MANCHESTER – The body of a missing city woman was found Sunday night hidden behind a fake wall in a closet of her own apartment at 169A Calef Road, authorities said.

Sue Hutchinson, 57, had been missing since Sept. 30 as was her roommate, Stephen Andrade, 36. Six days later, Andrade was found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound in a Motel 6 room in Tewskbury, Mass.

In announcing the discovery of Hutchinson's body, New Hampshire Attorney General Joseph Foster and Manchester Police Chief Nick Willard said statements made by Andrade shortly before he killed himself indicated he'd killed Hutchinson, concealed her body and fled.



On Sunday, police detectives and firefighters went to 169A Calef Road after members of Hutchinson's family reported a strange odor in the building.

They searched various areas throughout the building before detectives eventually found a crawl space hidden behind a false wall panel inside a closet in Hutchinson's apartment. They removed the wall panel in that closet and discovered a woman's body, believed to be Hutchinson's, concealed inside.

A positive identification will not be made until after an autopsy Tuesday.

Hutchinson's daughter reportedly dated Andrade, but had ended their relationship. Andrade, however, continued on as Hutchinson's roommate. Four last names remained listed on the apartment mailbox Monday
