Arraignment set for suspect in killing of 3 Ohio women whose bodies were found in trash bags

CLEVELAND – A man faces arraignment in Cleveland on charges of killing three women whose bodies were found wrapped in trash bags.

The arraignment is scheduled Wednesday morning for 35-year-old Michael Madison. He is being held on $6 million bond.

A Cuyahoga (ky-uh-HOH'-guh) County grand jury indicted Madison on six counts of aggravated murder, two for each victim under different killing theories.

He's also charged with three counts of kidnapping, three counts of gross abuse of a corpse, one count of rape and one count of weapon possession by an ex-convict.

East Cleveland police found one body July 19 when a caller reported a foul smell coming from a garage. Two more bodies were found the next day.

County court records don't show a defense attorney for Madison.
