As police and fire crews began tearing into the house of convicted-rapist turned possible serial killer, Anthony Sowell, two victims who escaped his house of horrors speak out.
Tanja Doss, 43, told reporters that she was attacked by Sowell in 2005. At the time, Sowell had just been released from prison for rape.
Doss claims that Sowell invited her over for some drinking, and then strangled her and made her strip. She managed to escape, but did not call authorities because the confessed convicted drug addict was afraid they wouldn’t take her seriously.
Another woman, Gladys Wade, told reporters that Sowell attacked her on the street and dragged her into his house last December. She claims he also tried to strangle her, but she escaped by gouging his face.
Police went to Sowell’s house last Thursday to investigate a rape charge. Police didn’t find their suspect, but instead discovered badly decomposed bodies inside. A search by police inside and outside of the house eventually found a total of 11 bodies, all African-American women.
