Stephen Barbee: Sentenced to Death
Posted: Monday, February 27, 2006 3 Hours 25 Minutes 56 Seconds Post Meridian

It was inevitable.

Stephen Barbee was sentenced to death for killing Lisa Underwood, her son Jayden Underwood and her unborn child a year ago.

The jury had to find him a threat to society and I suppose that’s exactly what happened.

Now, Stephen Barbee’s family blamed the outcome on the media coverage of the trial. I would suggest that they (members of Stephen’s family) practice a little compartmentalized thinking here.

"
To those who were sad and upset at the verdict, I would say, go ahead and love Stephen Barbee if you do but, also accept the fact that he is a murderer and that one way or the other, he is going to eventually die for this.
"

He confessed to what he did. I am not sure about exactly how you can swerve out of the way of a death sentence after you admit to killing a pregnant woman and a seven year old but that’s what usually happens when you do.

Regardless of the reason, (Stephen Barbee says that Lisa was going to blackmale him among other things but that’s heresy) there is no justification for it that is going to satisfy any jury.

The cool part is, if he got life on appeal (you get an automatic appeal if you get sentenced to death) the general population may very well kill him anyway. Even prisoners have standards. At least this way, he would get the violent death he deserves.

A year ago when this happened I wrote an article, stating that there are consequences to certain actions. If Lisa Underwood, me or anyone else messes with the wrong person, something bad may happen. A lot of people wrote in and commented. Well a lot has changed and what I wrote was based on what I knew at the time. Some of it may very well be incorrect. There are however a few facts that remain.

  • Nobody will ever know what really happened that day. I would say that if I am going to admit to committing capital murder that I have nothing to gain by lying about anything else or why I did it. That’s me though.
  • At one time, Lisa Underwood thought that Steven Barbee was a great guy. It’s a moderately safe assumption that she wouldn’t have dated him otherwise. Calling him all kinds of names, “The Devil”, or whatever runs contrary to what Lisa thought of him at one time.
  • Lisa Underwood went whatever length of time she dated Stephen Barbee, a second length of time after they stopped seeing each other and six months being pregnant all without being killed by Stephen Barbee. Sorry folks that’s a fact. Something happened and that is undeniable. Keep reading the next point below.
  • Something had to happen to set him off. The only explanation so far, is what Steven Barbee said happened. Short of a lie detector session we’ll never know.

I personally have no bias here. Just telling it the way I see it.

Kevin Rousseau, prosecutor said: “He got what he deserved.”

Amen to that.

Its going to take a while but one way or the other Steven Barbee will get his.

Why, until he beats the shit out of her several times, of course. He's livin' in the big house, drivin' ron's truck... I hear he knew Ron before he met Theresa. Maybe they shared a cell? Poor Theresa. Oh, how the mighty have fallen. She has to support a man to have a piece of ass, and even when she gives them everything she can(t) afford, they still screw around on her. She needs to look for quality men. I'm sure there's a lawyer or doctor (plastic surgeon?) somewhere who'd be just absolutely delighted to have her, assuming she can keep her mouth shut. Once the mouth is open, the true sleaze is revealed.

Ah yes, poor TB. She continues to lament her own misfortunes while screwing over employees, bill collectors, family, and "friends". Then she cannot figure out why people speak ill of her. She cannot pay her company's bills but she can damn sure get Botox, laser hair removal, etc. I'm quite sure Ms. Underwood's loss is not high on Theresa's priorities.

Since Theresa is in so deep to creditors, and owns nothing, I doubt there is anything for Mrs. Underwood to take. Theresa continues to live the good life; lots of fun, food, shopping, and partying. As far as her brawls with Ron and Stephen, she probably started most of them - she is big and tough and likes it rough. Oh yeah, and Stephen did try to persuade one of his ex-con employees to throw her in the wood chipper.

