Suspect denies killing; police hint at lie tests

Moundsville, West Virginia - In a bizarre case, a man has denied involvement in the death and entombing of two residents of this town. Harold Mauss faces two counts of murder in the deaths of William and Susan Coester. Mauss said he built a tomb in the basement of the Coester’s house, but also claims that Mr. Coester shot his wife in November. The arrest warrant stated that after leaving the residence, Mauss returned to the Coester’s home and buried the bodies in the basement. Police are trying to sort out the details and said they are pursuing multiple suspects. They also may need to use lie detector tests to get to the bottom of the case.
