Bella Bond's grandmother calls mother a liar

(MyFoxBoston.com) - Bella Bond's paternal grandmother is expressing regret that she hadn't taken the baby before her murder.

"Who would think of this horrible act… a little baby being murdered?" said Patricia Quinn.

She also said she believes Rachelle Bond, Bella's mother, is a liar.

"Everything she said is all lies… all lies," said Quinn.

Bella, formerly known as Baby Doe, was found washed ashore Deer Island in June. Last week police cracked the case and arrested Rachelle Bond with accessory and her boyfriend, Michael McCarthy, with the 2.5-year-old's death.

Quinn said Bond showed up at her house last Thursday night with her son, Joe Amoroso, and said they had something to tell her.

"She was crying and she said you are going to  hate me… you will hate me," said Quinn.

The next morning when news broke that police had identified Bella as Baby Doe, she Amoroso and Bond were all watching the news together. Shortly after, investigators came and arrested Bond.

"She was just arrested and didn't have a chance to say a word," she said.

Quinn says funeral services have not yet been finalized for Bella.
