Former classmate reacts to person of interest in severed leg investigation

A woman in Waukesha County was shocked to hear a former high school classmate was arrested in connection to the homicide investigation around a human leg found in Cudahy.

“I almost fell to the floor because I was in disbelief,” Tara said. She did not wish to share her last name out of fear for her safety, but said she went to high school with the man.

The man, who owns a house at 39th and Oklahoma connected to the homicide investigation, is expected to go through court on Tuesday.

TMJ4 is not naming the man at this time as he has not been criminally charged.

TMJ4's Ryan Jenkins learned through booking records that the man, who lives in the upper unit of the home, is being held in the Milwaukee County Jail.

Multiple agencies including police and SWAT were seen going into the home on April 4. That's after the Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office said a leg was found in Cudahy on April 2.
