Chukwuebuka Nwobodo, a Nigerian residing in Houston, Texas, in the United States, has been declared wanted by the police after he was charged with murder and tampering with evidence in relation to the disappearance of Felicia Johnson, a lady he met on Snapchat in April.

According to Fox News, Nwobodo, 28, allegedly agreed to pay Johnson $500 during a Snapchat interaction for a physical “meet up” on April 16.

Investigators said Nwobodo bought a power saw, towels and trash bags after Johnson’s disappearance on April 17.

The suspect was also reported to have googled “how to be a serial killer,” “how to get away with murder,” “can bleach destroy DNA?” and the “most forested part of Houston,” during the period.

Nwobodo was first questioned when the police found a gun, gloves, a large kitchen knife and a shovel in his car on May 13. He was later released but has not been seen since then.

Johnson, 24, was reported missing on April 16, after her blood-covered phone was discovered off a roadway. Detectives later determined that Nwobodo picked up Johnson from an apartment complex and took her to his apartment — her last known location.

A Houston Police Department press release is suggesting that Nwobodo killed Johnson inside his apartment before dropping her body and personal belongings in a park.
