Human remains and hidden safe discovered at Philadelphia property

FBI investigators searching a derelict property in Philadelphia have discovered human remains in the backyard and a hidden safe beneath the floorboards. The discovery, which occurred around mid-October 2026, marks a significant development in the ongoing investigation into the disappearances of seven women. The site was the former residence of Raymond "R.K." Horse, a convicted methamphetamine producer and creator of violent adult content, and his son, Eugene. Horse, who passed away last year at age 82, had long been a central figure in the investigation due to the nature of his work and writings.

The search of the property intensified last week, leading teams to remove sections of walls and flooring to locate the safe. On Thursday, October 15, forensic teams uncovered bones in the backyard, prompting the intervention of the Philadelphia Medical Examiner’s Office. Authorities are currently working to identify the remains and determine if they are linked to the missing persons cases. It remains unknown what, if anything, is inside the recovered safe, as the investigation continues to process the scene.
