More details have been released about the murder of Autumn Taggart, a Windsor mother who was killed in her apartment in the early morning hours of June 10th.
As you've heard on AM800, Taggart's nine-year-old son was in the apartment at the time of her murder.
According to court documents obtained by CTV News, Taggart's son Gavin told police a male he didn't know, entered his bedroom and told him to stay in bed and go to sleep.
He then heard a woman screaming but didn't get up to investigate because he was scared.
According to the documents, when the boy woke up the next morning, he saw his mother still in bed so he spent the day eating cookies and watching videos.
In the evening, he heard an alarm on her phone which meant it was time for his shower — he entered his mother's bedroom and when he couldn't wake her up, he used her phone to text his father who then came to the apartment.
Over the course of the investigation it was determined that the same male had been associating with people who lived in the same apartment building as Taggart.
The night before she was found dead, the neighbours and the male had bought drugs and gone back to the apartment at University Ave and McKay St. where they parted ways, some time between 3:30am and 4am.
The neighbour reports seeing the male's vehicle still in the apartment parking lot around 4am, again at 5:30am but when she checked again around 6:15am, it was gone.
Between June 10th and August 17th, the male suspect spent time in both Kent, Washington, where he obtained a new drivers license and Warren, Michigan.
27-year-old Jitesh Bhogal, a Canadian Citizen who lives in Michigan with ties to Washington state as well as India, was arrested near Seattle, WA on August 17th.
None of these allegations has been proven in court, either in Washington or Windsor.
