Mom Slept With Pregnant Daughter's Fiancé—Then Allegedly Cut The Baby Out Of Her | Rebecca Park Case

Mom Slept With Pregnant Daughter's Fiancé—Then Allegedly Cut The Baby Out Of Her | Rebecca Park Case

Rebecca Park was 22 years old and 38 weeks pregnant when she disappeared from rural Michigan on November 3rd, 2025. Three weeks later, her body was found in Manistee National Forest—her abdomen cut open, her baby gone. Now her biological mother, Cortney Bartholomew, and stepfather Bradly Bartholomew face eight felony charges each, including first-degree murder and torture. But the allegations in this case go far beyond the killing itself. According to probable cause affidavits, Cortney had been having an affair with her daughter's fiancé, Richard Falor—the same man who fathered Rebecca's unborn child.

Rebecca's sister Kimberly also allegedly told investigators she was in a relationship with Falor. Prosecutors say the murder was premeditated—that Cortney researched it, planned it, and even texted family members claiming she'd given birth to a baby that didn't exist days before Rebecca vanished. According to court documents, Rebecca was lured to her mother's home with the promise of laundry soap and ice cream, taken into the woods, stabbed multiple times, and was allegedly still conscious when her baby was cut from her body.

The baby's remains were reportedly placed in a lunch cooler and thrown in the trash. They have not been recovered. Rebecca's adoptive mother told reporters she spent 18 years hiding her children from Cortney because she knew she was dangerous. She was right. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
