"She was very responsible..."

Yep. I'm thinking she was, too.

Most of the article is about the investigation. You don't get to the good stuff unless you keep reading. Mom's been strangled, boyfriend skips the country with 16-month old who isn't his biological child, and ex-shackup goes on record vouching for Mom's character.

Carlos Gandarilla, a former boyfriend of Kristi's, described her as a hardworking woman who was focused on raising her son.

"She was very responsible," said Gandarilla, who shared a home with Kristi shortly after Justin's birth. "When she got paid, she always bought things for her son."

It's certainly in MY definition of "responsible" to invite new shackups into my home shortly after I've given birth to someone else's baby. Unless by "responsible" he actually meant "responsible for the circumstances surrounding her child's abduction."
