(Cleveland, OH) -- A judge in Cleveland has ordered suspected serial killer Anthony Sowell held without bail. Since late last week police have found ten bodies at his home, which crews plan to take apart in case there are others. Donita Carmichael, who was told that her mother Tonia is one of the victims, says she just got the news today.
The "Cleveland Plain Dealer" reports Sowell was arraigned today on five counts of aggravated murder in connection with six bodies police found last week buried in his basement. The judge said the charges Sowell faces are some of the most serious allegations he had ever seen. Prosecutor Brian Murphy said, quote, "the state believes he is an incredibly dangerous threat to the public, not only in Cleveland, but beyond the city limits."
