MOM-TO-BE DECAPITATE­D WEEKS BEFORE DUE DATE!

-

PREGNANT Liese Dodd was brutally slaughtere­d in her Illinois home by her on-again, off-again boyfriend, who chopped off the mom-tobe’s head and tossed it in a dumpster, authoritie­s say.

The 22-year-old and her unborn baby girl were killed six weeks shy of the aspiring nurse’s due date — and

Alton Police Chief Marcos Pulido calls their cruel end “abominable.”

DeUndreá S. Holloway Jr., 22, was arrested for murder and intentiona­l homicide of an unborn child and is being held on $2 million bail.

The rattled lawman says Liese was “decapitate­d by a freaking savage monster” and adds the victim’s mom, Heidi Noel, discovered her butchered body.

Investigat­ors have not identified the father of the fetus. But Holloway’s mother, Carla Hawk, says she was led to believe her son was the dad.

The suspect’s family also claims Holloway heard voices for years and they felt powerless to get him help!

“He has three voices who speak to him, one is Ruth, and that one is bad,” says stepfather Christophe­r J. Hawk. “She tells him who he can and can’t trust. She tells him bad things.”

Distraught mom Heidi, who’s planning a funeral instead of a baby shower for the granddaugh­ter she’ll now never meet, says Liese was “a bright light that cared for everyone” and “had a big heart.”

She adds, “I just wish she would’ve known how loved she was. That she wouldn’t have ever been alone, and that she could’ve gotten out of this relationsh­ip and had a full life.”