Just sit back and let me tell you a story. Of course Steve and Ron are both guilty. And Theresa knew LONG before Ron told the cops. She just kept it a secret. Then when they took Steve to jail she had him sign everything over to her, and she thinks THAT will keep her safe from Sheila Underwood's civil suit. Good luck. Hope Mrs. Underwood gets something settled before the vultures (read bill collectors) start to hover over the carrion that is Cowboy/Classic Cutters. Maybe Mrs. Underwood can have that big house. Theresa won't be able to pay for it much longer. If ever the State Comptroller gets wise and audits her, the end will be swift. She also lied during the investigation about Ron. She said that Ron had "never hit her" etc. Is there anyone who was ever around them that doesn't know better? I mean, cmon, does she want us to believe that the first time he hit her was immediately before he removed his ankle monitor and ran to the loonybin to check himself in? Don't feel sorry for Theresa. So long as the Texas Correctional System continues to release inmates, Theresa will have a "soulmate". Remember, this is a woman who talked about Nathan's (Ron's son) penis size, then went on to sleep with his brother. This woman would STILL have Steve Barbee back if he was to get out of jail. Damn shame he didn't kill HER first and save Mrs. Underwood all that heartache.

As someone who knows, and from the "horses mouth" Steven and Ron planned on killing Lisa for months. Ron had stated previously that he had killed before and gotten away with it and was willing to kill Lisa for Steve. Steve had not spoken to Lisa for more than six weeks, went over to her home late and killed her himself rather than waiting for Ron. Ron came back to Lisa's and helped load the bodies while Steve tried to clean up the crime scene. They both drove seperate cars to the grave site and buried them. Ron was emotionally affected by his actions but Steve went home, made love to his wife and carried on as if nothing had ever happened. Ron turned Steve in himself and tried to make himself look like the good guy. His motive was money, a new truck and taking over STeve's life, including his x-wife. Steve who had never been able to keep his mouth shut, blabbed to the police officer in an effort to be buddy buddy with the officer. Realizing what he had done, he rapidly began to blame Ron for the whole thing. Steve wanted everyone to believe that he had lied about the confession. Steve lied to get out of trouble all his life, not to get into trouble. Steve and Ron are both where they belong. It is only unfortunate that Ron is not sharing a cell with Steve on death row. Ron is a lifetime violent offender and will offend again. His son, Nathan is a thug and will end up in prison for the majority of his life because he knows nothing else. The only winner here is Theresa who is far better off with out any of these psychos. Pick your next man carefully Theresa, or you will end up in the pen yourself.

To Taylor Spurgeon, and the genius known as "Keep talking your shit, bitches." Now that you can get your heads out of your own fucking asses, you can obviously see that Ron DID in fact do shit, and he is going to do time for it. At least he was considerate enough to take the plea bargain, and not drag out another long trial. For those of you so quick to defend him, I hope you see that blind faith can make you look like an ass-kissing idiot!! For Lisa's family, I hope that you will find some comfort in knowing that those responsible (yes, Ron too!!) have been brought to justice.

I think that not very many people have met Ron and don't know him. I think that just because his name is in this case he is wrongly accused of something that he didn't have a part of. And maybe you guy's should meet Ron before you judge someone. Alot of you guy's have got him all wrong. And I don't think that he should be charged with anything.!.

I don't know who all will see this... My heart just broke reading what Sheila wrote about Jayden. Dear Gon in Heaven, I will never understand how a person can kill another person, especially a child. I was trying to find a memorial to visit when I ran across this site. I am still sickened of the fact that these decent, respectable, very much loved ones are no longer inhabitants of this world. May The Lord bless the family and friends of these gentle souls. Sheila, my heart goes out to you. I am sorry for your loss. Words don't help, I am sure. But still, God bless you.

