Ninth body found in charred Covina home

Still no positive IDs released since the bodies were badly burned, but officials think that Bruce Pardo's ex-wife Sylvia and her parents perished in the house. Pardo had not worked since July, according to court papers filed in the divorce proceedings that concluded Dec. 18. The Times and other news outlets report that a ninth body has been discovered. LAT

Press conference: 2 p.m. at the Covina PD, 444 North Citrus Avenue.
