A second Windsor man is facing charges in connection with the disappearance and suspected homicide of a Leeton woman.

Prosecutors in Henry County have charged 39-year-old Colby Dean Eisel with abandonment of a corpse. Sheriff’s deputies accuse Eisel of helping another defendant, identified in a separate case as 70-year-old Billy Ray Tabor, bury the body of a woman on Tabor’s property west of Windsor. Eisel had told deputies in neighboring Johnson County that he arrived at Tabor’s property the morning of March 28 to find Tabor pacing back and forth near the deceased woman’s body. Eisel went on to say that Tabor had called him down to a lower portion of property near a body of water, where the two are alleged to have buried the woman. During questioning last week, deputies say Eisel led them to the site, where deputies say they discovered the body.

Forensic processing is continuing; however, the Henry County Sheriff’s Office says they believe the body to be that of 43-year-old Janice Cook of Leeton. Cook had last been seen March 27 and was the subject of a missing persons report April 9. Deputies say that one of the final known contacts from Cook’s cell phone was to Tabor.

Eisel alleged that Tabor had forced him at gunpoint to move Cook’s vehicle, but detectives say that Eisel’s knowledge of events and involvement suggest that he knowingly participated in a crime. Deputies arrested Eisel on Friday, where he was charged with abandonment of a corpse. He’s being held on $250,000 cash-only bond, with an initial appearance scheduled for Tuesday, May 5.

Meanwhile, Tabor entered an initial plea of not guilty Friday to charges of first-degree murder and abandonment of a corpse. He remains held without bond; a bond hearing is scheduled for Tuesday afternoon.