My prayers and heartfelt sorrows go out to you. People always want to try and blame the victims of violent crime. They always have excuses, and justifcations to why innocent lives were ripped from living. I look at my kids and cannot even think how SB could have been able to kill a beautiful living child like Jayden, as well as his mommy and her baby. To the Underwood family; don't let negative comments on sites like these tarnish your memory of your loved ones. The majority of people in the world will remember your loved one's spirits and not pay attention to sickos blaming the victims. God Bless

Ron Dodd's trial has been moved to November 13th. I got information today that stated he believes that he will either get off or do less than five years. Also, I talked to some reliable sources and they belive that Ron Dodd had to have helped Steven Barbee carry Lisa and Jayden from their home and over a barbed wire fence to bury them in their make shift grave. There is no way he could have carried them over or under by himself. Also, I now know that Jayden's lips were riped by duck tape. I WANT JUSTICE FOR LISA, JAYDEN AND MARLEIGH, I WANT RON DODD TO GO DOWN FOR HIS INVOLVEMENT. And yes this Sheila A Undewood, I was Lisa's Mother and Jayden Zan and Marleith Ann Underwood's Grandmother.

This kind of corn-fed mess cracks me up. Now the author is a killer and rapist like Stephen Barbee? I understand you might not want to read about some potential unpleasantness about the case and your loved one but all he is doing is playing devils advocate and asking some questions that should be asked, unpleasant as they may be. If this was a random act by a stranger, there would be no questions and it would be obvious that she didnt set him off. If you really read what this asshole (you should look at some of the other bullshit on here) is saying he does repeat over and over and over again that Barbee should fry for what he did, justice was served and in this article, that he will get his sooner or later and Lisa should not have died. Sounds to me like he agrees with you all more than disagree. Hell I want to know what really happened too.

Some women are attracted to violent, stupid guys is all. I had a niece to get killed by her boyfriend in 2000.

Now all I know is what is in the paper and on the internet. Hell I read it was an umborn son too. I dont have your address or phone number so I cant call u to verify everything the media says and I betcha he cant either. Its his site and his opinion. Git your own blog.

Lisa's unborn child was a girl!!! You said, "son." So women who ask men for anything can instigate a murder!!!! It is a good thing you are notgetting paid for this. Can men who ask women for anything instigate a murder? Is that an excuse for murder. So I guess, women who are raped and murdered caused the man to do it!!!!! Author may be a killer and a rapist but not responsible for his actions, like Stephen.

It's a tragic loss for everyone. Barbee did the crime, he has to do the time and pay the piper. I can't help but wonder, as I've questioned before, what kind of pressure was being put on him to cause this to happen? If Ms Underwood had not asked him for child support and insurance, would this have ever occured? Would he ever go over there again.

This is hard for me to get off my mind. When a punk goes into a convenience store and kills the clerk for a few bucks, or a gang member shoots an innoncent person in a drive by, those are senseless murders. When someone instigates a situation, directly or indirectly and it results in death, that's just aboslutely horrible when you wonder if it could have been avoided. This is my last observation on the subject, what's done is done and the system has run its course.

We'll never know

Observer, I understand your frustration about the author's comments but the media did report that Barbee said Lisa threatened to blackmail him. That was reported last year after he confessed. Now let me make one thing perfectly clear... the whole blackmail story was something Stephen Barbee made up to try to justify his anger. I don't believe anything Barbee said about Lisa. Afterall, he is the murderer that killed her and made sure she wouldn't be around to tell the world what a liar he is. Barbee tried to pass it off like an accident -- that they got into a fight and he didn't mean to kill her. We all know that was a bullsh*t lie and obviosly the jury knew it too. Anything that he said after the fact was just a bunch of lies from a cowardly baby killer that was trying to make excuses to cover his ass. From what I understand that is what Barbee did all his life -- break rules and then look for ways to get out of paying the consequences. Well, the State of Texas will make sure he doesn't get out of this one. I just hope Ron Dodd get the maximum punishment too.

You are an idiot. Where did you get the "Devil" thing? Had you been at the trial you would know that is what a cousin said to him after the juror's verdict of Death Penalty, which was unanimous.. Still have your facts wrong. Also, Lisa obviously did not need him or want him. No one ever(other than you) implied she tried to blackmail him. Had that been an issue or consideration, I am sure the defense would have gone there. Even the defense did not want to try to justify this horrific act. They just tried to defend his right not to die, which by the way, the jury agreed was not going to happen!

What an Idiot you are.
