When officers arrived, the caller was found with a rope tied around her neck and her ankle chained to the bed. The body of another woman was found in a burning car outside the house, investigators said. According to authorities, the woman who called police said she was sexually assaulted at gunpoint after coming to the home with a friend. She said they had both been previously hired to clean the house. Investigators said Soriano used blackmail to lure the women to the house. He told the woman who was found dead in the car that he had lewd photos of her and promised to delete them if she and her friend came over. Investigators said the woman found dead in the car was also shot. The woman who survived the attack was able to call for help on Soriano's phone, which he left behind as he fled the scene. Authorities said they believed Soriano immediately fled to Mexico after the crime.
