Schumejda then fled with his and Bradstreet's children, ages 3 1/2 years and 18 months - who were asleep in the home at the time - and then drove to his mother's home in Margaretville in Delaware County, state police said. He called police around 8 a.m. to report the stabbing, and was subsequently arrested, police said.

Schumedja remains in the Madison County jail without bail after being charged with second-degree murder, first-degree assault, and criminal possession of a weapon. His case is awaiting grand jury action.

Betcha' anything and IMHO only, he fled with the two little ones to his mom's, so he could control who has custody of the kids. He most likely doesn't want her family to have the kids. But, they can still try to get custody through the court. With these guys, it's always about control. fran

I wonder who gave him the black eye?

I hope she did.

Two more kids with no parents. When will this ever end? Ladies, if he is not worth marrying, do not make him your kid's father!!!

"May God forgive you,'' Bonnie Bradstreet said to Schumedja in the courtroom. "The person we thought we knew would never have done this."

When talking about Schumedja, Amy Bradstreet would always say "he rocks,' her mother said. "She had total faith in you, and so did we."
