NORTHEAST PHILADELPHIA - The Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office has approved murder charges against two people after a dismembered body was found in a U-Haul back in February.According to the prosecutors, Taray Herring, 47, and Jeanette Pace, 42, will face murder charges in connection with 70-year-old Peter Gerold’s death.
Herring was previously arrested on burglary, tampering with evidence, abuse of corpse, and related charges. Police found human remains inside a trash bag in the back of a U-Haul during a traffic stop last month.
On Monday, police received DNA results that items taken from the victim’s house compared to samples from the recovered body parts were a match.
