Found Deceased OK - Talina Galloway, 53, Wagoner, 7 April 2020 *Arrest*

[Skylarlove18]

So I have a few questions.

There were stains in the bedroom and garage that could have been cleaned up blood?
Are we sort of waiting on the findings/results(?) of the house and cargo trailer being processed by OSBI?

Also, the searches on Kore’s phone about how to get blood out of cement and wood. Could that be the garage floor and the cargo trailer floor perhaps?

 

[Skylarlove18]

I lived in Wagoner, OK for many years. Both women look very familiar.

Nooooo! While I knew it might turn out this way, it’s still so sad!
I am so happy though that it was clearly homicide with evidence in order to arrest and prosecute, so happy to also hear that’s all they needed for the arrest warrant.
JUSTICE IS COMING, TALINA!!!

Woman's arrest comes after former roommate's remains found in freezer

“The witness said she smelled a foul odor from a trailer and "saw thick liquid" coming from the truck.

However police never followed up with the witness, Elliott said.

But then on January 14, the same witness saw a freezer, smelled a foul odor and again called authorities.

They searched the freezer and found "dismembered" human remains, later confirmed to be Galloway.”

The sheriff in Wagoner County had named Galloway’s roommate, identified as Kore Bommeli, as a person of interest in the case by June. Bommeli was in custody at that time for multiple charges but later posted bond.

After the discovery of the body, prosecutors in Oklahoma issued arrest warrants for Bommeli for first-degree murder and abuse of a corpse. She was arrested Thursday in Dane County, Wisconsin, where she is currently in custody awaiting extradition back to Oklahoma.

In a statement, Polk County Sheriff D. Scott Sawyer said he was glad to help investigators in Oklahoma find answers in their case.

“The Wagoner Oklahoma Sheriff’s Office has been working very hard on this case since last summer. They’ve done a great job and I am very happy that we could help them close out this tragic case and bring those responsible to justice,” he said.

My jaw dropped to the floor when I came across this while reading my local news!

Deputies with the Polk County Sheriff’s Office responded to the scene north of Acorn after getting reports of the freezer being found abandoned in a wooded area.

What’s crazy to me is that it was found by the same witness who months ago reported a possibly bloody trailer? What’s going on in that spot, how might they be related?

Amazing to see this case finally resolved. Sometimes we just need to be patient. I always seem to want swifter justice.

Woman charged with killing, dismembering roommate, claiming she’d left amid COVID-19 fears

Jan 26
Bommeli, who had relocated to Dane County, Wisconsin, has been charged with first-degree murder and desecration of a human corpse. She remained in the Dane County Jail on Tuesday, awaiting extradition to Oklahoma to face the charges.


Wagoner County District Attorney Jack Thorp said during a news conference Fridaythat the crime was one of the worst he’s experienced.

“Talina Galloway died a brutal death, where her killer had no regard for her life in any way,” Thorp said. “While all murders are abhorrent and detestable, the grisly manner in which Galloway was dismembered and disposed of makes this case one of the worst I have seen in my career.”


The sheriff said investigators’ hearts go out to Galloway’s family.

“They are certainly in our prayers,” he said.


A news conference can be watched on the link above.

My prediction is that as the case unfolds, we will find that Talina was murdered in the rear bedroom, and the dismembering took place in the garage. The murder weapon, I think, will be the firearm that Kore claimed Talina left with but was actually in her possession.
Woman charged with killing, dismembering roommate, claiming she’d left amid COVID-19 fears

 

[imstilla.grandma]

Talina Galloway has been missing since April 7, 2020, after a Facebook post on her page stated that she believed she had COVID-19, but that she would not go to the hospital. Instead, the post continued, she would take some time away to deal with it. Friends and family said that the post was out of character and that they do not believe Talina would just walk away without contacting anyone. The last contact anyone actually had with Talina was on March 27, investigators said. Her purse and wallet were left at home. Her car was still in the driveway. In June, Talina’s roommate, Kore Bommeli, was named a person of interest. Sheriff Elliott said that Bommeli, who reported her missing on April 17, faces charges of possession of a firearm after a felony conviction, destruction of evidence, obstruction, fraud, and larceny. In November, Wagoner County investigators discovered that Bommeli had been selling Talina’s property while she was missing, including one of Talina’s registered vehicles, a 2007 Dodge Ram truck, that she took to a metal scrap yard. Bommeli was arrested and charged with Felony Fraud and Felony Embezzlement against Talina Galloway. Talina is described as 5’7” tall and about 200 pounds. She has a distinct tattoo of a sun symbol on her right wrist. If you have any information about Talina’s whereabouts, call the Wagoner County Sheriff's Office at 918-485-3124.

Wagoner County woman pleads not guilty to murdering, dismembering roommate

March 19
Kore Bommeli was charged with murdering and dismembering her roommate pleaded not guilty to the charges during an arraignment hearing at the Wagoner County Courthouse.

Bommeli was arrested Jan. 21 in Dane County, Wisconsin, and extradited to Oklahoma by Wagoner County authorities on Feb. 3.

“The investigation into the disappearance (of) Talina Galloway was a very tedious and exhaustive investigation,” Wagoner County Sgt. Jeff Halfacre said in a release. “Virtually every member of our investigative division worked around the clock, traveling to multiple jurisdictions across multiple states, during a global pandemic, navigating difficult investigative barriers, to solve this terrible crime.”

Bommeli’s attorney Janet Bickel-Hutson said she is already mounting a defense against the charges.

...

Once Bommeli became a person of interest in the case, she reportedly stopped cooperating with authorities.

Around the same time, Bommeli was also arrested in Wagoner County on complaints of destruction of evidence, illegal weapons possession and embezzlement related to the use of Galloway’s credit cards and bank account. She posted a $150,000 bond relating to those charges on June 16 and a hearing had been set for March 2021.

Bickel-Hutson indicated that she would seek to combine the earlier charges with the charges presented Friday.

State officials also requested Friday that Bommeli be denied bond in the case, though Bickel-Hutson indicated she would be filing a motion to set bond with the court.

Bommeli’s preliminary hearing is set for 8 a.m. April 7 at the Wagoner County Courthouse.
