Lisa Underwood was pregnant like Laci Peterson, the father drove her vehicle someplace else and walked home like Mark Hacking, and as we remind the DC police and FBI as often as we can, as in Chandra's disappearance, when a woman disappears look at her boyfriend. It just keeps happening.

Detective: Texas man says he suffocated pregnant woman, son
Ex-boyfriend charged with murder
Tuesday, February 22, 2005

DALLAS, Texas (CNN) -- A Texas man arrested for the slayings of a pregnant woman and her 7-year-old son told police he suffocated Lisa and Jayden Underwood in their home, a Fort Worth detective said Tuesday.

Detective R.A. Gallaway gave details of the crime in an affidavit he provided to Tarrant County, Texas, magistrate court. He said the confession was made to another detective during an interview at the Tyler Police Department.

The body of Lisa Underwood, 34, was found in water in a wooded area south of Denton, about 30 miles north of Fort Worth, police said. There were conflicting reports on whether Jayden's body was also found.

The woman's blue Dodge Durango was found in a creek Monday in Denton.

Underwood, who was seven months pregnant, and her son were reported missing Saturday after she failed to appear at her baby shower.

Stephen Dale Barbee, 37, was arrested early Tuesday in Tyler, east of Dallas, and then transferred to Fort Worth, said Lt. Gene Jones, a Fort Worth police spokesman.

Bond for the suspect was set at $2 million, a Smith County detention officer said.

Barbee and Underwood, both of Fort Worth, were romantically involved at "one time," Jones said.

A search of Underwood's home Saturday evening found "a significant amount of blood," but no signs of forced entry, Jones said.

Police on Monday searched a house near Underwood's home in northern Fort Worth, he said. Several neighbors said that Barbee lived at this house with another woman and her children.

An Amber Alert, issued by police over the weekend, was canceled Tuesday morning after Barbee's arrest, said a spokesman with the Texas Department of Public Safety.
