An Exclusive Interview
A chilling tale of a murder investigation in Tarzana unfolded when a group of day laborers discussed their involvement in moving trash bags believed to contain body parts.
Horrifying Discovery
The laborers revealed in an exclusive interview with NBC4 that they were hired by Samuel Haskell, the suspect in the murder case, to remove three large trash bags from his garage. They were paid $500 and told that the bags were filled with rocks. However, when they picked up the bags, they realized that the contents felt like meat.
The Shocking Truth
Upon examining the bags, the workers discovered soft and soggy materials weighing around 50 pounds each. They decided to take a closer look, only to find what appeared to be body parts, including a belly button. The workers were concerned and felt deceived.
Unveiling the Deception
After their gruesome discovery, the laborers returned to Haskell’s home and left the bags on the driveway, refusing to be part of the situation any longer. They recounted how Haskell tried to dismiss the body parts as Halloween props, but they knew the truth.
Struggling for Justice
The men decided to report the incident, but their efforts were met with resistance at two different law enforcement agencies. Despite the challenges, they took the moral high ground and pursued justice, fearing for their own safety.
Shocking Revelations
The gruesome discovery led to Haskell’s arrest, and additional findings at his home hinted at a murder scene. Moreover, Haskell’s wife and her parents were reported missing, further compounding the mystery surrounding the case.
Children’s Safety
On a somewhat positive note, the elementary-aged children residing in the home were confirmed to be safe and under the care of the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services, away from potential harm.
Ongoing Investigation
