Tina Martindale

Tina Martindale,

In March, a Kane County coroner's jury deliberated for more than an hour -- much longer than normal for an inquest -- before ruling Tina's death a homicide.

Though the Aurora Police Department is investigating the case, no one has been arrested.

On February 21

On February 21, 2005, 20 year old, Evelynn Grace Smith died of stab wounds. She was murdered in a bathtub, then placed on a bed. Her killer folded her arms across her chest and then laid a Spanish language bible on her. Her killer, at first, claimed that the two had a suicide pact, but it was later determined that there was no way that Evelynn could have inflicted the wounds that she had upon herself. Investigators learned about some sort of domestic violence report between Smith and Trejo-Ramirez in North Carolina but hadn't obtained any details. Fernando Trejo-Ramirez, 19, has been charged with second-degree murder. Click Here to see Evelynn Grace Smith's story as told by her mom's friend, Francine.

poor ben panicked, spending the next day and a half in rebecca's one bedroom apartment, drinking and smoking and god knows what else, as her body grew cold and stiff. the blood stains on her bed had long since dried when ben saw fit to call the proper authorities on his white trash self. rebecca's family had to make do with a closed casket ceremony. eventually, ben was found guilty and sentenced to life behind bars, where his meals would forever be provided, and he would never again have to sweat a utility bill.

Tracey Sigman, 28 years old, was beat to death by her husband, in her home on May 1, 1994. Her 11 year old daughter Megan, and 15 year old brother were also present the day that this happened. Tracey had 42 multiple bruise over her body, 6 abrasions to her head, hair was missing from her right temple. Her 9th rib was also broken and her sternum broke and cut a one and half inch gash into her heart. Her spouse, Megan's father, only spent 10 years in prison for this violent death, in the presence of two minors. Although his daughter showed up at his parole board hearing, he was released from prison. Tracey's brother lives in the same town as this man and has to encounter him on occasion. Megan, the daughter states that he was VERY abusive to both her and her mother.

Megan's story of her feelings surrounding all of these events are blogged in a story called: " Letters from Megan, Homicide through the Eye's of a child", Insights into the feelings and life experience of the children that bear witness to domestic violence, abuse and homicide .

Sandra Kay Travis has been missing from Mayfield, Kentucky since July 31, 2005. Her daughter, who lives in Illinois was not aware of the extent of the abuse that her mother suffered, until after her mother went "missing". Mrs. Travis' daughter has since learned that a lot of victims of Domestic Abuse "keep it to themselves". Mrs. Travis, daughter has been told that Sandra Kay's husband, Bobby Travis, is a person of interest in the case, by the Sheriff’s Department in the presiding jurisdiction.

