Basement lab, digital evidence discovered in "house of horrors" tied to murders

In June 2026, Raymond "RC" Horsch's home in Olney, Philadelphia, became a focal point for an investigation into multiple disappearances. Horsch, a deceased pornographer who died at age 82 in 2025, is suspected of involvement in the presumed deaths and disappearances of several women. The case began when his son Eugene Horsch, 44, was arrested with a woman using false identification belonging to one of the missing individuals. Searches uncovered over 1 million digital images, including videos that allegedly depict two missing women, Gabrielle Amarando and Maribel Fresses, who appear unconscious or injured.

Among the evidence found were chemicals in vats, five urns believed to contain human ashes (two identified as belonging to Horsch's father and a relative), and disturbing videos of women being subjected to physical harm. Police believe that Nicole Fusaro is one of at least five missing women connected to the home, with evidence suggesting she may have been strangled in a video. The investigation remains active despite no human remains or DNA having been recovered from the property.
