It was clear from the detectives' faces that they had come to Theresa Bunn's home with bad news.

Bunn, 21, had been missing since Monday evening, and the pregnant woman's family had hoped hers was not the body found strangled and set ablaze in a garbage bin Monday night, the first of two women found murdered in similarly grisly fashion this week. But moments after detectives went inside the family's home Thursday, Bunn's family erupted in grief, their wails disrupting their quiet Englewood Street.

"She's dead. She's dead. My sister's dead!" Bunn's sister cried outside the family's home as neighbors on nearby porches shook their heads in disbelief. Sobbing family members ushered the woman's sister back inside.


Authorities identified Bunn's charred body through dental records three days after it was found in a garbage bin in the 6100 block of South Prairie Avenue, two blocks southwest of Washington Park. She was eight months pregnant. Bunn's mother, Rosemarie Williams, her voice heavy with emotion, talked quietly of her daughter's radiance. "She was a very beautiful person," she said at the family's home, where dozens of people gathered. "She was just trying to have her baby."

Body is missing Woonsocket woman

BURRILLVILLE —

Marc K. Connolly Jr., 11, had been told that his mother might be the person who was found dead,
under suspicious circumstances, in the Black Hut Management Area. He had hoped for the best.

But yesterday afternoon, his father returned from the Burrillville Police Department and ended
the mystery, telling him that his mother, Vicki L. Connolly, 33, was the one found in the woods
and that the police were investigating the possibility that someone had killed her.

It was a lot to absorb.


Marc dealt with it in the company of his family, at the same Woonsocket house where he had
occasionally visited with his mother since last year, when his father took custody and he
moved to Burrillville.

The sixth grader was a jumble of emotions, by turns talkative and capable of a chuckle,
but also momentarily quiet and eager for a hug.

He acknowledged that his mother had fallen into drugs after her divorce from his father in 2005.
But he and she still visited from time to time, he said.

The last visit was in early September, perhaps on Sept. 3, just a few days before she vanished.

She had invited him to eat a spaghetti dinner with her in the Woonsocket home of some close family
friends, he said. That wasn’t possible. “I had to go somewhere,” he said.

At one point, she also promised to pay for him to play football this fall, he said.

“Then, she just disappeared,” he said.

Vicki Lori Ann Connolly had been missing about two months before some hunters
found her body last week. The police had said she was last seen on Sept. 6.



Some hunters discovered her around 8:30 a.m. Friday in the vicinity of a dirt turnaround
area at the end of Spring Lake Road in the Glendale area of town.

Suspect linked to missing woman

FORT WORTH --

A 40-year-old man who once lived in the same Fort Worth apartment complex as a missing General
Motors assembly worker has been arrested in connection with the woman's suspected slaying.

Although Glenda Gail Furch's body has not been found, police arrested Rodney Eugene Owens on
Tuesday on suspicion of murder after learning that his thumbprint was on duct tape found in
a trash bin outside Furch's apartment building.

Furch, 51, clocked out at the General Motors plant in Arlington shortly after midnight Sept. 28,
apparently stopped at a Chevron station for gas not far from her Woodhaven apartment in Fort Worth,
then disappeared.

"The evidence suggests that she was either killed inside her apartment or removed against her will,"
homicide Sgt. J.D. Thornton said Tuesday. "Combine that with the lack of contact she has had with her
family, friends and job, and it indicates that she is, in all likelihood, deceased."
