According to Crime Online, the suspects are also charged with gravely abusing the victim for more than a month before to his demise.
According to ABC affiliate WHAM, Captain Kelly Swift of the New York State Police stated, “This is one of the most horrific crimes I have ever investigated in my 20-year law enforcement career.”
During a two-week visit with Arzuaga, Nordquist went round-trip from Oakdale, Minnesota, according to a statement from the Canandaigua Police Department that was shared on the Missing People in America Facebook page.
His last contact with his family occurred in late January, and he was last spotted earlier this month.
Nordquist’s family asked for a welfare check after they were unable to get in touch with him and his phone went straight to voicemail. On February 9, Arzuaga was contacted by police.
According to reports, Arzuaga’s son admitted to detectives that he had no idea who Sam was before they spoke with him.
