What to know

  • Philadelphia investigators have linked Eugene Horsch's home to seven missing women, at least five believed dead, after discovering alleged snuff videos and chemical equipment in June.
  • Forensic psychologist Dr. Kris Mohandie warns the case could involve distribution of such videos to underground networks, especially given RC Horsch's background producing pornography.
  • No homicide charges have been filed despite the discovery of alleged snuff videos, with the case still under investigation by Philadelphia police and the FBI.
  • RC Horsch, the family's deceased patriarch, was a convicted methamphetamine producer and author of violent sexual content, including a 2014 book with a chapter on dissolving bodies with chemicals.

“The fact that the father was involved in the pornographic industry indicates that there may have been, in addition to the sadistic motives that we usually see in serial murders, that there may have been profit in distribution of so-called snuff films.”
