‘Ex-Boyfriend’ decapitates eight months pregnant lover

A man is believed to have gruesomely murdered his eight months pregnant ex- girlfriend.

Daily Mail reports that the 22-year-old pregnant woman was found decapitated. The Alton, Illinois woman was found dead in her mother’s apartment on Thursday.

Her decapitated head was found in a dumpster outside the building.

Dodd’s ex-boyfriend Deundrea Holloway, 22,  has been arrested on suspicion that he carried out the cruel act.

Her mother, Heidi Noel, said the family were planning a baby shower for Dodd for the end of this month – and were gathering gifts together ahead of the birth in late July.

She said Holloway was not the father of the baby, but the pair had been in an on-and-off relationship for two years.

“We were planning her baby shower for the end of this month,’ Noel said,

“I had just sent out invitations the prior Saturday for the baby shower.

“We were just excited and gathering the items you need to have a baby.

“She wasn’t set on a name yet. [She] said “my little bean”. So, we essentially were calling the baby “baby bean”.’

Noel is now planning to hold a ‘celebration of life’ for her daughter and grandchild after finding Dodd’s decapitated body.

‘It’s not something I wish on anybody. So, yeah, I’d rather not speak on that,’ she said.

The suspect has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder, two counts of intentional homicide to an unborn child, dismembering a human body, offenses relating to motor vehicles, and concealment of a homicide death.

Alton Police Chief Marcos Pulido said the murder of Dodd is ‘abominable’, adding that she was ‘decapitated by a freaking savage monster’.
