Resume:
Greenwood, DE- The Delaware State Police have arrested a Greenwood man in connection with the double homicide.

The investigation into this incident began at approximately 5:30 p.m. on Thursday April 26, 2012, after Troopers were called to a residence located in the 28000 block of Liden School Road in Greenwood. Concerned neighborhood residents called State Police after they had not seen the elderly couple or observed any activity from the house since Sunday, April 22, 2012. Upon arriving at the residence, Troopers attempted to make contact with the couple to check on their welfare, but received no response. Troopers then made entry into the home at which time they located the couple deceased. The couple is identified as Harvey Cashwell-76 and his wife Carolyn Cashwell-66, both of Greenwood.

Through further investigation, detectives learned that the defendant, Michael P. Emory, 32, of Greenwood had been evicted from a residence he rented from the victims approximately six month ago. On Friday April 27, 2012, Emory was apprehended at the Greenwood Inn and arrested for Theft by False Pretense after it was determined he had allegedly pawned a ring belonging to Carolyn Cashwell. He was subsequently committed to Sussex Correctional Institution on the Theft by False Pretense charge as well as a violation of probation warrant.

On Tuesday May 1, 2012, Detectives obtained a warrant charging Michael Emory with the above listed crimes. He was arraigned at JP Court 2 and is currently being held without bail at the Sussex County Correctional Institution.

This investigation is continuing.

  1. This just makes me so angry! I swear if another inmate smashed this guy's head to a bloody pulp knocking his eyeballs clear across the room, I'd pay for that inmate's defense!
