Both students were last seen on the University of South Florida campus.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Suspect Charges<\/strong>: Limon\u2019s roommate, Hisham Abugharbieh, has been charged with Limon\u2019s murder and is also suspected in Bristy\u2019s disappearance. Abugharbieh\u2019s pretrial detention hearing is scheduled for Tuesday.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Incriminating Details<\/strong>: Evidence includes multiple stab wounds on Limon\u2019s body, a deep wound to his lower back that penetrated his liver, and allegations that Abugharbieh asked disturbing questions to an AI chatbot days prior to the victims&#8217; disappearance.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Suspect\u2019s Actions<\/strong>: During police interviews, Abugharbieh denied knowledge of the victims but was contradicted by the location of his car and his conflicting statements. He was found with a self-inflicted wrist wound and the receipt of items linked to hiding evidence at a CVS.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Evidence Discovery<\/strong>: Investigators found blood-stained items including a shirt and mat resembling those missing from the scene, in a dumpster near Abugharbieh\u2019s apartment, and evidence of blood inside Abugharbieh&#8217;s shared apartment.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Legal Proceedings<\/strong>: Abugharbieh faces several charges including first-degree premeditated murder, unlawful moving of a dead body, tampering with evidence, and battery.
