Former police chief recalls 2009 arrest of man linked to Philly house of horrors
6abc Philadelphia • • general
Key Points:
- Investigators are examining evidence from a Philadelphia home linked to Eugene Horsch, where images and videos suggest the presence of seven women, some appearing injured or deceased; Horsch was arrested in June on unrelated charges.
- Raymond "RC" Horsch, Eugene's late father, became a focus after a 2009 arrest revealed a marijuana operation, firearms, and IDs of various females at his Chalfont, Pennsylvania home, but follow-up on those findings is unclear.
- One woman connected to the case, Amy McHale, was last seen in 2016 at the West Chew Avenue home and had been married to Raymond Horsch; neighbors noted her sudden disappearance from the area.
- Philadelphia police have not yet searched the Chalfont property, which has been renovated and contains a sealed large safe reportedly dating from the Horsch residence period.
- Authorities plan to return to the Chew Avenue property with a new search warrant; no charges related to the missing women have been filed, nor have any bodies been recovered.
