Found more details about 26 year old Adaobi
Michella Obih who was found dead on

Police were alerted to Obih’s death after
she missed work Monday and Tuesday
without notifying anyone. Concerned
coworkers contacted her apartment
complex to ask about her. Police also
contacted the property manager to
request a welfare check, according to the
arrest affidavit.
A maintenance worked went to check on
the woman and said, “It’s not good, there
is blood everywhere” after going to Obih’s
apartment.
A neighbor said he noticed that the door
to Obih’s garage spot was open and had
been open for at least 24 hours. Klug,
who police described as Obih’s
roommate, parked his vehicle there.
The maintenance worker told police there were
no signs of forced entry at the apartment and
that only two people would’ve had keys: Obih
and Klug. The maintenance worker told police
he found Obih with a “large amount of blood
around her head” and said it appeared clear
that she was dead.
Police talked to Obih’s boyfriend, who revealed
that he’d texted and called her multiple times
but never heard back. The last message he
received from her was at 12:17 p.m. on
Sunday, Nov. 17. When she failed to respond,
he went to her apartment, saw her car in the
parking lot and knocked on the door. Obih
didn’t answer.
A neighbor who lives in the apartment below
Obih’s said it sounded like someone was
moving furniture during Sunday afternoon. “It
went on for more than three minutes,” the
neighbor said, adding that it happened shortly
before tornado warnings went off for Sunday’s
storms.
Police said Klug had texted a pastor asking
him to call. When the pastor did so, Klug
answered and said he couldn’t talk at the
time.
Further investigation found that Obih had been
stabbed multiple times and her throat cut. A
blood trail went from the woman’s bedroom to
Klug’s, and police said it appeared “the
assailant attempted to clean up in the
bathroom area belonging to Mr. Klug.” They
also found a bloody towel in Klug’s sink.
Police located a plastic bag containing a
bloody sock and other clothes stained with
blood, including blue jeans, boxers and a
shirt. Police said the “amount of blood on
these items was significant.”
Police found a trail of small blood drops
leading from the apartment to the garage
where Klug parked his vehicle. His 2008 silver
Subaru Legacy was not parked in the garage.
Klug works for the Indiana Department of
Transportation, and police contacted his
supervisor, who told them Klug’s behavior had
been “off” lately. He sent a text message
Sunday saying, “sick tomorrow, then vacation
next two weeks.” His supervisor said the
message was out of character and also
violated the department’s vacation time
policy. Klug did not return texts or phone
calls, his supervisor said. He didn’t show up
at work Monday or Tuesday.
Klug’s stepmother and father said they hadn’t
heard from him for several days.
His brother told police he’d spoken with Klug
about two weeks ago. Klug wanted to get back
with a girl he’d dated. The relationship ended
about a year ago. His brother told Klug to call
her; he said Klug discovered she was dating
someone else and told him, “I’m losing
