The Skeleton Key Chronicles was born from a lifelong fascination with mysterious and sometimes macabre subject matter along with a love or research. So come along and check out some of my latest offerings, or as my dear Grandmother used to say, ” Step into my parlor, said the spider to the fly.”

Be sure to check out The Skeleton Key Chronicles on Facebook for your daily true crime fix. I post often and detail some of the most compelling cases in the news that are piquing my interest.

A lot more information came out today about that house in Philadelphia, including another name and a much better idea of what investigators have been sorting through. Nicole Fusaro is now the fifth woman whose case has been connected to the investigation surrounding the house on West Chew Avenue in Philadelphia.

Nicole was 27 when she went missing in 2018. Her name now joins Amy McHale, Blair Tonzelli, Gabrielle Amarando and Maribel Fressas, whose cases have all been linked to the same property.

And we're finally getting an idea of just how much evidence investigators have. There are more than one million photographs, videos and other digital files that were recovered in connection with the house. Actually there is so much material, the FBI has added more agents to help with the review, and they're only about 30% of the way through it.

So far, they've been able to identify 58 people who appear in those files. Some have already been located and spoken with, while investigators are still working to identify or locate others. At least one woman appearing in the material still doesn't have a name.

Investigators also plan to return to the West Chew Avenue house later this month as they continue putting all of this together.
With roughly 70% of the files still left to review, there is a lot about this case they simply haven't gotten to yet.

A candlelight vigil will be held tomorrow for 11-month-old Grayson Walton, whose case unfolded over the weekend in Muhlenberg County, Kentucky.

Grayson’s father had gone to work and left him with a babysitter, 19-year-old Elijah Mayes. According to investigators, Mayes said a family friend had picked Grayson up Friday night. But when police tracked down that family friend, she told them she hadn’t picked Grayson up at all.

A relative then told investigators that Grayson had been seen with Mayes at a home on Hillview Street in Cleaton. Police obtained a search warrant for the house, and Grayson was located inside.

Mayes was taken into custody and is facing multiple charges in connection with the case. He is due in court Thursday for arraignment.

Grayson would have celebrated his first birthday next week on September 26th.

A candlelight vigil

It appears sensitive photographs used for evidence in the University of Idaho student case may have been leaked. Unredacted photographs from what happened inside the house at 1122 King Road have somehow made their way outside of “official channels” and may now be in the hands of journalists and other social media creators.

Exactly how that happened is still unknown. With that said, Idaho officials are warning anyone who comes across the photographs not to publish or share them. The Latah County Prosecutor’s Office, Moscow Police Department and Idaho State Police say they are “deeply troubled” by the situation and are trying to determine where the material came from.

And these aren’t just another batch of investigative images. Many photographs have already been released publicly, but the photographs involved here are believed to be unredacted and include material that was specifically supposed to remain private.

The families of Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin have been notified about what happened. Prosecutor Bill Thompson said his office expressed its outrage over the situation and its sympathy to the families for having to deal with it.

Of course there are already plenty of people online trying to figure out who has the photographs and where they originated. But the much bigger question is how material that was supposed to remain private made it out of official hands in the first place.
