Neighbor said he was not surprised by plea

Neighbors of Barton and Jennifer Corbin today said they were relieved the case was over.

The Corbins lived in a Buford development. A neighbor who lives across from the home said he was not surprised Barton Corbin pleaded guilty today to killing his wife.

“I knew Bart well,” said Robert Holston. ” [The plea] just confirms what I thought all along. I thought he did it, though I hadn’t known of any trouble beforehand.”

“Bart was my friend. But Jennifer was my friend, too,” Holston said.

In the last few months the Bogan Gates neighborhood assocation built a park in Jennifer’s memory.

A granite marker in the small park, located between two homes, reads, “Dedicated in loving memory of our friend and neighbor Jennifer Barber Corbin.”
