*I was really surprised when I searched and could not find the story of the beautiful Ms. April Wyckoff. Please forgive me if it was already posted but I could just not find it on any of the forums.
This one hits home with me on a personal level as her son is a friend of mine. Watching a first hand account of his life and what he has gone through and continues to go through is heartbreaking. He has yet to be able to put his mother to rest and living where it is the "talk of the town" has been rough. We all sat in the bar and had the news on in the background as they flash the story on the screen, every one begins talking about it not even knowing that her very own son sat amongst them. A very sad night as I bit my tongue while trying to change the subject.
Union, NJ: Matthew Ballister, 44 of Union, NJ was arrested and charged with killing, dismembering and dumping his girlfriend 43 yo April Wyckoff of Cranford. His mother Eleanor Schofield, 70, of Mountainside, was also arrested and charged of hindering the police investigation. She has been accused of helping to hide the evidence. To date her body has not been fully recovered.
