Uncle Woodford speaks Out

More from the family of Bobby Cutts

CANTON The great uncle of Blake Davis hopes the 2-year-old boy doesn’t grow up knowing only half of his family.

Some day the child will want to know the Cutts side of his family, said Ernest Woodford, an uncle by marriage to Bobby L. Cutts Jr., who is Blake’s father.

“We’ll be here. And we’ll love him just as we do now,” Woodford said today.

That sounds about right. I know I shouldn't be knocking family members, but I wonder if this is the uncle who spoke out at and after the arraignment. I think the family must love Blake "just as (they) do now." Which may not be very much. There was little or no contact between the two families, and I haven't yet found any info on how much time Blake spent with Bobby's family. While I would certainly want Blake to spend time with all his family members, I would first wish to be assured that he will not hear remarks made about his deceased mother such as were made by Bobby's uncle after the arraignment.

Woodford said he doesn’t understand what happened to land his nephew in jail facing murder charges. He was outside Canton Municipal Court on Monday and interviewed with several media outlets.

“It’s out of character,” he said on Monday of his nephew. “He’s a good kid.”

Well, here's the family genius, at any rate! He doesn't understand what happened?

His fardling moron of a nephew killed a young mother and her unborn child, that's what he did! Gentle reader, do you think this act was "out of character" for Bobby? Lets review.

His wife is divorcing him.
His former girlfriend had a restraining order and a custody battle. She says Bobby told her daughter she would wind up as a showgirl, or some such.
He has impregnated not one, not two, but three women outside the bonds of matrimony.

I'd say he shows a continuing and chronic disrespect for women.

Just because Jessie is his only kill, doesn't mean he is incapable. There is always a first time.

Woodford said he understands that Porter, her children and other family members are suffering. “We understand they’re grieving, they lost a loved one. But we’re hurting too.”

Not as much. Not ever as much. In fact, to put his suffering in the same hemisphere as Patty's is one of the most telling statements this man made in this interview. "I'm suffering as much as you!" Sorry, guy. Not happening. Rip out your heart and let somebody stamp their boots on it, and then talk to me about suffering.

Anyone associated with the Cutts name is being treated unfairly and persecuted just because they’re related, Woodford said. The entire Cutts clan is being dragged into this when “we’ve done nothing.”

Um...this person't name is not Cutts, it is Woodford. I realize this is an annoying bit of tomfoolery, but I couldn't resist. Sorry. "The entire Cutts clan" needs to quit making excuses for their slime-ball member. This person needs to hush.

Woodford said his wife has been having an especially difficult time. “It hasn’t been easy in our house,” he said.

I think he should have shut up before he said this. "It hasn't been easy?" Oh. My. God. I can't believe those words even came out of his mouth.

"IT HASN'T BEEN EASY???"

We are talking about the difference between a sprained wrist and an amputation.

It's difficult to resist the temptation to say that the apple has not fallen far from the tree. Between this person's self-serving blather and Bobby's stepmother's denial, it is beginning to look as if The "Cutts clan" lashes out in its suffering, blowing it up to equal that of Jessie's family. Still, there is the possibility that other family members will be more reasonable, more sympathetic, more horrified that a member of their family could kill this lovely girl.

You will be glad, gentle reader, that I am holding back.
