This sounds bizzare. Why would they question the roomate? I am going to keep track of this story as it unfolds. It will be interesting to see who killed the roomate.
A 74-year-old roommate of a slain nursing home resident is “shaken up” after being questioned by Cicero Police, her son-in-law said Tuesday.Police interviewed the woman about the death of Mary Chrzaszcz, found dead with a plastic bag wrapped around her head Saturday afternoon at the 249-bed Alden Town Manor Rehabilitation & Health Care Center in Cicero.
Detectives told the roommate she was spotted “walking around with a plastic bag,” the son-in-law said. He also said police told her “We’ve got you on tape.”
The man doubted the existence of a security tape and said his mother-in-law was at a bingo game at the time of the murder. She’s in a wheelchair and in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease, he said.
The man said police also visited his home several times and checked his wife’s arms for defensive wounds. He said his wife had not been to Alden Town Manor in weeks. Police also took a photo of a family friend living upstairs, the son-in-law said.
