Resident discovers body of missing woman buried in basement

WICHITA, Kansas, Feb. 13, 2008компютри – Wichita Police say a body found in a north Wichita basement appears to be a drug-related homicide.

Acting on rumors that a body was buried in the basement, the current residents of an apartment in the 1500 block of N. Market started digging to see if they were true. Not long after, they smelled a foul odor and called police.

The apartment building in north Wichita was swarming with police again in Wednesday after getting a call from the residents about a foul odor on Tuesday.

“We responded, and were able to excavate that hole that was in the basement and recover the body of what appears to be a white female,” said Lt. Ken Landwehr with the Wichita Police Department.

Police say in addition to acting on the rumors about a body being buried in the basement, the current residents had another reason to be suspicious.

“From all indications, there had been newly poured scrap-like concrete in the bottom of the basement, and it had been covered by a large piece of plywood,” said Landwehr.

Once police began their investigation it didn’t take them long to name 26-year-old Chilo Hernanzez as a suspect. They say Hernandez was once a tenant in the apartment where the body was found.

“I used to come in here and chill and watch TV, watch movies with him, and Chilo, I can’t believe that he killed whoever that is,” said Kacy Reynolds, a friend of Hernandez.

But police have developed a timeline and they say Hernandez lived in the apartment during December and that’s when the victim’s family reported her missing.

Police say the victim and suspect were aquainted through drug activity.

“I just think it is tragic that this is happening so close to my sister’s house, and near a school. I hope the best for Cilo, I hope it ain’t true, but you never know,” said Ben Busby, a friend of the suspect.

Police are still waiting for autopsy results which will help determine a cause of death and a positive identification of the woman, although they say they know who she is by talking to family members.El juego del reglas poker basicamente es un juego donde un jugador compite en contra de otros jugadores for el bote.

Cats removed from Cedarburg home - By ED ZAGORSKI & LISA CURTIS - GM Today Staff

CEDARBURG - At least 10 dead cats and 14 living ones were taken from a Cedarburg home early Friday afternoon by Ozaukee County Humane Society employees after police found deplorable conditions inside the home at N73 W6957 Walnut St.

“It’s just a horrible situation,” said Beth Maresh, director of program services for the Wisconsin and Ozaukee humane societies.

WHS officials donning protective gowns, gloves and rubber boots continued to search the home for cats on Monday, certain that they would find more hiding in debris scattered throughout the house.

“It’s just very dirty, and smells of cat feces and urine,” Maresh said. “When you walk in, you don’t see cats anywhere. But they’re there, hiding in the basement, in the ceiling. I wouldn’t be surprised if there would be more dead cats.”

The home is owned by Michael Rossobillo and Carol Munden.

Munden acknowledged Monday that the home was in bad shape, but said she moved out of the home two years ago. Her estranged husband, Rossobillo, was supposed to be cleaning the home and taking some of the cats to the humane society, she said.

“I knew it was messy inside. I knew it had to be cleaned up,” said Munden, who lives in a condominium elsewhere in Cedarburg and suffers from severe rheumatoid arthritis. “He was supposed to be taking care of it.”

The Cedarburg police and fire departments were called to the home at 5:51 p.m. Thursday after a request from We Energies regarding a natural gas odor coming from the home.

According to a We Energies employee, a neighbor reported the odor coming from the property.

The We Energies employee did detect high levels of carbon monoxide coming through the outside furnace vents of the home.

Getting Rid Of That Basement Stench.

Filed under: Basement Odor, Air Freshener — billharris @ 8:50 am

We recently refinished the floor in our basement. The refinishing process consisted of an acrylic type paint with an epoxy topcoat. The entire process left our basement smelling pretty bad.

Just to add to the chaos, the air conditioner was pulling all of the air from the basement and distributing it throughout the house. Opening the windows in the basement wasn’t really an option to get rid of the odor. I decided to place the Bad Air Sponge actually inside of my air conditioner behind the air filter. It seemed to do the trick!

The smells were definitely negatively impacting the overall environmental health of our house. The sponge seemed to work very well in the 24 hours it took the smell to permiate and dicipate.
