Investigators are still actively looking for Chukwuebuka Nwobodo. If you have any information, you're asked to contact HPD's Homicide Division at 713-308-3600.
HOUSTON, Texas -- Charging documents reveal new details about how HPD were able to link a suspect to the murder of Felicia Johnson, who went missing nearly two months ago. Police believe she was dismembered and removed from Chukwuebuka Nwobodo's apartment. Her remains have not been found and investigators believe the suspect did extensive research to cover up the crime.
Using that information from Uber, they obtained leads such as Nwobodo's phone number and e-mail address. Upon searching his name in their system, HPD found his address from a November 2020 police report where he was being investigated for sexual assault. But the case was dismissed when the alleged victim declined to press charges.
Records show that on the 16th and 17th, Nwobodo bought several supplies from Walmart and Home Depot including a flashlight, shirt, gloves, saws, trash bags, and towels. In the charging documents, Sgt. B.A. Roberts wrote,"Nwobodo made multiple online searches after April 16, 2022, relative to cleaning DNA evidence, deleting digital information, missing persons investigations, and how to get away with murder.
Officers seized his cell phone and found a photo of a dismembered woman and three additional photos of deceased individuals. ABC13 is working to find out why Nwobodo was released from HPD custody during this arrest.
