Philadelphia Home Linked to 5 Missing Women, Disturbing Evidence Found
15 Sep
Summary
- Five missing women now connected to Philadelphia home investigation.
- Investigators found chemicals, drugs, firearms, and a Bundy note.
- Eugene Horsch, 44, is in federal custody on firearms charges.

An ongoing investigation in Philadelphia's Olney neighborhood is centered on a residence where five missing women have now been linked. Eugene Horsch, 44, is currently in federal custody on firearms charges related to the case. Investigators have seized a significant amount of evidence from the property, including chemicals, drugs, firearms, and a 55-gallon drum connected to water lines.
The five missing women include Nicole Fusaro, Gabrielle Amarando, Maribel Fresses, Blair Tonzelli, and Amy McHale. Tonzelli and Fusaro disappeared in 2018, Amarando in 2012, and McHale in 2016. Tonzelli was the first to be named in connection with the case when Horsch was arrested with an ID bearing her name. Recovered video footage reportedly shows some of the women appearing deceased, though their remains have not been recovered.
Further complicating the case, authorities found a handwritten note referencing serial killer Ted Bundy and methods for disposing of trash. The investigation also involves Horsch's late father, Raymond, as sources suggest video evidence may show him strangling a woman. The probe began in June after a federal park ranger's initial stop led to the discovery of suspicious activity and identification discrepancies.
