Written by City News Service - A woman described today how she found the body of
her aunt, who had been stabbed and bound in plastic in an apartment building in
South Los Angeles.
   Crystal Spradley said she had gone looking for her aunt, 45-year-old
Wanda Threadgill, after not hearing from her for two weeks.
   Spradley said she and her boyfriend broke down the door of her aunt's
apartment in the 9500 block of South Western Avenue, around 11 a.m. Tuesday and
found her body in a bedroom.
   ``She was wrapped, beat, crated up like she was trash,'' added
Threadgill's daughter, Mayisha Montgomery. ``She had friends, good family and
job, people who loved her.''
    Spradley said Threadgill had four children and four grandchildren, but
that she was drawn to ``dysfunctional men.''
   ``She never did drugs or nothing. She didn't deserve this. She just
wanted to be loved,'' Spradley said.
   Spradley and Montgomery both spoke in telephone interviews.
   Spradley said Threadgill was to have turned 45 on Dec. 4, and she began
looking for her on that day.
   ``I've been looking for her ever since her birthday, and never thought
to open the door'' of her apartment until tuesday, Spradley said.
    Spradley said she had been able to crack her aunt's cellphone voice
mail and discovered she had not been going to her job as a security guard.
   ``I got that eerie feeling, and I knew something was wrong,'' Spradley
said. ``I kept hoping and praying it was natural causes.''
    Los Angeles Police Department Detective Chris Barling said Threadgill's
death is being investigated as a homicide. LOUDLABS NEWS
