Hello,
Thank you for visiting our blog. I have started this blog two years, two months, and fifteen days after my sister, Tabitha Gayle Brock, was murdered. For over two years I have worked to start a non-profit charity foundation in memory of my sister. On the night of May 10, 2012 sometime after 10:15 pm her ex-boyfriend murdered her in front of their four-year-old son. He claimed that he struck out once and hit her with the side of his hand on her neck and that she fell down. He said he left the room and came back 30 seconds later and she was dead. He said that he only hit her the one time after they had been arguing for a while. All the blame in his eyes was placed on her. Their four-year-old son was in the home at the time and witnessed his mother's murder. From the very beginning her son has kept the same story about what he witnessed that night. He said that his parents were arguing and that his daddy began hitting his mommy in the head and stomach over and over again. He said that his daddy pushed her down and that she got back up. Her ex pushed her down again and this time she did not get up. Clayton, her son, said that he went and laid down next to his mommy and pretended he was asleep next to her because he was afraid. He said that she did not open her eyes again, but she tried to tell him she loved him. It hurts me to know the pain this little boy has gone through. After Tabitha died her ex placed her body in the passenger side of her car, left Clayton home alone, and then drove her to Enos Road past Seymour. He parked the car up an incline and poured gasoline over my sister and inside the car. He lit the car and her on fire and then let it roll down the hill. He was attempting to cause the car to hit a tree at the bottom and make it look like an accident. After all of this he went back home, showered, and then left with my nephew Clayton. It was a long twelve hours as we waited at my mom's house for news on my nephew. I did not know if we were going to get a call saying that he had killed himself and Clayton also. The State Police caught him in Kentucky at a McDonald's after his truck broke down. Clayton was adopted by Tabitha's mother. There has been a lot that has happened since Tabitha's murder. We have chosen to do something positive out of all the tragedy that happened. My sister was a beautiful kind and generous soul. We were blessed to have had such a wonderful person in our lives. Tabitha lost her life due to domestic violence and the anger of one man. This epidemic causes the deaths of more than three women and one man every single day in the United States and hurts countless families. I do believe that together we can change this with education and awareness. No one deserves to be treated with disrespect or be abused. If you ever feel need to speak with someone you can message us on our Facebook page. I know the pain that losing my sister has caused on my family and I would not wish it on anyone. Know that you are worth more than abuse and beautiful in every single way.
Tabitha's Little Sister,
