Vic’s mom: Please free killer

The mother of a pregnant Ohio woman slain by her boyfriend forgave the man, persuaded prison officials to allow the couple’s son to visit him behind bars and now is working for his early release.

“I think he’s been broken, and I think he has allowed God to heal him,” Patty Porter, 70, told the Canton Repository about Bobby Cutts Jr.

Cutts was sentenced to life in prison in 2008 for the murder of Jessie Davis, 26, and their unborn daughter. He left their son, Blake, now 12, in Porter’s care.

The former Canton City police officer testified that he elbowed Davis in the throat during an argument in their Plain Township home.

Cutts’ chances of an early release are unlikely, but Porter is still hopeful. She said Blake needs his father.

“I felt like he had to go [to prison],” she said.

“But now when Blake needs his dad in his life, he’s the one that suffers the most.”
