Parts of a woman in a suitcase

[PM_Mama00]

Dee where are you getting your info? I can't find anything updated. It's very frustrating! I didn't hear anything about the tattoos. HOW SICK can someone be to do all this?!

The police implied that they have ruled out the woman's boyfriend and brother. Those were the two most likely "known" people to have done it.

All the women and teenage girls around here are being very careful though. I've read enough stories about serial killers to know that a lot of the time, people considered them charming and nice guys.

Yeah they can, and without knowing the reason for the murder or the pattern of a potential serial killer, all of a sudden everyone is a possible 'next victim.'
And someone who can dismember a victim would seem to fall into the antisocial/sociopathic sees victim as 'meat' category so it's not an unreasonable fear. Hopefully the police find the killer quickly and put an entire community at ease.

That is exactly why many serial killers are able to amass many, many victims before they're caught. They're charming and charismatic and are skilled at luring intended victims into bad situations, often against their own instincts and better judgement.

I really hope the local police are getting help. I'm honestly not sure this police department has ever had a murder before.

I read in one article (can't remember because I feel like I've read almost all of them) that there is a person of interest. I'm really curious who that is.

They had one a few years ago. It was at Drinks Saloon (directly behind my friend's house, across the creek) but that was in front of multiple people. They didn't really need to find a murderer. I haven't heard anything else.

ETA: Of the people I know from Gibraltar, no one knows her name. I wonder where she was from originally if not there?

[AGDee]

It was in the Detroit News:

I deleted my earlier statement about her tattoos being removed because I was afraid that it was "insider" information that could damage the case but then I thought for sure I had read it somewhere. I've added it back to the original post.

"Pamela Prpich had tattoos, and it appeared tattoos were removed from the body, police said."

[AGDee]

They have arrested someone. Hope it's the right person. They've also found more of her parts (that is so hard to say).

Police have said they'll release more details later this morning.

[PM_Mama00]

He confessed!

He confessed to dismembering her but not to murdering her. They still haven't established a cause of death. It's so creepy that he lived in the apartments right next door. Some reports are saying that they were both involved in some heavy drugs.

I'm glad he's behind bars. I will rest easier tonight.

Well they didn't have all the pieces before.

while I suppose she could have died and he decided he should pack some of her up in a suitcase or... something. He's going to be digging a big old hole trying to show that he didn't kill her too.

I do hope that they read him his rights and followed procedure so there's not a technicality that could be used to throw out the confession.

[AGDee]

His name has leaked to the press and some more details are coming out. This was the last person she had talked to her on her cell phone. He bought several containers of bleach at the little store right next to the condo complex and police were alerted to this "unusual" behavior. He was a regular at this store. The police took him in for questioning after two nights in a row of buying large amounts of bleach when he confessed to dismembering her (but not to murdering her). So, if they were into some heavy drugs and she OD'd or something, I guess he could be afraid to call anybody about it because he'd get in trouble. We'll see if that's what actually happened.

Other articles also say that the brother talked to this guy when he was going door to door trying to find his sister.

Oh yeah, and the guy is a butcher.

[AznSAE]

how the heck can anyone just chop up a body like that? it freaks me out just seeing a dead body. i hope he fries.

[AGDee]

I'm thinking drugs plus being a butcher?

He won't fry.. we don't have the death penalty here. He's also dying of cancer according to another neighbor. He's on oxygen. It's all so bizarre. I don't know that he'll live long enough to go to trial because that can take a long time in most instances.

[AznSAE]

well then he can fry in hell.
