Death of worker at treatment plant ruled a homicide The Associated Press
PATERSON, N.J. - A woman whose body was found in a tank at a water treatment plant drowned and her death has been ruled a homicide, the Passaic County prosecutor said Monday.
Geetha Angara had been doing water quality tests Wednesday when she disappeared. A search found her body about 100 feet from where she was working, but her two-way radio and clipboard were found directly below the work area, which had a protective grate to prevent falls, Prosecutor James F. Avigliano said.
"That was where we think the woman was either pushed or shoved into this opening," Avigliano said. Water flow in the tank probably contributed to movement of her body, but did not have much effect on the smaller, denser items, he said.
The regional medical examiner made the homicide determination, which detectives agreed with, he said. The examiner also found the cause of death to be drowning, he said.
Investigators last week began interviewing all 85 employees working at the plant, and all will eventually be interviewed, Avigliano said.

Steven Quayle is posting mysterious deaths of scientist that have happened in last few months on his website, but I cannot link it. The administrator does not want anything posted from his website.
Would you know why??
check your freepmail
Thanks for the post. Interesting/disturbing.
the problem is Paterson is not very clean.
Thanks! I understand now. I had no idea.
A close friend also disclosed late last week that Hossam Armanious spent two to three days searching for the deposed Bishop of Luxor during a trip to Egypt this past summer. Armanious found him in a monastery in the desert.
"Hossam spent one day with the exiled bishop," said the friend, Rafique Iscandar, who is also the president of the American Coptic Union. "When Sam lived there, he used to help him in the church. The bishop would call and say, 'Hossam, can you help us?' and Hossam would help."
The FBI has gone to Egypt to investigate, said DeFazio, adding that authorities want to know about the family's travel habits. It wasn't known whether Armanious' trip or visit with the bishop had any connection to the homicides.
"a financial motive". sure:

OMG, I can't believe their implying that the Armanious' were secretly wealthy !
Its almost like their trying to cast aspersions upon th evictims and say hey the dead family was at fault fo rhaving ill gotten gains or something !
They lived in a very modest home in Jersey City Heights.
<<"Do you think if it was financial they would not take the gold and a ring from my sister's finger?" said Ayman Garas, the dead woman's brother. "Do you think if Hossam had a lot of money he would have complained about his job not giving him enough hours?
"I mean, he never complained about money, but he wasn't rich.">>>>>
Also these killings were very PERSONAL in nature.
People who are simply trying to rob and get money/jewelry don't think hey I want to make an artistic when I murder these people.
<<<<"the victims appeared to suffer "ritualistic" injuries, including holes bored under each family member's neck, said the source, who saw photos taken of the bodies after they were released to a funeral home. The face of each victim was obscured with a bag, he said.>>>>>
Yeah I forgot that Paterson "aka Mecca West" is in Passaic Cty.
Might have something to do with Steve Quayle being an idiot kookjob.
"It took three days to find this body in the water tank."
Are you saying this was a dry (no pun) run?
Geetha (with picture) is #54 of murdered scientists since 1994 on Steve Quayles list.
