Waukesha Teen lived with corpses for 2 weeks after the murder

Waukesha, Wisconsin. – Waukesha County prosecutors said a teenager lived with his mother’s bodies and stepfather for two weeks after he killed them. Nikita Casap, 17, has not yet been accused of homicide for double murders.

Prosecutors say those charges are close. For now, he faces charges of taking a vehicle without consent and robbery for taking his stepfather’s weapon. He was arrested in Kansas last week.

Casap slowly entered a Waukesha County Court Chamber on Wednesday for an initial appearance. He wore a security vest and a shackle. The vest is generally used to prevent the defendants from being injured.

Casap’s lawyer Nicolę Ostrowski reminded the court that his client is only 17 years old.

“He is young, he is still in high school,” Ostrowski said.

Despite their age, prosecutors said Casap will face first degree murder positions probably in the next two weeks.

The Waukesha County Sheriff’s department found Donald Mayer, 51, and his wife, Tatiana Casap, 35, dead at home on February 28.

The agents were called the house for a social assistance control after Mayer’s mother of Massachusetts reported that he had not heard of them in weeks. The mother was found in a hallway covered with blankets and towel, while Mayer was found in an office on the first floor.

Prosecutors said Nikita Casap had also been absent from school for two weeks.

According to the complaint, Casap was arrested in Wakeeney, Kansas, during a traffic stop. An previous emergency telephone showed Casap and one of the victims’ phones in Cheyenne, Wyoming.

Waukesha County District Prosecutor Lesli Boise said that on February 11, Casap shot her mother at least three times, in the stomach and once on her neck.

The prosecutors said that he killed his stepfather, Donald Mayer, shooting him on the back of the head. Then he went to school the next day, continuing to live at home for almost two weeks until February 23.

“The defendant continued to live in the residence with the two bodies in the house. Then he fled with the $ 14,000 in cash. We know that he was communicating with someone to put false dishes in the car to hide the car was stolen, ”said Boese.

Boese said that after the deaths, Casap was communicating with someone in Russian or Romanian. Casap is originally from Moldova, and their living relatives are mainly abroad.

“It seems that this individual was trying to flee the jurisdiction, not only this state but this country,” said Christopher Bailey, commissioner of the Waukesha County Court. “Many of these problems make the court believe that this individual had no intention of being here where he is today.”

Murder charges are not expected for another two weeks. Casap will return to court on March 24 to present a plea.
