A 21-year-old k*lls his partner, dismembers her body, and sends messages to her parents to make them believe she was still alive

Authorities in North Dakota, USA, have arrested 21-year-old Joshua Height for the murder of 25-year-old Isadora Wengel, with whom he had been in a relationship for four months. As reported, after the 25-year-old was killed in early January, the perpetrator dismembered her body and disposed of it in the trash, while sending messages from her phone to her parents to deceive them into believing she was still alive.

Wengel was last seen alive on January 3, as she was leaving a store near her home in North Dakota.

The 21-year-old, described by police as “apathetic” by those who questioned him, was first arrested on January 7, the day the 25-year-old’s family reported her missing, and admitted that they had argued and broken up.

At the time, he claimed that the 25-year-old may have committed suicide and that he had “checked Isadora’s phone to… convince officers and her family that it was a suicide,” a police spokesperson said.

However, what raised further suspicion was that the 21-year-old had searched on Google after last seeing the 25-year-old for “trash collection near me,” “how to register for a legal alias,” and for a saw.

Police later found evidence in a dumpster outside his apartment including plastic sheets stained with blood, towels with clumps of dried blood-soaked hair, and a 12-inch saw blade with material stuck to the teeth. Tests showed that the findings also included “fragments of human bones, skeletal muscle,” and tissue matching the 25-year-old’s DNA.

The subsequent investigation revealed that on the morning of January 4, a day after his victim was last seen the 21-year-old purchased a saw, clear plastic sheets, very large trash bags, and black duct tape.

Police have charged the 21-year-old with murder and are still trying to locate the 25-year-old’s body, which is believed to be inside one of the two giant bags the suspect had ordered.
