Police in Gloucester County, New Jersey, are looking for 47-year-old Sean Lannon in connection to a murder. He is wanted for questioning after a 66-year-old man was found dead inside a home on Myrtle Avenue in East Greenwich Township on Monday, 3/8. Police say the two knew each other. Lannon is also wanted by police in New Mexico. Albuquerque Police Department say he is a person-of-interest after the bodies of four people were found decomposing in car in a parking garage on Friday, 3/5. One of those victims shares Lannon's last name. The Gloucester County Prosecutor's Office says he is also wanted on separate charges of burglary and illegal possession of a weapon (knife). He is described as bald, 5' 9", between 140 and 165 pounds, with blue eyes. He may be driving a blue 2018 Honda CR-V with a New Jersey registration U71JXG. He is considered armed and dangerous. There is a $5,000 reward from the U.S. Marshals for information leading to his arrest. If you have any information, call Sgt. John Petroski of the Gloucester County Prosecutor's Office at 856-498-6238.
Authorities in Bensalem, Bucks County, announced on Tuesday afternoon, 3/9, that they have identified the remains known as 'Publicker Jane Doe' for over 30 years. The have identified her as missing teen Lisa Todd of Philadelphia. The skeletal remains of a young pregnant woman were discovered on January 24, 1988, in an underground pump house at the abandoned Publicker Distillery along State Road in Bensalem. Over the years, police attempted to identify the woman. At one point in the 90s, a forensic sculptor created a bust of what she might look like. As DNA technology progressed, technicians were able to extract and sequence DNA from both the mother and fetal baby's bones. A team of DNA genealogists were able to build a family tree with the help of ancestry companies like 23andMe. They were able to locate Jane Doe's probable siblings, who still live in Philadelphia.
17-year-old Lisa Todd was six months pregnant when she went missing in October 1985. She had dropped out of high school and had a 2-year-old son. Police still don't know how she died and how she ended up at the distillery. "Who she was with, whether or not there was any drug or alcohol use, whether this was intentional or accidental, people that could account for her whereabouts and what she was doing. We need the public's help," Bucks County District Attorney Matt Weintraub said.
UPDATE: One of the victims found in New Mexico is reportedly his ex-wife and mother to his three children.
A 15-year-old boy was shot and killed on Tuesday night, 3/9, in Southwest Philadelphia. It happened just before 7 p.m. on the 5200 block of Pentridge Street in Kingsessing. He was struck once in the chest and once in the left forearm. The boy was taken to Penn Presbyterian Medical Center where he was pronounced dead. No weapon was recovered and no arrests have been made.
