🚨 PREGNANT WOMAN’S BODY DUMPED IN TOTE — ONE MAN SENTENCED
This is out of Middletown, Ohio, and the source here is Law & Crime, reporting on court proceedings.
One of three men accused of covering up the death of 28-year-old Brittany Fuhr-Storms has now learned his fate.
James Rothenbusch, 52, pleaded guilty to complicity to tampering with evidence and was sentenced this week to 30 months in prison.
Authorities say Brittany — who was pregnant at the time — died in a Middletown home connected to Rothenbusch and another defendant. According to Law & Crime’s reporting, her body was kept in a bathtub for four days before being wrapped in towels and a tarp, sealed inside a plastic storage tote with screws, and dumped in a wooded area in neighboring Montgomery County.
Her death has been described as an alleged overdose, though two other men — Rick Sheppard and Walter Wade — still face charges including abuse of a corpse and tampering with evidence. Their trials are scheduled for next month.
During sentencing, Rothenbusch told the court he was high on methamphetamine and “didn’t know what to do.” He apologized.
Brittany’s brother spoke as well — reminding the courtroom that instead of celebrating the birth of her baby boy and her birthday, the family was planning a funeral.
All but the complicity charge were dropped as part of Rothenbusch’s plea agreement.
This case is still unfolding.
