Shocking turn of events as grim find in New Jersey basement yields arrest of two women
earlier this week -- and neither of them currently live in the house, apparently, authorities said Wednesday.
Nicole Tsentas, a 33-year-old from Emerson, and 36-year-old Amanda Walker of Wayne were arrested Monday on charges of disturbing and desecrating human remains in connection with the grim discovery the homeowners made the prior evening. Cops were called to a home in the Passaic County township around 5:45 p.m. Sunday after the homeowners reported finding fetal remains in a storage container in their basement. The investigation that followed traced the birth back to July 2020.
According to investigators, Tsentas delivered the child at some point during that month. The baby, she said, wasn't moving or breathing so she took it home, wrapped it in a blanket and put it in her closet, authorities said she told them.
