The latest daddy scum to commit familicide: DENNIS BAY. Three innocent people slaughtered at his hand.
And notice that we STILL have the same stupid bullsh** response from the cops and neighbors.
A word to the police: Daddy-driven slaughters are becoming increasingly common all over the country, if not the world. These incidents aren't "isolated" anymore. Maybe y'all need to read up on the literature some more. And no, your community isn't "safe." While a lot of these guys give ample warning as to their bloodbath intentions, some apparently don't. At least none that the female partner reports to the authorities, often for good reason (concern with not being believed, fear of further antagonizing the abuser/more violence, revolving door jail & bail policies, useless or unenforceable protection orders, custody threats, etc.) Also, it's not unusual for there to be no record of previous domestic violence calls to the police. Sometimes you guys just "lose" the records. And many, many victims never call for all the reasons cited above. Surely you're aware of that fact?
This case is actually a very typical familicide scenario--there is no great "mystery" about it. Mom and Dad were already going through a "contested divorce"--common code for divorce where domestic violence is being perpetrated by the father, but it's labeled as a "contested divorce" (or a "high conflict" divorce) so as to strip the father of responsibility for his actions. Mom moves out, but moves back home. The neighbor says she didn't know why Mom returned, but she had observed that Dad was "very demanding" (controlling of her time and access to other people). This is a very clear red flag for a violent abuser, though the article doesn't point this out.
Dad had also lost his job, which means he had lost his ability to financially "control" his family. If he was a like a lot of abusers, this made him even more volatile and threatening. Mom is identified as disabled, and it's not apparent here that she was even capable of steady employment.
So it's really not that hard to figure out why Mom felt she had no choice but to return. I'm sure it looked less risky to the safety of herself and the kids than going through with the divorce. And in fact, since battered women seldom have the resources to relocate elsewhere with the kids--in fact such a move is seldom even ALLOWED by the family courts--it would have been nearly impossible for her to provide protection to herself or her kids by leaving.
We certainly have plenty of cases here at Dastardly Dads of fathers who kill their ex-partners AFTER separation or divorce, and the kids too. And the custody arrangements don't make a whit of difference. In fact, since these dudes are generally granted unsupervised visitation or even custody, the mother can't even be present to monitor Daddy's "moods." So why wouldn't she go back? On the contrary, it's amazing that any woman goes through a divorce anymore. All it does is add more uncertainty and chaos to a bad situation.
Still, despite all the evidence as to what was going on, we are STILL afflicted with the Clueless Neighbor interviews. How this was a "normal family" and how killer daddy seemed "nice" and "very respectful." Frankly, these people don't know jack sh**, and it's too bad the media wastes their time and ours with this drivel. Much more productive to interview Mom's family and friends. If anybody knew anything about this brewing situation, they did. Or even local experts on the dynamics of domestic violence.
And a note to all the FR apologists for mass murderers: don't waste my time defending this piece of crap or how he was treated "unfairly." I won't publish your delusional comments. Mom caved in, she returned home, she met all of Daddy's demands. And she and the kids were slaughtered anyway. You can't negotiate with terrorists. And abusive fathers ARE terrorists. They are not poor widdle "victims."

