Death of worker at treatment plant ruled a homicide The Associated Press
PATERSON, N.J. - A woman whose body was found in a tank at a water treatment plant drowned and her death has been ruled a homicide, the Passaic County prosecutor said Monday.
Geetha Angara had been doing water quality tests Wednesday when she disappeared. A search found her body about 100 feet from where she was working, but her two-way radio and clipboard were found directly below the work area, which had a protective grate to prevent falls, Prosecutor James F. Avigliano said.
"That was where we think the woman was either pushed or shoved into this opening," Avigliano said. Water flow in the tank probably contributed to movement of her body, but did not have much effect on the smaller, denser items, he said.
The regional medical examiner made the homicide determination, which detectives agreed with, he said. The examiner also found the cause of death to be drowning, he said.
Investigators last week began interviewing all 85 employees working at the plant, and all will eventually be interviewed, Avigliano said.

I hope that they did not spend a lot of money on coming up with this... duh
Call Steven Quayle, George Noory, and Art Bell.
Ping
Jersey Jihadists at it again?
BTTT.
call Monk
They'll be all over this.
Start investing in the parent company of reynolds wrap, because the aluminum foil will be put on thick tonight.
Any word on that family of four converted x-muzlims?
Who knows...........btw the news said that Geetha had limited movement withe one her arms from bursitis and that her arm was in a sling.
So she was pretty defenseless against whomever killed her.
The homicide does seem to have a Monkish quality about it...
The family of the murdered Coptic Christians is having a press conference tomorrow in D.C.
Haven't heard any new news on the case otherwise.
WOW! Maybe we should call Monk, or Columbo, or Sherlock Holmes.
I was really thinking this was an accidental death. The idea this woman was murdered is very disturbing.
Does your local news report state if the water has been re-tested? Like maybe whoever killed her did so to stop her from doing the test because maybe the killer(s) added something to the water that they don't want found?
I thought the latest on that was that the police believe it was a robbery? not sure, but we will never get the truth on this story - we all knew it would be buried from the start.
Coast to Coast PING!
"a financial motive". sure:

No it didn't mention on the news if the water has been retested.
But dear friends of mine live in Passaic Cty. so they're finding out themselves.
Will post if I hear anything.
Steven Quayle is posting mysterious deaths of scientist that have happened in last few months on his website, but I cannot link it. The administrator does not want anything posted from his website.
Would you know why??
check your freepmail
Thanks for the post. Interesting/disturbing.
the problem is Paterson is not very clean.
Thanks! I understand now. I had no idea.
A close friend also disclosed late last week that Hossam Armanious spent two to three days searching for the deposed Bishop of Luxor during a trip to Egypt this past summer. Armanious found him in a monastery in the desert.
"Hossam spent one day with the exiled bishop," said the friend, Rafique Iscandar, who is also the president of the American Coptic Union. "When Sam lived there, he used to help him in the church. The bishop would call and say, 'Hossam, can you help us?' and Hossam would help."
The FBI has gone to Egypt to investigate, said DeFazio, adding that authorities want to know about the family's travel habits. It wasn't known whether Armanious' trip or visit with the bishop had any connection to the homicides.

OMG, I can't believe their implying that the Armanious' were secretly wealthy !
Its almost like their trying to cast aspersions upon th evictims and say hey the dead family was at fault fo rhaving ill gotten gains or something !
They lived in a very modest home in Jersey City Heights.
<<"Do you think if it was financial they would not take the gold and a ring from my sister's finger?" said Ayman Garas, the dead woman's brother. "Do you think if Hossam had a lot of money he would have complained about his job not giving him enough hours?
"I mean, he never complained about money, but he wasn't rich.">>>>>
Also these killings were very PERSONAL in nature.
People who are simply trying to rob and get money/jewelry don't think hey I want to make an artistic when I murder these people.
<<<<"the victims appeared to suffer "ritualistic" injuries, including holes bored under each family member's neck, said the source, who saw photos taken of the bodies after they were released to a funeral home. The face of each victim was obscured with a bag, he said.>>>>>
Yeah I forgot that Paterson "aka Mecca West" is in Passaic Cty.
Might have something to do with Steve Quayle being an idiot kookjob.
"It took three days to find this body in the water tank."
Are you saying this was a dry (no pun) run?
Geetha (with picture) is #54 of murdered scientists since 1994 on Steve Quayles list.

Thu Feb 10, 1:35 PM ET
Contact: U.S. Copts Association, 202-737-3660 or copts@copts.com, Web: http://www.copts.com
Relatives of the slain Armanious family of four will speak at their first press conference since the brutal murders on Tuesday, Feb. 15 at 3 p.m. at the National Press Club's Zenger Room in Washington, D.C. U.S. Copts Association president Michael Meunier will join the Armanious family's relatives in addressing the investigation's status and expressing the family's point of view on the horrific crime. The family will also address erroneous reports circulated by some national and foreign media outlets. The family will be joined by friends of the Coptic-American community, including representatives of NGOs and human rights organizations.
Coming up with what???
I walked guard on a water tower at Ft. Bragg during the Cuban Crisis.
What with all the jokes folks....a women Geetha Angara was murdered.....are your hearts so hard it just anohter funtime for you?
Bump
Guess some are confusing FR with the Yahoo message baords.
call Monk
No, call Columbo, he won't be scared of the dirty water.
Ooookkkkk....guess common decency is hard to come by for some of you!

The prosecutor says that everybody is a suspect. Sheriff's deputies are patroling the plant today and employees are being paired up in order to make sure everyone stays safe, but investigators say they believe this may have been an inside job.
James Avigliano, Passaic Co. Prosecutor: "The interviews are being conducted. The only benefit that we have here is that there is a limited number of people who were present at the time that this event occurred."
Geetha Angara apparently had gone down to a remote section of the plant to calibrate a machine and to take a water sample. Her body was found about 24 hours after that, but again police now say this was not an accident - that this was murder.
the 'joke' isn't about her - it's about all the tinfoil people who lump in every death of anybody remotely related with chemistry / biology as part of some sinister plot by some unknown forces.
I am not joking. I am dead serious about this poor woman's murder. There may be a connection to one of the many terrorist nests in New Jersey.
She may have died preventing a Jihadist from poisoning the water there.
I've read some freeper's "statistical analysis" of it back when there were 11 microbiologist deaths within 5 months.
They used the number of microbiologists in the general US population and the death rate among all citizens and 'deduced' that the 11 deaths in 5 months was too high to be coincidental.
They also failed to admit (or read) that some of the deaths happened in russia, england, australia, etc. Thus rendering their thorough statistical analysis based on THE US POPULATION OF MICROBIOLOGISTS completely and totally worthless.
Of course, they seemed to gloss over that fact. It would reduce the shock value of their 'statistics'.
It was bad enough when it was microbiologists. Now it's almost any type of scientist or even people in school studying science. Soon it will be that if you own a lab coat and end up dead, Art bell, george noory, alex jones, and every other crackpot with an audience to entertain will gleefully use your death to advance their careers and captivate their audience.
It's pathetic and sickening.
They were Coptic Christians. As far as I know, they were never Muslimes.
The FBI is finally getting around to interviewing their relatives.

I wonder if the sling was the result of a warning.
Shep just pointed out that someone's probably paired up with the murderer.
