Michelle Clarke is the mother of a six-year-old boy.

Andlee Cribb was Clarke's ex-boyfriend and is the father of her son. The little boy was with him when Clarke was murdered.

Clarke had been on the phone with her son's dad when she was attacked, according to Cribb.

He recalled, "When I was talking to her on the phone, I heard her say 'get off me, get off me, no!' and I hung up the phone and called 911 because I knew she had been attacked."

Police were back at her Lake Street apartment Monday, examining a trash can where clothes were found.

Cribb said, "I feel bad for [my son] because now he doesn't have a mother. Him and his mom were so close."

"Last night, he asked me 'so she's never coming back alive?' and I was like 'No.'"

"I'm going to try and do right by my son, that is my primary goal. I am going to be the man [Clarke] wants me to be."
