Sheriff’s deputies on Saturday searched the apartment of a high school classmate of Cutts, looking for pillows, a bed sheet, a cell phone, cleaning supplies and other evidence in the case, The Repository in Canton reported Saturday, citing a search warrant signed by Stark County Common Pleas Judge John Haas.

An inventory of the search showed three cell phones, Lysol and Clorox cleaning solution bottles, three empty bottles of Febreze fabric freshener, garbage bags and a partial roll of duct tape were removed by deputies from the home, the newspaper reported.

UPDATE: Here is one opinion from a reader LB that was sent by email:

I dont get it. I really dont. Am I sorry that a young pregnant woman and her baby have been murdered? YES! BUT..is it NEWS? um…..no..it isnt. It simply IS NOT.

Things like this happen when you put yourself in this position. This is a young woman who made ALL the wrong choices. And now she and her children have paid the ultimate price. I DO NOT BLAME THE VICTIM. Not in the least, but, should we not also be sending a message about personal choice? IF this young woman had not insisted on getting pregnant (TWICE over several YEARS by the SAME MAN)then might she be alive today? Think we will see this angle covered? I doubt it. I think we send the WRONG message by covering this event without getting into this area. I know it is sensitive and touchy but still it IS relevant.
