Brother of tourist killed in N Miami asks for help
NORTH MIAMI, Fla. (AP) – The brother of an aspiring 26-year-old model killed in North Miami is pleading for anyone with information about the case to contact authorities.
Paula Sladewski went missing Jan. 3, and her charred body was found in a trash bin later that day. She was visiting from California with her boyfriend.
The body was so badly burnt Sladewski had to be identified by dental records.
Surveillance video shows her leaving a club as others come and go. Her brother, Thomas Bussell, said Tuesday on NBC’s “Today” someone must’ve seen something, and they should call the police.
Bussell believes Sladewski was stalked by someone in the club and abducted outside.
She was alone because her boyfriend left earlier for the hotel.
