  • Christopher Anthony Wilaby is allegedly bad at hiding bodies.

If you're going to hide a body, is a military post really the best option? I'm pretty sure for most people in the hiding bodies business, it'd be one of the last places they'd pick. But I'm no expert. I just watch Dexter every Sunday.

Apparently the spot was just right for Christopher Anthony Wilaby. The 26-year-old from Pensacola, Florida, is accused of strangling his girlfriend, Echo May Wiles, at a Junction City trailer court in August 2005, loading her body into her car, driving it to Fort Riley and running the car into Moon Lake. The car sunk and wasn't found until April 2010.



A construction worker spotted the car's antenna sticking out of the lake. Authorities had the car pulled from the lake and discovered Wiles' decomposed body in the back seat.

That's a really good way to get the feds involved. He's charged with stealing Wiles' 1997 Chevy Monte Carlo, not reporting the car stolen (which would have defeated the whole point of stealing the car in the first place), taking control of WIles' dead body and entering Fort Riley for an unlawful purpose.

Wilaby was arrested in Pensacola.

Chris dated my sister for about 3 years. My parents always ignored me, and Chris and my sister spent real time with me. This was after whatever happened in '05... Christopher Anthony Wilaby is, and will always be, my big brother. I can't see how he could hurt someone like that. He lived with us at least 2 years. I love him to death. And as soon as I find him, I'll write him with my support. He confessed, so yeah, sure he did it. But, he never wronged me, and he made my life better. He was there for me when I needed him. So say what you will, he's a good big brother. Even to someone who never had one.

I just found out today that Echo May Wiles, the girl I knew with the strange name was found dead on the news. Five years ago I asked a guy she hung around what happened to her. I had found out her stepfather killed her only child that was left in his custody. Nothing was done because he was disabled. She kept showing me the baby picture, but she would look sullen when I ask her to bring the baby over. Then I found out she was pregnant with twins. She had multiple relationships and I worried they may not like her messing around like that. She seem carefree and too careless to be a responsible mother. I wished her the best though. I was told she went to Colorado five years ago. It'a strange but I said I hope she doesn't end up in a river somewhere by making one of lovers mad, because I never saw her again. I hope Echo can rest in peace with her baby now. I will remember the red headed girl who stop by to say hi to me in Ogden.

well i grew up with chris and I can assure you he did and has admitted to it. He tried to get with my sister in high school and would do creepy things because she didn't want him. He has issues with being dissed. One year for valentine's day he cut the eyes out of a bear and gave it to my sister because she didn't want him. He is a CREEP!!!!! You can "not believe it" all you want, but fact is is he admitted to it and DID IT!!!! I don't say this because I don't like him or his family, his brother is my brothers best friend and his parents are GREAT people, Chris is just a very disturbed person. sorry
