Sheila Von Weise Mack was last seen alive on Monday when an argument she had with her daughter was captured by surveillance cameras in the lobby of the St. Regis Hotel in Denpasar, Bali A Chicago woman vacationing in Indonesia was killed -- her body stuffed inside a suitcase earlier this week -- and her daughter and another man were arrested.
The body of 62-year-old Sheila Von Weise Mack was discovered on Tuesday in a suitcase in the back of a taxi, parked at the prestigious St. Regis Hotel in Denpasar.
Mack's daughter, Heather Lois, 19, and another man, 21-year-old Tommy Schaffer, were arrested on Wednesday in connection with the death. Both were questioned but refused to talk until being joined by attorneys.
Denpasar police chief Djoko Hari Utomo told local media that Von Weise Mack and her daughter had been staying at the hotel for several days before Schaffer joined them. Surveillance cameras later recorded Von Weise Mack and Schaffer arguing in the hotel lobby, The Daily Mail reported.
The morning after that argument, Lois and Schaffer checked out of the hotel and took a large suitcase out to a taxi stand. The pair then went back into the hotel and snuck out through the back of the resort.
After a two-hour wait, the taxi driver was instructed by hotel personnel to drive to the police station. Authorities there opened the suitcase and found Von Weise Mack's body. "The body was wrapped in a hotel bedsheet and tied up with duct tape," said Inspector Djoko, according to The Daily Mail. "There were blood stains all over the sheet."
Utomo said Lois and Schaffer were tracked down and arrested while they slept at a hotel in the Legian tourist area.
A doctor who performed an examination on Von Weise Mack's body said there were defensive wounds.
John Johnson, a spokesman for the United States Embassy in Jakarta, said the State Department was "aware of the death of an American citizen that took place in Bali and we understand that two individuals have been arrested in connection with the case." All questions were deferred to the Balinese police. Officials from the St Regis Bali resort released a statement saying personnel was aware of the incident and was assisting authorities during the investigation.
An August 2006 Chicago Tribune report on the death of composer/producer James Mack identified his wife as Sheia A. von Wiese and his daughter as Heather.
Another one................you know the drill...........
Love of money: the root of all evil.
And that was written 2000 year ago.................
Seven deadly sins: pride (the first and root of all the others), anger, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, sloth.
We haven't changed an iota in 2000 years.
We haven't changed an iota in 2000 years.
Sure we have. We've made them cultural imperatives.....................
62 - 19 = 43.
By 43, Mom must’ve been running short on good quality eggs...
or she raised a spoiled brat..........................
Every libtard I’ve ever known exhibits at least six of the seven.
My opinion: those sins transcend EVEN to conservatives. However, it's only my tiny little opinion.
Hmm, the seven deadly liberal sins. Nope, never heard them described that way.
Other sins OUGHT to be "boring as heck," "broken record" and, possibly "too stupid to live."
Now THEY could be labeled as "liberal sins," but THAT would be un-Christian, wouldn't it? :o)
Lol.
Abraham Lincoln said: human behavior can be modified to some extent but human nature cannot be changed.
I don't BELIEVE that he added a caveat for liberals, but I don't know my "Lincoln quotes" as well as I might.
Fifth Amendment rights in Indonesia? Who knew?
Anger? I hope that excludes righteous anger! If you're not angry about abortion, terrorism and the looming progressive takeover and loss of rights, you're not paying attention!
He was right.
Human nature is essentially animalistic, but with the ‘knowledge of good and evil’ capable of deciding upon the actions.
An animal has no evil in it’s nature, it reacts without thinking of the consequences, for its own survival and the survival of its kind.
Humans can choose, whereas animals are like programmed robots than react to situations according to their programming................
I hear the airlines are now charging a double-baggage fee for that.
Yeah, it’s called a ‘Dead Weight’ Fee.....................
If she had killed her mother in Chicago, she probably never be caught. They are arresting very few perps.
PLUS Illinois has abolished the Death Penalty. Indonesia uses their quite regularly........................
