The 25-year-old mother of two killed on Mothers Day was found stuffed in a closet in a two-bedroom Rincon Valley apartment after police were tipped to possible trouble between the woman and her boyfriend.

Police Monday afternoon continued to search for Honorio Victor Pantaleon, 30, who is suspected of stabbing his girlfriend the mother of his two children before driving north to Ukiah a day later to assault the womans mother.

The slain girlfriend, identified by a family member as Patricia Barrales, was quiet, did not talk to neighbors and kept her children, two- and four-year-old boys, inside with her at all times, said property manager Bobby Hopper.

Hopper said the family had lived in the apartment at 6123 Montecito Blvd. complex for two months and that they had been good quiet tenants.

But Hopper said the first inklings of trouble at the apartment came Sunday afternoon when Barrales mother arrived shortly after 2 p.m. and asked to be let in to check on her daughter.

The mom came in and wanted in, but I said I couldnt let anyone in, Hopper said. She was crying. She said her daughters cell phone was off. She said the husband was abusive.

Hopper said he called Santa Rosa Police and officers searched the house, but the empty apartment looked fine.

A couple hours later I had a phone call from the nephew, Hopper said. He said she was dead in the closet. The police had done a walk through but she was buried under all the toys in the toy chest and they didnt see her.

When the police returned at about 9:30 p.m. with the new information, they found her body, he said.

Santa Rosa Police Sgt. Lisa Banayat confirmed that the womans body was found in a closet in the apartment, but could not say whether police had been to the apartment earlier in the day. She would not comment further on the case or the information provided by family members.

Banayat said though the suspect has a lengthy criminal history in Lake and Mendocino counties, he has not had any contact with Santa Rosa police.

A brother of the slain woman, Apolinar Barrales, said his sister had celebrated Mothers Day a day before with her family in Ukiah. Pantaleon was not at the family gathering.

Family members became concerned when Pantaleon dropped off his crying children at his mothers house in Lake County, Apolinar Barrales said. The children were so she called Patricia Barrales mother concerned and Santa Rosa police were ultimately alerted.

Pantaleon was last seen Monday morning, when he allegedly went to Patricia Barrales mothers home and assaulted her with a handgun. The 6:30 a.m. attack was being treated as attempted murder by Mendocino County Sheriffs officials Monday.

The slain womans mother was treated at a local hospital for a cut on her head from being struck with a gun.


Alright, this was bad enough that it occurred on mothers day, but unfortunately, this guy is still out there?!

It makes me sick that someone would kill their own girlfriend, and even further than that, stuff them in a closet?!

Honestly, murders in general, but one especially like this, make me want to vomit.... its freakin disgusting. Also, they had two children, and he just kills the mom and ditches them? What the heck is wrong with people?!

Well, see as how this guy is still out there, his photo is located on the original article page... so yeah... if you see him, phone the cops or something... what an *bottom*!
