ILLINOIS – The Knox County Sheriff’s Office has confirmed that the human remains discovered in a storage unit in west central Illinois last fall belong to Richard R. Young, the former police chief of Maquon, a village located approximately 150 miles southwest of Chicago. According to a news release from the sheriff’s office, DNA from the decomposed remains was taken and compared to samples from Young’s relatives to confirm the identity.

Marcy Oglesby, a 50-year-old resident of Maquon, has been charged with first-degree murder and concealing the death of a person in connection with the case. She has pleaded not guilty and is being held in custody at the Knox County Jail. Oglesby initially claimed that the foul odor coming from the storage unit was from a dead opossum, but later admitted to concealing Young’s body inside a large box.

The exact cause of Young’s death is unknown, but a toxicology report showed that he had a high level of a toxic chemical commonly found in eyedrops in his system, according to WQAD-TV. Knox County Sheriff’s Department Detective Jeremy Moore testified that Oglesby was reportedly in a relationship with Young, as reported by WHFB-TV.

Its very lucky IL doesn’t have the death penalty.

"Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, does this look like the face of someone who would murder someone else and lock his rotting corpse up in a storage unit?"

I've never won a case yet.

A news story that begins with “Rotting Corpse” rarely turns out well.

THAT is a man!!!

I guess once it started stinking too much she would gag trying to take it somewhere to dispose of it.

So she just said it was an opossum.

Foolproof plan, thought through!

[ducttape45]

Wasn’t there a movie about police chiefs being murdered several years back?

[SisterK]

How do you get that ugly in just 50 years?

I think she was the left tackle for the NY Jets. The dead guy must have been a blind man to hook up with such a beast.

I thought you would post a pic of the perp not the rotting corpse.