4 dead in apparent murder-suicide in De Pere
10:17 PM, Feb. 3, 2012
Written by Hannah O’Brien, Paul Srubas and Scott Cooper Williams
Green Bay Press-Gazette
DE PERE — A man killed his wife and two children before killing himself Friday, police say.
Police Chief Derek Beiderwieden said a man called police from inside the house about 3 p.m. to report that he had just killed three people and was about to kill himself. The phone line went silent, and others at the police station then heard a loud “pop,” the chief said.
Officers arriving at the home a short time later found four victims — two adults and two children — shot to death in a bedroom of the single-story home. Authorities recovered a firearm believed to the weapon used in the apparent murder-suicide, Beiderwieden said.
Neighbors and land records show Denis and Michelle Bay are owners of the residence where the incident occurred, 1245 S. Erie St. Records indicate the couple has two children, Andrea and Daniel, but police would not say whether these were the individuals at home during the shooting.
It appears that the first three victims were fatally shot a short time before the gunman called the police department, Beiderwieden said. Investigators had not identified a motive but were gathering evidence Friday night.
It’s a “very, very tragic day for De Pere,” the chief said, describing the incident as De Pere’s first homicide in several years and possibly its first homicide with multiple victims.
“I believe the community is safe,” he said. “I believe this was an isolated incident.”
Mayor Michael Walsh commended the police department’s efforts.
“It’s never easy to respond to any incident like this, especially when children are involved,” he said. “It really affects our officers.
“It’s certainly a tragic incident,” he added. “Our thoughts and prayers go out to relatives and family.”
The Bays are going through a contested divorce, court records say, and Michelle, along with the children, had moved out about six months ago but returned home in the fall for the new school year, said Jane Nohr, who lives in the home behind the Bays.
“Why she went back with him I don’t know,” Nohr said.
The Bay family moved into the neighborhood about five years ago, said Nohr, who has lived at 1244 O’Keefe Court for more than 30 years.
“I didn’t know the man very much,” Nohr said. “He was the kind of guy, if she was out talking to me, he’d send the kids to get her. He was very demanding.”
When Michelle Bay, 44, and the children moved out, they lived in an apartment on East River Drive, and she bought the kids a dog, a Lhasa apso named Maddy, Nohr said. When they moved back in with Denis Bay, they took the dog with them, but Denis, 46, “never liked the dog,” Andrea Bay had told her. The dog was led out of the residence by authorities this evening.
Nohr last saw Andrea Bay Thursday morning when the girl was playing with the dog outside before school and brought it over to the fence to visit with Nohr’s two Lhasa apsos.
Denis Bay was laid off about a year ago, Nohr said, but she didn’t know what his occupation had been. Michelle was on disability.
“She kept having one operation after another,” Nohr said, adding that she didn’t know why.
Dan Angell, who lives across the street, said they seemed like a normal family. “I would have never guessed that any of that would have happened,” he said.
A number of neighbors noted that they didn’t know the family’s name, but saw the couple’s children — one in middle school and the other in elementary — get off the school bus after school Friday afternoon.
Nicole Born, who lives across the street from the house where the incident took place, said her husband talked to Bay and noted that he was “nice, very, very respectful.”
A police truck was outside the ranch-style home with an attached garage Friday evening. The garage door was open, showing a room nearly filled with materials. Beiderwieden said he does not believe police had been called to the house for any previous trouble.

Dad breaks into mom's home, assaults her, abducts 2-year-old son; forces cops to back off by holding child outside car window (Easley, South Carolina)
Our latest Daddy Drama star: JOHNNY JAMES EDWARDS, JR. I'm sure the FRs will praise him as their latest "misunderstood" hero....even though he used a toddler as a human shield against the police.

Man Accused of Holding Son Out of Window, Running from Deputies

Published: February 01, 2012 Updated: February 01, 2012 - 4:15 PM
EASLEY, S.C. --
Johnny James Edwards, Jr. faces charged for burglary, unlawful conduct towards a child, and criminal domestic violence of a high and aggravated nature.
Deputies say the situation started Tuesday night at a home on Ridgefield Circle in Easley. Jacqlyn Smith called deputies and told them her child's father, Edwards, was trying to break into her home.
Investigators say by the time deputies got there, Edwards entered the home, hit Smith in the head, and took their young son, 2-year-old Grant Edwards.
Deputies tried to block Edwards in, to keep him from leaving, but they say Edwards held the boy out of the car window, to get deputies to back away. When they did, Edwards took off.
Dispatchers talked Edwards into surrendering, but they say Edwards ran again, and this time, ended up in Greenville County.
Department of Natural Resource Officers showed up at the Greenville location, but they say Edwards became frustrated and took off one more time.
Pickens County deputies were able to reach Edwards, and finally talked him into giving up in the Dacusville area.
Both mom and the child were taken to the hospital, but should be ok.
Edwards was arrested and booked into the Pickens Detention Center.

"Angry" dad kicks neighbor's door while holding 2-year-old daughter (Cornwall, England)
Seems dad DARREN JONES was enraged because the neighbor had offered refuge to his daughter's mother, who it appears he had assaulted prior to her escape from the home. But Dad wasn't charged with assault because he denied doing so (huh?). Then Daddy goes ballistic at the neighbor's door--all while he's holding his 2-year-old daughter--and all he gets charged with is "threatening behavior." Even though the police had to threaten him with a taser to get him to "calm down." For this, he gets to attend a "domestic violence programme." Which will do diddly squat. Daddy coddling English-style.

