Investigators say the 28-year-old Bucks County man placed diluted fentanyl in his mother's drink before taking her to a shed in Philadelphia, where he fatally shot her and locked her body inside.
According to the Bucks County DA's Office, the woman, later identified as Carol J. Clark, was allegedly murdered by her son, 28-year-old Sean Rivera of Falls Township.
Detectives learned that Rivera told his brother, who lives in New York, that their mother died, but when his brother arrived to Pennsylvania, he would not tell his brother where the mother was, authorities say. According to the DA's Office, two firearms, a padlock, an empty padlock package and a Home Depot receipt were found inside the car with a set of bolt cutters.
While Clark was lethargic from the fentanyl, Rivera placed her in her vehicle and drove her to a shed on Waln Street between 2 a.m. and 3 a.m. on Sunday morning.
