on.

Point is, white women represent hate to you - nothing more, nothing less. You need to fight your own demons - because as long as you tell white women how much you hate them - they have no reason to take up for you.

Why are certain things okay for YOU to bring up, but not white women? White women know how you feel. You make it clear with every one of your hateful posts.

I don't understand how he was with her. He just looks like a dud, and then he has a criminal record. Loser. And she looks very pretty, had a job, etc. Doesn't compute. Surely she could have done better. Were they heading toward a breakup?

And why is this guy so stupid when it comes to committing a crime! Has he done anything right? He uses his computer for incriminating searches. He has all the tools for disposing of the body in the house/dumpster. He buys $450 worth of cleaning supplies???? I mean, good grief.... the cops hardly have to do anything here. This guy is a loser among losers!

Other PP here. Racism goes both ways - like it or not. If I am not racist, I am not going to tell someone I am, or apologize (what do you call that, white guilt?) for something I did not do. Treat people the way YOU expect to be treated.

What’s more significant about drop cloths than a bloody knife or a mop?


What normal family owns those? I mean, the workmen bring those with them when doing their work, but they always clean up once they have completed the job.


Clearly, NORMAL families never do their own home improvement projects.


lol right? I’ve bought drop clothes to do big painting projects and while I don’t own a mop, it’s obviously a normal thing to have at home. This is definitely a totality situation but a drop cloth is not a smoking gun.


It's the timing of the purchases, as well as the fact he lied to investigators about his whereabouts when he was making them.

I own several drop cloths, but I bought them along with a few gallons of paint, a new roller cover, and some painter's tape. This was just before I took a few days off work to paint my living room, not a few days after my spouse went missing. My internet searches the day before were about whether I needed to use primer if I'm covering a lighter paint color with a darker one. And I didn't tell police officers I was getting ice cream for my kid when I was really at Home Depot.


Oh for sure, I just thought it was funny that PP said "Drop cloths. BOOM. He did it." Off all the evidence why on earth would drop cloths be the thing that stands out most?
