FORT WORTH, Texas Feb 22, 2005 — An ex-boyfriend was arrested and charged with murder in the disappearance of a pregnant woman and her 7-year-old son, officials said Tuesday.

A police official initially said the bodies of bagel shop owner Lisa Underwood and her son, Jayden, who had been missing since Saturday, were found Tuesday. But he later backtracked and said only one body was found.

Stephen Dale Barbee, 37, of Fort Worth, was arrested Monday night in Tyler, and Fort Worth police were bringing him back to Tarrant County, police said.

Police Lt. Gene Jones said he and Underwood had had a romantic relationship, but he didn't know why Barbee was in Tyler, how investigators knew to find him there or whether there were other suspects.

"Police Lt. Gene Jones said he and Underwood had had a romantic relationship"


So Lt. Jones had a relationship with Underwood?

2. Who writes these things?

Products of the school system in the last 25 years when grammar and spelling have been deemed 'irrelevant'.

3. Barbee confessed to strangling them both

This is one case that I think the Death penalty would be appropriate.
