Her actions and behaviors are hers and hers alone. None of that is his issue. And why would you think that he wouldn’t fight to prove paternity? It was HIS kid who deserves to have his real father in his life. |

| Seriously? Months and months of silence about this case. Nothing from APD? It’s eerie — something especially weird must be in the mix. |

Well, it sounds like no big loss if this is true. Sounds like they didn't want it to come out that he was a parent, because heaven forbid we make someone look bad when they've engaged in unprotected sex. Carry on, Arlington. |

If you read the comments in the article they link to the Youcaring site for the family. On that site is a comment saying the person arrested is an intimate friend of the victim’s baby mama. |

I see the website. I don't see any comments saying anything about the arrest. |

I saw the same comment. But it also looks like the mom recently won the custody battle she was fighting with the victim's family, which makes me think there's no evidence she was involved in his murder, otherwise she wouldn't have gotten the kid back. |

Doubtful. The police just made the arrest this weekend and have been gathering evidence for months. They aren’t going to show their hand in a custody case to jeopardize a murder case. |

The custody action was filed in late June and mom got the kid back two weeks ago. I suspect what happened is that when the victim's family found out his was murdered by an "intimate friend" of mom's, they filed for custody believing she might have been involved in the murder. She got the kid back after authorities confirmed they had no reason to believe that was the case. The delay until he was actually arrested may have been because of the need to file an extradition request, locate him, etc. |
