Deundrea Holloway Allegations

Holloway Arrested, Accused Of Beheading. “On June 9 at about 1:00 p.m., officers responded to the 3400 block of Bolivar Street in Alton, Illinois, and found 22-year-old Liese Dodd dead inside her home. Police said the expectant mother was supposed to give birth in mid-July, and her family was in the process of planning a baby shower for her. “What happened to 22-year-old Lisa Dodd who just moved to this place, it’s abominable. It’s completely terrible what happened to her,” Alton Police Chief Marcos Pulido told FOX 2. Soon after discovering Dodd’s body, detectives began searching for suspect Deundrea Holloway in the Litchfield area. He was arrested later that day in Gillespie, about 45 minutes away from Alton.” [Fox 2]

Report: Dodd Was Pregnant. “The investigation further revealed that the victim, Dodd, was beheaded. She was also pregnant with an expected date of delivery in mid-July. Dodd and the Holloway had been in an on-and-off dating relationship for about two years. Dodd had just moved to Alton a short time ago. Holloway is from the Litchfield.” [Telegraph]

Dodd Was Planning Baby Shower When Murdered. “Dodd was expecting a baby girl to arrive in late July, planning a baby shower that would have welcomed her first child into the world. Dodd’s mother says she plans to have a ‘celebration of life’ for Dodd and her unborn baby. Some of Noel’s classmates are planning a display to commemorate her daughter.” [Daily Mail]

Holloway Charged With Multiple Offenses. “Deundrea Holloway, 22, is charged with two counts of first-degree murder, two counts of intentional homicide of an unborn child, one count of dismembering a human body, concealment of homicidal death and motor vehicle offenses. Alton Police Chief Marcos Pulido said officers responded to the home Friday afternoon regarding a possible homicide after the victim’s mother went to check on her daughter and found her dead. Officers confirmed an adult was found dead in the home.” [WTVM]

Police Chief: Dodd Was “Decapitated By A Freaking, Savage Monster.” ““She was decapitated,” Pulido said as he held a photo of Dodd. “Decapitated by a freaking, savage monster.” “This daughter, this mother-to-be and her family were in the planning stages of a baby shower that was supposed to be at the end of June but now instead the family is planning a funeral because of what a monster did,” Pulido said.” [BND]

State’s Attorney Slams “Defendant’s Gruesome Actions.” “We offer our sympathy to the family of Liese Dodd for the profound loss they are suffering. We believe the evidence will show that the defendant’s gruesome actions here killed both a young woman and the child she carried in her womb. In the eyes of the law both these killings are equal. And he will now face justice for both. I want to thank the Alton Police Department and the many assisting agencies for their swift actions in taking this dangerous offender off the street.” [Madison County State’s Attorney Tom Haine]
