Decomposed bodies of a man and woman found with their throats slashed before cops find chilling clue in abandoned home

DECOMPOSED bodies of a man and woman have been discovered inside a home with their throats slashed – and cops are pointing to a chilling clue in the case.

The bodies were found on Wednesday evening in the Kensington neighborhood of Philadelphia, Pennslyvania, according to NBC Philadelphia.

At approximately 7pm on May 18, 2022, two bodies were located inside an abandoned building on North Ruth Street as authorities were responding to a call.

Police officers and paramedics found a woman and man lying alongside each other in one of the home’s bedrooms.

“It appears both of them had their throats slit,” Philadelphia Police Chief Inspector Scott Small stated, as per the report.

Both the male and female – who were likely in their 30s or 40s, according to Small – were pronounced dead on the scene at 7.26pm.

The deceased people were found on the second floor of the property.

Small added: “According to the fire department, [and] paramedics, these bodies have been here longer than one day because they’re already starting to decompose.”

In addition to finding the two decomposed bodies, police located a bag of clothing that possibly belonged to the dead woman.

The chilling clue which police found, was that drug paraphernalia was discovered all around the home.

A knife was also found on the scene by police, a reports.

Small also said surveillance footage was obtained from outside the abandoned building.

The police chief inspector said the video “may have captured someone entering or exiting this property” where both people were found dead.

Small noted: “This location is used by squatters or individuals to use the drugs, do drugs, sell drugs.”

He said there was “clearly a lot of drug paraphernalia inside” the abandoned home, NBC Philadelphia reports.

An investigation remains ongoing as no one had been arrested in connection to this case.

Police have not commented on whether or not any suspect information exists.

Anyone with information on this case is being urged to contact authorities.
