Adam Conner, 37, was arrested Tuesday morning after the woman's body was found in their shared home on High Quest Drive on Monday. He is also charged with tampering with evidence.

According to a probable cause statement, Conner's mother, who lives with Conner and the victim, claimed she had not seen the victim since Saturday and reported her missing Monday.

According to an interview with Conner's mother, Conner told her to stay out of the garage because of a raccoon. Connor barricaded the garage door with a chair to prevent entry in addition to a 40-pound bag of bird feed blocking a closet door inside the garage.

Authorities say they located the body in the closet under a rug with a wheelchair on top of it.

According to court documents, a medical alarm worn by the victim sent multiple alerts to a local fire department on Saturday. Firefighters dispatched to the address and spoke with Conner, who claimed that the victim was in the hospital.


Police said Tuesday morning they are unable to make a positive identification of the victim due to the severity of her injuries and will refer to the victim as Jane Doe until the medical examiner is complete with their investigation.

During the investigation, officers said they found the body of a woman concealed in a closet. The probable cause statement identified the victim as Conner's roommate, who has mental and physical disabilities. Police said there was evidence that she had been restrained and suffered severe blunt-force trauma to the head.

Upon further investigation of the property, officers located multiple trash bags in the backyard. According to the statement, the contents included personal documents belonging to Conner, baby clothes, blood soaked sweatpants and towels and a bloody claw hammer. One investigator stated that the victim's head injuries appeared to be consistent with the claw end of the hammer.

"Uhh, the woman's corpse just... uh, like, ended up there. I don't know why, man. It's, like, not mine, you know? I don't know how it got there. It... just showed up. I mean, you know, my... my-my-my-my-my buddy, Poochie, he, he's a good guy, but he leaves stuff at my house all the time. So, I don't know man. Maybe ask him. Besides, weird stuff happens when I get, like, black-out drunk. I mean, like, shoot. I don't know how that thing got there. I mean, it's not usually female corpses, but Poochie, like, always forgets something. He's like, always texting me, like, 'Hey man, did I leave my uhh, uhh, uh what is it? My, uhm, toothbrush over there? I can't find it right now.' Yeah man, he, like, leaves a bunch of stuff. So, like, you know, like, he could've left this lady's dead body here too. Dude, I don't know man, I don't remember anything. Her dead body could be there for, like, any reason, man. I mean, we got flooding around here. It coulda floated here and just landed here man. I ain't, like, a mad scientist. I can't explain everything."
