The dead body of a 62-year-old American woman, Sheila von-Weise Mack, was found in a suitcase on Tuesday afternoon.
The police are pursuing an American couple, one of whom is the victim's daughter, for allegedly killing the woman.
Police officers at South Kuta Police station were shocked when they found a woman's body in a silver suitcase brought to them by a taxi driver at around 12 midnight on Tuesday. The taxi driver took the suitcase to the police station after two foreigners left it in the trunk of his taxi.
Your comments:
I knew the victim Sheila and her daughter Heather personally. I am the same age as Heather. We grew up in the same town and were friends for years. Heather has always been a very disturbed girl with a lot of psychiatric issues.
She was extremely spoiled and would often scream and throw things until she got her way.
In 2006, Sheila and her husband were vacationing on a cruise ship when something went wrong and her husband cut his foot because of negligence.
Sheila sued the cruise ship and won a sizable amount of money. Heather became even crazier with the newly inherited millions and unfortunately I was not the least bit surprised to see Heather's name attached to the news article being rapidly shared across my Facebook feed this morning by others in my town.
I have absolutely no idea what Tommy saw in Heather, or what would bring him to participate in the murder. Tommy recently lost the love of his life. In April, Tommy's long-time girlfriend Rachel Smylie passed away in a car accident in Cape Town, South Africa.
I guess Tommy and Heather started dating after Rachel's death and I'm saddened that he got caught up in Heather's insanity.
Sheila was an incredibly nice, educated woman. She was always dressed to the nines, even while running errands.
If I close my eyes and try to visualize her, an image of Sheila wearing a fur coat and stiletto heels while shopping at the local Jewel-Osco comes to mind.
RIP
