  • Montana : Rebekah Barsotti

    Montana : Rebekah Barsotti
    Jan 6 2025
    Rebekah Barsotti was a compassionate and adventurous young woman whose life was tragically cut short under troubling circumstances. On July 20, 2021, she vanished near the Clark Fork River in Montana, leaving behind a trail of unanswered questions and a family desperate for justice. Months before her disappearance, Rebekah had escaped a turbulent marriage marked by domestic violence, determined to rebuild her life.

    Her remains were discovered nearly a year later, but conflicting autopsy findings and mishandled evidence have left her loved ones searching for clarity. Despite troubling details pointing to her estranged husband, David Barsotti, authorities ruled out foul play, leaving Rebekah’s family to navigate an uphill battle for accountability and answers.
    Rebekah’s story is a stark reminder of the challenges survivors of domestic violence face, even after they seek safety. Her family’s relentless pursuit of justice highlights the urgent need for reform in how these cases are handled.

    Help keep Rebekah’s memory alive by sharing her story, raising awareness about domestic violence, and demanding justice for Rebekah and other victims. If you have any information, contact the Mineral County Sheriff’s Office or CrimeStoppers. Together, we can ensure Rebekah’s legacy inspires change.
