Woman didn’t know roommate was murderer
By CBS-13
A woman and her two children shared a home with a murderer and didn’t realize it until later. Now that killer is accused of striking again.
She describes him as odd, but charming and charismatic. The worst she thought was he could have been a good con man.
Joseph Nissensohn
When cops knocked on Theresa Robertson’s door years later, she thought it was because he passed a few bad checks.
She had no idea, all those years ago, that she spent six weeks with a killer.
“I was short on rent and I needed a roommate.”
She had no way of knowing that just days before Joseph Nissensohn became her roommate in South Lake Tahoe that he murdered a 46-year-old woman in Washington.
Nissensohn is being tried on murder charges in El Dorado County Superior Court in South Lake Tahoe.
