GENEVA \u2014 Ontario County District Attorney Jason MacBride confirmed Monday morning that a man sought in connection with the death of Emmanuel Richelieu, 37, of Farmington, has been charged with murder.<\/p>\n
Julius Ware, 29, was arrested on a murder charge Sunday, McBride said.<\/p>\n
According to booking information from the Ontario County Sheriff\u2019s Office, Ware was on parole.<\/p>\n
During a media briefing Sunday morning, Sheriff David Cirencione said the sheriff\u2019s office received a call just before 11 p.m. Friday night from the brother of Richelieu, 37, who lodged a missing-person report while telling police there was an app on his sibling\u2019s phone indicating he was at the America’s Best Value Inn on Hamilton Street.<\/p>\n
Police were dispatched to that location, Cirencione said, at which point they interviewed the brother and began a search and canvass of the area. They eventually found Richelieu\u2019s phone, but not him.<\/p>\n
\u201cBased on the circumstances, we believed this to be suspicious,\u201d Cirencione said.<\/p>\n
Cirencione said the search continued into Saturday, with drones and K9s, including a bloodhound, brought in to assist. The sheriff said the bloodhound made a positive identification outside Room 118, at which point police knocked on the door and received no answer. Upon entering the room, officers found a deceased male.<\/p>\n
Police later identified the male as Richelieu.<\/p>\n
Cirencione said there was significant trauma to the body, which was taken to the Monroe County Medical Examiner\u2019s office for an autopsy.<\/p>\n
Cirencione said Room 118 was registered to Ware; the sheriff said it is Ware\u2019s residence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"GENEVA \u2014 Ontario County District Attorney Jason MacBride confirmed Monday morning that a man sought in connection with…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":7516,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[7],"tags":[1655,3277,10322,10321,65,10320,12206,3279,3278],"class_list":["post-52069","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-geneva","tag-crime","tag-crimes","tag-criminal-justice","tag-criminal-law","tag-geneva","tag-law-enforcement","tag-murder","tag-violence","tag-violent-crime"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ch\/116437278213264440","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52069","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=52069"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52069\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7516"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=52069"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=52069"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=52069"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
