Quick Summary

Philadelphia police are investigating over one million images taken from a house formerly owned by suspected killer R.C., after identifying Nicole Fusaro, a 27-year-old missing woman from 2018, as the fifth person connected to the property. The home in Olney, North Philadelphia, was discovered following Eugene’s arrest in June and contains alleged snuff films featuring Fusaro and other missing women, along with chemical vats and writings about serial killers. Authorities are examining seized hard drives that include evidence suggesting Fusaro's involvement and details about another victim, Blair Tonzelli, a 35-year-old healthcare aide who vanished in February 2023.

Story summary

In June 2026, Raymond "RC" Horsch's home in Olney, Philadelphia, became a focal point for an investigation into multiple disappearances. Horsch, a deceased pornographer who died at age 82 in 2025, is suspected of involvement in the presumed deaths and disappearances of several women. The case began when his son Eugene Horsch, 44, was arrested with a woman using false identification belonging to one of the missing individuals. Searches uncovered over 1 million digital images, including videos that allegedly depict two missing women, Gabrielle Amarando and Maribel Fresses, who appear unconscious or injured.

Among the evidence found were chemicals in vats, five urns believed to contain human ashes (two identified as belonging to Horsch's father and a relative), and disturbing videos of women being subjected to physical harm. Police believe that Nicole Fusaro is one of at least five missing women connected to the home, with evidence suggesting she may have been strangled in a video. The investigation remains active despite no human remains or DNA having been recovered from the property.
