If a spouse dies in a suspicious car accident after a person is murdered, the procedure involves immediate police notification, scene preservation, evidence collection, autopsy, a thorough investigation including a negative investigation to determine the cause of death and any potential criminal involvement.
This investigation was never done, therefore; we demand our Mom’s highly suspicious car accident be investigated as a homicide as the police do nothing and will not investigate it because they are afraid of the people involved.
Madeleine’s Story: On February 21, 1973 our Mom, Madeleine Leonard, called us, Debbie and Lori Leonard, at 10 pm after finishing a waitressing shift at the Top Hat Rotary Dinner in Mountainhome, PA to tell us she “had a tip on our Dad’s murder (John W. Leonard, Sr., September 8, 1970) and was going to Mount Pocono to check it out.” We begged her not to go alone but she said she “would be alright and would be home shortly.”
That was the last time we talked to our Mom and we, the five Leonard Children became orphans and began taking care of ourselves, as we had no other choice.