When you ask Sandra Kay Travis' daughter, "what do you think has happened to your mom?" She will readily tell you that she believes that her mother was murdered! She has sound reasons for this belief. Below is a series of correspondence between myself and the daughter of Sandra Kay Travis. You will see why Bobby Travis, should be investigated, which has YET to take place in a manner in which the family members are satisfied with. There are also "key" pieces of evidence that I have omitted from this document as they may or may not be applicable. I neither want to alert Mr. Travis, if indeed, he is responsible for whatever happened to Sandra Kay Travis, nor do I want to compromise these items (possible physical evidence) if they indeed do hold "answers" to certain physical evidence relating to the disappearance of Sandra Kay Travis. Below is some of the correspondence between myself and the victims’ daughter. As I usually do, certain items will be underlined or put in a Bold font as I believe that they are pertinent to this case. This is the story of the disappearance of Sandra Kay Travis, 58 years old, a mother and grandmother. When her daughter speaks of her, you can hear the resentment in her voice at feeling like her mother's case has been ignored in the media. She states, “My mom was not a pretty young blond, a beautiful pregnant woman, a high profile celebrity that went missing, but she was a 58 year old mother and grandmother. She was a beautiful, caring, loving person; she was a living, breathing human being, who happened to have nothing. Does that mean she is not worthy of being found??” Sandra Kay Travis story as told by her daughter. My mother at the time she went missing was not employed, not because she didn't want to work, but because her husband would disable the car and she could not get out to look for a job. I know this because the last time I talked to her was a week before she went missing. We talked about her putting in applications and she said she was unable to because the car wasn't running and so I told her to ask her husband to take her in to town, she relayed the message to him without response. It wasn't until after she disappeared that I found out that her husband would take parts from the car so that she could not leave and he did this quite often. I don't believe my mom knew this. Most days she would not even get out of her pajamas, this has been confirmed by many of her friends that I spoke to. Her husband physically, verbally, emotionally and psychologically abused her throughout their 25 year marriage. The last time I spoke to my mother was July 24, 2005. I called to tell her thank you for the card she sent me for my birthday on July 22, 2005. On August 17th I received a phone call from the mother of my mom's husband. She said that Bobby Travis, my mom's husband, had told their family that my mom had gone up to Illinois to stay with me for a couple of weeks and that I had just called and told him that she DIED in her sleep on my couch . (Note: he later changes this story) He also told them that the body would stay in Illinois because she was going to be buried with the rest of her family there. His family decided to call us to find out where they could send flowers for the funeral. It is my belief that my mom's husband was unaware that my mother had given his family my phone number in case of an emergency. I believe that Bobby Travis thought that they would have no way to contact us and find out the truth. He was wrong. I immediately told the family that everything Bobby Travis told them was a lie and that I was going to call the sheriff's department to have them go to the home to find out what was going on. I tried to call both my mom's home and her cell phone and I received no answer. I then called the sheriff's department and explained the story to them. Their first response was "are you sure someone isn't playing a joke on you?" I told them this was not a joke and I want a deputy sent to the home to check on my mother's well being. An hour later the deputy called me back to tell me that he made contact with Bobby Travis, and that he had now changed his story. He now says that he was too embarrassed to tell his family that his wife really left him for another man, so instead he told them that she died . He said a truck driver with an 18 wheeler drove down their small country road and picked up my mother at their home and left with her and no one has seen or heard from her since. He said he would have called to let us know that she left, but that she took all the phone numbers with her. (Notice that in the above statement, he changes his story after contact is made by the local police department and what a convenient response that he came back with. Of course, his explanation regarding his wife’s disappearance was not the same as his original, but you will find out later that this could very well be just another misled direction on the part of Bobby Travis. Keep in mind also, that it is common in abuser's to discredit the victim. While his story changing is not indicative of his guilt or innocence in any responsibility in the disappearance of his wife, it does ring true, of the typical response of an abuser and he has ALREADY lied once! Read on and make up your own mind to see if you "buy" his second story) Now this is coming from a man who I later found out had been having an affair with another woman for several month's before my mom went missing. My mother, just days before she went missing, had found out about the affair and had told her husband that she wanted a divorce and was going to take her half of what she was entitled to. (If you know anything at all about control and abuse, this previous statement is probably sending up "red flags" galore. She recently found out that her abusive husband of 25 years has been having an affair. She tells him that she is leaving and intends to get her half of what she is entitled to. Of Course, for the abuser, this always means a LOSS OF CONTROL and since they believe that they are entitled to everything and all decisions regarding the relationship ultimately are his to make, her behavior would be completely unacceptable to him in this situation...) The deputy told me there was nothing he could do because my mom was an adult and she was free to leave if she wanted to. Same old song and dance whenever an adult goes missing. His family, in the beginning, believed that he was involved and filed a missing persons report. A search was done by cadaver dogs on the property and the sheriff's department "walked" through the house. I was never notified they were doing a search, I heard it from a third party. They never talked to any neighbors or family members. If they had, they would have found that a neighbor my investigator had talked to had been sitting outside with her daughter on an evening around the time my mom went missing and heard what she says were " screams of a woman being tortured ." (WITNESS, WITNESS, WITNESS..THE AUTHOR interjecting AGAIN) She did not call the police as she did not have a phone and was too scared to go down to my mom's home. The mother of Bobby Travis also demanded that he tell her what he did with my mother and he told her "she's dead and she isn't coming back." This was overheard by his sister and brother-in-law as well. However, they are now denying this information and are protecting and covering up for him. There are some members of his family that still do believe he killed her. They are however being harassed by Bobby Travis and those that are covering for him. The investigator that helped me with my mom's case sent an 18 page report of evidence to the sheriff's department and they have never responded. We also, in person, took the 18 page report plus more to the Commonwealth attorney because we wanted to try and get a grand jury investigation. This attorney says he does not see enough evidence and is not pursuing the investigation. ( HERE IS THE PART WHERE I OMITTED THE PHYSICAL EVIDENCE; I HOPE THAT THE APPROPRIATE PEOPLE SEE THIS SO THEY WILL KNOW, OUT LOUD, THAT THERE IS THE POSSIBILITY OF PHYSICAL EVIDENCE REGARDING THE DISAPPEARANCE OF SANDRA KAY TRAVIS!) We also found physical evidence, ************OMITTED, OMITTED, OMITTED*****The sheriff's department has never checked out these items. We then talked to the Kentucky Bureau of Investigation and all they said is "what do you want us to do?" I even sent the sheriff a letter asking them to turn the case over to the Kentucky State Police and they have never responded to my request. Bobby Travis is a person of interest in her disappearance, this per the sheriff's department. PART II When I first heard of the possibility of Mrs. Travis leaving her husband for another man and that being a possibility in her disappearance, I asked her daughter why she so strongly believed that this could not possibly be the case and why she so strongly suspected foul play on the part of Bobby Travis. This was Mrs. Travis' daughters reply to that question: You know at first when he said she left him for another man, I thought well maybe she did. He did give a name of the truck driver she left with and that is what made it almost possible. I thought why would he not just say she left with another man. Why would he make up a name?? Still, again why would he lie and tell his family that she died. He must have really been sure she would never come back and that is why I don't believe the truck driver story. If she left with someone, it is always possible for her to come back. If he said she died, he then knew for sure she wouldn't come back

If

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
But make allowance for their doubting too,
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream--and not make dreams your master,
If you can think--and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings--nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much,
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And--which is more--you'll be a Man, my son!

--Rudyard Kipling

National Media Contact Information
If you are trying to circulate a missing or murdered person's information, often times it's very important to get it to go national. Below is a list of addresses, emails and websites that are affiliated with the national level. I recommend sending letters and emails to each of these at least once every two weeks until you receive a responce. You may change the format of the letters each time so that once it's opened by the agency, they do not recognize it from the last few attempts. This way the letter is read and it is given a chance