Child saw father's rage
Wednesday, February 01, 2012 Cornish Guardian
AN "EXTREMELY angry" man who was holding his two-year-old daughter as he kicked and punched a door has been ordered to attend a domestic violence programme.
Darren Jones, 23, of the Whitehall Estate, St Kew Highway, pleaded guilty to using threatening behaviour and appeared before Bodmin magistrates on January 27.
He had denied a charge of assaulting his partner Abigail Fleming by beating, and this was withdrawn by the Crown Prosecution Service.
Jill Wilson, for the prosecution, said that on November 1 there had been difficulties between Jones and Ms Fleming and she had gone to a neighbour's house.
Jones, who was extremely angry, followed her and "to everyone's shock" kicked and punched the neighbour's door while he was carrying the child under his arm.
When the neighbour's father Clive Allen tried to calm things down, Jones was aggressive towards him.
Jones then returned to his own flat and could be seen pacing around with his shirt off. He then went back and banged on the door again.
Police officers had to threaten him with a Taser before he would calm down.
He later told police that Ms Fleming had asked him to take the child round to her at the neighbour's but would then not answer the door.
Chris Andrews, for the defence, said Jones accepted he had lost his temper.
Probation officer Hannah Thomas, recommending that Jones should join the integrated domestic abuse programme, said that the offence had been part of a domestic incident and it was very important that he should accept the impact this would have had on his daughter.
The magistrates sentenced him to a two-year community order with probation supervision and participation in the programme, as well as ordering him to pay £85 in costs.

Dad starts raping 11-year-old daughter after her mother dies from cancer (Bundaberg, Australia)
As you would expect, this particular piece of scum is an UNNAMED DAD.

Man jailed for raping daughter
Vanessa Marsh | 2nd February 2012
A MAN who started regularly raping his 11-year-old daughter after her mother died has been sent to jail.
Judge David Reid, who said the family's story was "tragic", ordered the 36-year-old Gin Gin dad behind bars for a total of nine years.
Bundaberg District Court yesterday was told the man, who cannot be named to protect the identity of his daughter, raped the girl at least 12 times between May 2008 and October 2009 while she was aged 11 and 12.
Prosecutor Julie Aylward said the offending began just a month after the girl's mother had died of breast cancer.
"Because of their distress at the loss of their mother, the (victim and her brother) would ask to sleep with the father and that's when this all began," she said.
"She was obviously turning to her father for comfort and support."
Ms Aylward said the man's offending was brought to the attention of police after his daughter told her boyfriend what had been going on.
Photos of text messages the girl had sent to her boyfriend were tendered to the court.
"She was clearly distressed with suicidal ideations," Judge Reid said after reading the messages.
Ms Aylward said it seemed the man had tried to "replace" his dead wife with his daughter.
"It is truly reprehensible. This little girl has really now lost both her parents and her life will never be the same," she said.
The man pleaded guilty to six counts of rape, two of indecently treating a child who was a lineal descendant and one count of maintaining a sexual relationship with a child.
Defence barrister Kim Bryson said the defendant co-operated fully with police, even giving them information that led to further charges being laid against him.
"His mental state deteriorated rapidly after his wife's death," Ms Bryson said.
Ms Bryson said prior to his arrest in 2010, the defendant had been a productive member of the community and worked at a local farm.
Judge Reid sentenced the man to varying concurrent jail sentences of nine, three and six years, with parole eligibility after three years.
He has already served 519 days in custody.
"It seems that for many years you were a good father and husband," the judge said.
"Your child became physically close to you ... really, in need of cuddles ... unfortunately you took the opportunity to introduce her to a sexual relationship."

Dad with felony record abducts 5-year-old daughter during supervised visitation (Mansfield, Ohio)
I think supervised visitation is vastly overused and abused. As far as I'm concerned, it should only be used for parents who are being investigated. And then it should be ended. Either the parent is safe or not safe.
Instead, we have dangerous parents who are put on "supervised" indefinitely--until they manage to abduct the child and/or hurt somebody. Or they manage to convince the naive young social workers that they were "unfairly" accused, so they get unsupervised visitation and/or custody--typically with disastrous results for the child.
On the other hand, innocent parents (often protective mothers) can be roped into "supervised" for years on end as well--mostly as a "punishment" by the abuser and their cronies in the courts.
At any rate, these long-term cases become big money makers for these centers.
We're always told that the use of official centers for visitation would eliminate security problems. That turned out to be a crock of @#$%, didn't it.
We're not told much about dad MONTY BAUCH here, except that he has an (unspecified) "felony record" and that he had exhibited (unspecified) "threatening behavior" in the past. Notice that Children's Services was NOT in favor of giving Daddy visitation at all, but they were overruled by the courts. And that Daddy was not arrested. Typical coddling....
Note that this is all about DAD regaining custody, and that there is NOT ONE WORD about Mom. What happened to Mom? Was this a custodial dad? Lots of unanswered questions here....

