Human remains belonging to multiple people have been discovered at a property in San Diego, California, formerly occupied by Dwight William Rhone.
Rhone, 74, has been named as a person of interest in connection with the ongoing investigation at the residence in the Southcrest neighbourhood.
The grisly discovery was made by FBI agents, California Highway Patrol, and San Diego Police Department during a cold case homicide investigation, executing a warrant at the address.
Rhone was arrested in December 2023 for the murder of Bernardo Moreno, whose body was found in a burned-out car, and has a lengthy criminal history with at least 33 prior offences.
Current residents of the property were temporarily relocated while investigators continue to work with the Medical Examiner’s Office to identify the remains and determine the cause of death.
