This is a tough thing for us to do as we have never done this before (asking for help and also it will be extremely hard to have a loved one exhumed). Our Family was raised with pride where we did not ask for help. However, we are turning to all of you in the hopes you will help us and our Family.
I have just posted a Go Fund Me Page to have both John and Madeleine Leonard's bodies exhumed since both our parents were both murdered in the 1970's and many in this community attended both funerals with us. The cases are still unsolved after 53 years now for our Dad and 50 years for our Mom.
We need to get their bodies exhumed and examined by modern forensics to find truth and answers to try to solve these two murders. We need justice and closure. We are trying to raise funds because the Assistant DA, Michael Mancuso, in the Monroe County, PA, DA's office is blocking all investigations to solve their murders and the Monroe County Coroner's office, Thomas Yanac said "it was necessary since all records about any autopsies for both your mother and father are missing". He also said "the death certificate on your mother is not consistent with that type of accident". Therefore, we need to have a forensics pathologist start all over and perform autopsies on both our Mom and Dad’s bodies. Also, we need to hire an independent pathologist, hire a private detective to review both cases, uncover evidence, have DNA tests performed, and lawyer fees to pursue justice in these cases.
Please share this Go Fund Me Page with friends and family.
