I cant help but wonder how these poor people really ended up in a septic tank. I mean this doesnt strike me as an open and close case with a family member being the culprit. In todays world there are much better places and methods one would hide bodies . I suspect a supernatural element to this one and would encourage any able members to investigate.

Rhode Island -- Police have found the bodies of a missing Rhode Island couple in a septic tank in their yard.

Sixty-year-old James Grotto Sr. and 53-year-old Martina Grotto had last been seen at the beginning of the month. They were reported missing by family members July 15 after they missed a family reunion.

Police went to the couple's house on Saturday and excavated the yard with a backhoe.

Police removed two body bags with their remains, along with several bags of dirt.

The Providence Journal reported that a family member has been arrested, but no one has been charged. Authorities did not elaborate.
State police did not return phone messages
