Cleveland Escorts: Police find six bodies at Ohio home
Police asked members of the community who may have loved ones missing to come forward with photographs of the relatives in a bid to help the identification process.
Department Lieutenant Thomas Stacho said police searched Sowell’s home because he was named as a suspect in a rape and assault case.
“It was such a disgusting sight” that homicide detectives discouraged Stacho from going into the house, he told CNN.
“I can tell you I stood outside the home for about an hour yesterday, and the stench from inside was overwhelming.”
The United States has experienced several gruesome multiple murders in recent months, including a case in September in which a Florida man was charged with slaying his wife and five small children.
Also in September, police arrested an alleged serial killer in Milwaukee, Wisconsin whose DNA was found on nine women murdered over a 21-year period, eight of them prostitutes.
