Missing Woman Said She Was Going To Long Island

As the search for Marion McCleneghan continues, more details surrounding the 40-year-old Park Slope woman's disappearance are coming to light. She was allegedly at her local deli a full day after fighting with her boyfriend at his home. The owner of La Dolce Vita told McCleneghan's mother this morning that her daughter came in on February 8th at 7 p.m. In tears, she told him, "Goodbye—you won’t be seeing me anymore." She said she was going to Long Island.

Previously it had been reported that the last person to see McCleneghan was her boyfriend, Richard Eric Sosa—whose house she left on the 7th "in a huff." Her mother now says the two were in the process of breaking up. Sosa still isn't listed as a suspect, though he had a scratch on his face after the disappearance, and has since gotten a lawyer. While the clothes she was wearing that night weren't found in her apartment, her cell phone and wallet were—though her two laptop computers and her stack of journals were gone.

Also noteworthy, while her husband (who she is separated from) originally described her as "happy," her mother says she was in therapy and "was having a rough year—first she lost a friend, then her father and two aunts," and had allegedly been regretting the aforementioned separation.

we're officially broken up now, but damn was she dirty, ironically tho, i never pee'd on her. the only person i ever pee'd on was another ex who was one of those "nice" girls... go figure.

ok, i gotta take a dump.

bye.

pissflaps

yeh she's the worst, but she cooks for me and buys me things. she'll toss salad for long periods of time, like one time for about an hour. hardly anyone does that...

it's just trying to leave and go home, that's always a headache

If you ask me,,, she is on drugs. on emdical medicine tranquylaiers and pain pills.. trying to live it up. i bet she turns up fine. she seems like she is going through a midlife crisis and needs to escape. no cell phones or money. just laptop and pill bottle and lots of fun with strnagers.

oh whatever my crazy ex gf used to attack me and scratch my face and bite me, and would forcibly try and keep me in her apartment. i would literally have to "escape" to get away. then she would often run off to the nearest bar immediately afterward and hook up with strangers, and then tell me the next day, as if i care. if somebody killed her one night, i'd hate to get blamed for it because i got scratches on me.

maybe she's a crazy bitch too? c'mon give the ex bf's of the world a break!

Sorry, but this begs the question: why did you keep returning to that apartment? (Maybe you didn't, but it sounds like this was an ongoing problem for you.)

I dunno, she's not blonde enough.

then we'll get nancy grace on it.

what's the age cut off?

WhoDunIt

Wonder if there was an inheritance from the father or the aunt? In that case would the technically still married but separated husband have any rights to it? Looks like a crime of opportunity to me.

FYI - if you are ever even suspected of committing murder or another felony it is in your best interest to get a lawyer.

JacqueMehoff

but, but, but if you're innocent just tell us everything.

that's what the cops will say.

until we get it our psyche that getting a lawyer is and always will be the right thing to do to protect yourself, we will continue to be doing stuff against our best interest.
