Summary
An excavator returned to the Olney property this week as FBI agents and Philadelphia police dug up the backyard, set up tents and tarps, and moved through the scene in hazmat gear.
The renewed search follows earlier evidence tied to at least seven missing women, including apparent "snuff" films, ash-filled urns, a chemical drum connected to the home's water system, and boxes of seized items.
Investigators have publicly linked images and videos to four of the seven women and said dozens of other people have been identified from the material, though no bodies have been found and no new arrests have been announced.
Eugene Horsch, 44, was arrested in June after police found him with a woman carrying one missing woman's ID, but he has not been charged in the disappearances; his late father Raymond "RC" Horsch owned the home.
The scale of the forensic response suggests investigators are still chasing new leads from evidence already recovered, extending a case that has widened from a local search to a possible serial-killer investigation.
