Lover Brutally Murders Mother In Front Of Her Young Children
The five-year-old girl cried out to the murderer, “You’re killing my mom”.
Samantha Rementer, 31, was a woman who always lived for others. First, it was her late husband, Joseph Baber, and then her two daughters, aged two and five.
The one time she followed her heart and started dating again, a twist of fate led her to 35-year-old Thadius McGrath. She had no idea that it would end in her murder and that her children would witness the violent crime.
The Loss Of A Loved One
Samantha lived in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, with her husband and two daughters. They were a happy little family until Joseph died of a heart attack in February 2021. Samantha struggled greatly after his sudden death and began to isolate herself.
Every time the oldest daughter would ask Samantha when their father was coming home, she would become a sobbing mess.
It was a difficult battle, but Samantha overcame her grief to tell her children the truth and focus on raising them as their father would have wanted.
