‘Graphic and Dark’ Photos Show 2 Missing Women Seemingly Dead in Philly Home as Police Find 10,000 Pages of Drawings, Manuscripts

Key Points:

• Police investigating Eugene Horsch's Philadelphia home have uncovered approximately 600,000 images, 70,000 videos, and 10,000 pages of writings, with some recordings allegedly showing two missing women believed to be deceased.
• The investigation began after Horsch was found arguing with a woman carrying identification of Blair Tonzelli, who has been missing since February 2023, leading to a search of Horsch’s residence.
• At the home, authorities discovered five urns possibly containing remains, a basement "home lab," and containers with unknown oily substances; the women identified are Maribel Fresses (missing since 2018) and Gabrielle Amarando (missing since 2012).
• The residence is linked to previous disappearances, including Amy McHale, missing since 2016, and is where Horsch’s father, Raymond “R.C.” Horsch, died in 2025; police continue to sift through digital evidence with FBI assistance.
• Investigators urge anyone with information about 417 West Chew Avenue or related missing persons to contact the Philadelphia Police Department, emphasizing that only a small portion of the evidence has been reviewed so far.
