Summary: 52 year old Tonia Carmichael was found at the house of a sex offender in Cleveland, Ohio. She had been missing just short of a year. The family said in the missing persons report that Tonia was addicted to crack so we be gone for a few days at a time. They new something was wrong when she hadn't come and picked up two pay checks. The FBI ran a DNA test to figure out the first body. The same test is being done on 10 other bodies. All eleven were found at the house of Anthony Sowell. It appears that seven of the bodies had been strangulated. The other five were too decomposed but it is assumed they were also strangled. Any of these bodies could be from within the last five years. Back in 1989, Sowell was charged with rape and was imprisoned from 1990 t0 2005 and since release was living the home where the bodies were found.
Near by neighbors thought there was a smell permeating from the sausage factory across the street from Sowell's house but come to find it was the bodies. Five were burried out in the back yard, seven in the house and a skull wrapped in a paper bag in a bucket was in the basement.
Opinion: I guess i just wonder whether or not sowell was on a supervised probation? It just amazes me how people like this can get away with things for so long but the people who actually think there plans and motives out get caught. These sex offenders who are deemed dangerous need to be watched much more closely than they have been. For the five bodies that were so badly decomposed...i hope the DNA test helps your families find peace.