Dad in videotape case loses visitation
Man left with child during supervised visit at the YMCA
Feb. 2, 2012
Written by Mark Caudill and Lou Whitmire
MANSFIELD -- A judge temporarily ordered a local man to have no contact with his 5-year-old daughter after he took the child during a supervised visit Wednesday morning, according to authorities.
Richland County Juvenile Court Judge Ron Spon issued the order after an incident at the Mansfield Area Y. According to a police report, a case aide from Children Services and a parent aide supervisor not affiliated with the agency said Monty Bauch, 50, left with his daughter before they realized it, using an exit that did not have an alarm.
The girl was in the temporary custody of Children Services, but Bauch's attorney, George Keyser, said his client thought the temporary custody had expired.
"You're supposed to file for an extension within 30 days before one year ends," Keyser said.
Children Services Executive Director Randy Parker said the agency filed the necessary paperwork Jan. 13, but a hearing has not been scheduled.
"We just got done with multiple hearings on Dad's motions to get the girl back to him," Parker said. "No decision has been made on Dad's motions."
Keyser said he did not tell Bauch to take his child.
"We would never have advised him to do something like that," the attorney said. "We want him to follow the law. It's in the court's hands."
Bauch returned the child to juvenile court about 2 1/2 hours after taking her. He was not arrested.
"He volunteered to take the child back to court, and he did," Keyser said.
But he did not return her before police became involved. Chief Dino Sgambellone said police believed they were responding to a crime.
"It's my opinion the way it occurred (was) a possible father absconding with a child, and we take that very seriously," Sgambellone said. "Upon further investigation, through working with juvenile court, we were advised to see that the child be returned. Anything further would be a matter for the court."
Bauch has a felony record, Parker said. He also is the man at the center of a dispute between Children Services and Spon over a missing surveillance tape.
In an email, Parker said the agency took custody of Bauch's daughter in January 2011. In late March, visits were reduced because of Children Services' concerns. Supervised visits resumed in June at the agency.
By November, Parker said, the court allowed visits to take place in public, over the objections of Children Services.
"Despite voiced concerns by (the board) that Bauch had no ties to the community and that we considered him to be a flight risk, when coupled with the threatening behavior exhibited by Bauch during the case from the outset, the court permitted the public visits," Parker said in the email. "Public visits started around the end of November and in less than three months, the concerns expressed by (the board) were exposed by the events of (Wednesday) when Bauch absconded with the child from the unsecure public visitation location."
Spon said public places often are used for visitation.
"An order of the court permitted the father to have visitation with the child at the YMCA to be supervised by a parent aide worker and/or a caseworker from the agency," the judge said. "They are the custodian."
Spon said he canceled visitation "until we find out what went on, as a precaution."
"The main thing was her safe return," he said.

Man sold daughter for TL 5,000, reports say
2 February 2012 / TODAY'S ZAMAN, İSTANBUL
A man allegedly sold his 12-year-old daughter to a 54-year-old man in return for TL 5,000 and even signed a contract for the deal, Turkish newspapers reported on Thursday.
The incident took place six years ago but only came to light last week, when a number of newspapers reported on it. According to the press stories, Osman Y., father of then-12-year-old girl E.Y., sold his daughter to Yusuf A. in exchange for TL 5,000. Reports also noted Yusuf A., who was 54 at the time, was the employer of Osman Y.'s older son.
The two men even signed a handwritten sales agreement, a copy of which was published in Turkish newspapers on Sunday. The contract, apparently prepared by “the seller,” dated Feb. 12, 2006, features a paragraph written by Osman Y., which reads: “I have sold my daughter for TL 5,000. I handed my daughter E.Y. to Yusuf A. on Feb.12, 2006. I have received the payment in cash. My daughter will be under control of Yusuf A. from the above-mentioned date on. I give my consent as a father. The contract has been signed. The girl has also given consent and signed the contract.”
Yusuf A., who divorced his wife and has four children, allegedly took the girl to a hotel in Kemer, in Antalya, and allegedly raped her. E.Y. continued to attend school as she was held by Yusuf A.
When E.Y.'s guidance counselor asked students to write down something which bothered them, E.Y. left the classroom crying. Then, she told her teacher she had been sold by her father to her brother's boss. The teacher reported the case to the police.
A court case against Yusuf A. has been under way since 2006; however, there were contradictory reports in Turkish newspapers as to the details of the case. The most recent session of the trial took place on Wednesday in the Antalya 1st High Criminal Court.
Newspaper reports said Yusuf A. testified in court, denying he had had sexual intercourse with E.Y., but was arrested after his testimony on Wednesday. The next hearing is scheduled to take place in March. Also in Wednesday's hearing, a witness statement from a hotel receptionist that was read out confirmed Yusuf A. had brought the child to a hotel. However, it was not clear at what point in the judicial process this testimony was given.
It wasn't clear where E.Y. is currently residing.
