Investigators also are trying to determine what happened to Mary Rose Mikulak, an elderly relative who reportedly lived with the D’Onofrios and has not been seen in several years.
Mikulak, who has been described in search warrants as Linasheri D’Onofrio’s mother or grandmother, is presumed dead, investigators say.
Mikulak, who would be about 100 now, has not been seen by relatives in many years. Family members from New Jersey hired a private investigator in 2011 to find her, but with no success.
Investigators have not been able to locate death records for Mikulak’s or any human remains.
Investigators say Mikulak may have been introduced to neighbors as Mary Genovese or Mary D’Onofrio, while Linasheri D’Onofrio also used several names, including Layla McCool and Layla Genovese.
Plains remains identified as disabled man, 24; elderly relative still missing, presumed dead | Times Leader
Remains Found in Plains Township Shed IdentifiedDNA testing was done on those remains discovered during a shed fire in Plains Township at the East Mountain Ridge mobile home park back in February.
They have been identified as those of Shain D’Onofrio, 24.
Shain, who had some disabilities, is the missing son of Linasheri D’Onofrio who lives in a trailer next to where the remains were found.
The investigation also revealed Mary Mikulak, the grandmother of Linasheri D’Onofrio, has been missing since 2011.
Officials believe her to be deceased and are actively searching for her remains.
So far, no arrest has been made in either of the cases but Linasheri Donofrio, who was mentioned in a search warrant, is scheduled to be in court Friday for unrelated charges in Luzerne County.
