Ellwood Skillman, 50, was found shot to death in May 2016 in Arcadia, Pennsylvania after remaining undiscovered in his home for days. State police say the killing occurred while Skillman slept; investigators report the victim was shot with both a shotgun and a rifle.

Authorities identified 61-year-old David Yingling as the person responsible. Yingling reportedly confessed, telling police he had grown tired of Skillman repeatedly insulting his brother and that he entered Skillman’s upstairs bedroom and shot him. Troopers located the body at Yingling’s Montgomery Township residence after receiving a tip, and Yingling was jailed in Indiana County on a charge of criminal homicide. He reportedly said he was unsure what to do with the body.

Are there details about Skillman’s life in Arcadia or his movements in May 2016 that anyone can add?
