All right, and today is a Tuesday, January 21st. Good morning, Kathy.

Good morning. In the news this morning, a woman is now facing charges after authorities found a teen's body inside a plastic bin last week in Philadelphia. The Philadelphia Sheriff's Office and Philadelphia Police found the body of 18-year-old Erin Schweikert in the basement of the home in the 2100 block of Porter Street on January 16th. Police were serving a robbery warrant at the home, but officers were also investigating a possible case of human

trafficking. The special victims unit were looking for a missing female who was approximately

18 years old. Authorities found five people, three males and two females inside the home

before discovering the body. One of the females was listed on the warrant for not appearing

in court on a robbery charge. The female and the four others were taken

into custody on Monday. The Philadelphia District Attorney's Office confirmed that Madison

Lady is being charged with abuse of a corpse, tampering with evidence and false identification to

law enforcement officers. Lady is currently in police custody. Charges against others taken in

custody last week have not been announced at this time.

A lady has a preliminary hearing set for next month, according to sources.

At this time, Schweiger's death appears to be accidental.

Residents staying at a shelter in the brewery town section of Philadelphia say they have resorted to finding any way possible to keep themselves and their children warm as they wait for the heat to work. Residents have their children sleeping in snowsuits and jackets while they stay in the shelter in the 1,400 block of Newkirk Street. A resident has her seven-month-old sleeping in a coat that is not as thick as a snowsuit, but she says it's the best solution she has at the moment. Multiple women said that they found extreme measures to try to stay warm.

There has been no official comment from the shelter, but a maintenance worker said that the heater

was on, even pointing out that it has a new unit, but residents there disagree.

Way is an app that provides traffic conditions and directions is promising to fix,

promising a fix after some drivers who were looking for Atlantic City ended up in the woods.

Police in Jackson Township, New Jersey, put out a warning after at least 10 drivers who thought that they were headed to the Borgata Casino and Resort

Yeah, like dirt roads, man.
