What is Zachariah Anderson accused of?
Zachariah Anderson is accused of murdering 40-year-old Rosalio Gutierrez Jr. with blunt force on May 17, 2020.
He has been charged with first-degree intentional homicide, a Class A felony that carries a sentence of life in prison – if convicted.
He is also charged with felonies of hiding a corpse and stalking, according to Kenosha News.
Prosecutors allege Anderson killed him because Gutierrez was having a romantic relationship with Sadie, his ex-girlfriend and mother of his children.
Who was Rosalio Gutierrez Jr?
Father-of-two Rosalio Gutierrez Jr was reported missing on May 19, 2020, after Sadie Beacham went to his apartment and found the patio door open with heavy blood stains on the floor, door and furniture.
She testified she had been trying to reach him by phone before driving to his apartment as she was worried about him.
Sadie called the police when she saw the blood stains in the apartment.
Shortly after he was reported missing, his mother Selia Patterson told Dateline: “Someone, somewhere knows something.
“He was the best son a mom could ever wish for, he was a loving father, and a very good friend.”
Gutierrez’s body has never been recovered.
Friends and family have reportedly not heard from him since.
Prosecutors have argued Gutierrez is dead based on the large amount of blood spatter found inside his apartment.
