Man accused of killing parents, hiding bodies in septic tanks indicted

Submitted Photo by NY State Police in Elbridge

ELBRIDGE, N.Y. (AP) - A 27-year-old central New York man accused of killing his parents has been indicted on multiple charges.

Joseph Bisesi III is charged with one count of first-degree murder, two counts of second-degree murder, criminal use of a firearm and criminal weapon possession.

Police say Bisesi shot his parents -- Joseph and Jo Ellen Bisesi -- multiple times in their Elbridge home back in July. They say he then tried to hide his parents' bodies in a septic tank outside their home. A relative later found the father's torso stuck in the tank's standpipe - his arms and legs cut off so the body would fit in the hole.

Bisesi turned himself into investigators. He was indicted by a grand jury Thursday.

Wow, talk about scary. Geeze, things like this are worse than horror movies! Sick! The guy deserves to show repetance to God and THEN get the death chair.

Death penalty?? Oh wait. I forgot that this is a politically correct day and age, and that we would rather imprison him for life and keep him alive and pay for his housing clothing,food and full medical coverage with our taxes. My bad.

he looks just as innocent as that 13 year old to me. Have a little sympathy for this poor fellow. he was probably abused, and has some mental history too. What's fair is fair. send him to Family Court instead where the sentences aren't as strict. He looks like he's just a little lost thats all.

The pure evil in this situation is unreal. You look at his photo and just stare in disbelief--this kind of evil does exist and will strike and disregard even the most personal of human ties: parent and child. Hie judgement will be awaiting him, that I am sure.
