Police remove a body from a home after discovering two decapitated people.
Rosario Miraglia, 31, called police after emerging from his grandmother's two-story home covered in blood, said county prosecutor John Kaye.
When police entered the home they discovered the bodies of 87-year-old Julia Miraglia and 31-year-old Leigh L. Martinez.
Officials said Martinez was the mother of Miraglia's child and lived with the older woman.
A carving knife and a meat cleaver were found on the first floor next to the grandmother's body.
"It's one of the more disturbing (crime) scenes I've seen," said police detective Lt. Antonio Amodio.
Miraglia was charged with two counts of murder and was being held in lieu of $2 million bail.
"We know the who, the what, the where and the how. We don't know the why," Kaye said.
WTH?
