\"Tasmin<\/a>PHILADELPHIA \u2014<\/p>\n

Federal teams are back at the so-called “House of Horrors” in Philadelphia. <\/p>\n

Investigators have been at the property for weeks, searching both inside the home and on the property. <\/p>\n

The home has been linked to seven missing women. <\/p>\n

Last week, crews found bones buried in the backyard. It’s not clear if they are animal or human. <\/p>\n

NBC Philadelphia reporter Brian Sheehan<\/a> told News 8 that investigators also found a safe hidden inside the walls. <\/p>\n

Law enforcement told Sheehan that they found the safe when removing floors and walls of the home. <\/p>\n

The details of what’s inside the safe are still a mystery, and it’s unclear if or how it could play a role in the investigation. <\/p>\n

Retired NYPD sergeant Joseph Jackalow said investigators will most likely take the safe to a locksmith to see if they can get into it the easy way. If not, they’ll force it open. <\/p>\n

“My question is, was it sheetrocked over? Because that would also tell you about the age of it,” said Jackalow. <\/p>\n

However, Jackalow, who has worked on similar cases in the past, said the cops’ main priority is identifying the women and giving families answers about what happened. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"PHILADELPHIA \u2014 Federal teams are back at the so-called “House of Horrors” in Philadelphia.
