Two Women Have Been Charged With Theft From Ex-Mouseketeer Found Dead in Home

• Two women are facing felony charges after stealing from the home of Dennis Day, a former Mouseketeer who was missing.
• We do have confirmation that Dennis Day has died. Authorities have not confirmed if these two women have anything to do with his death.
• The family of Day has released a statement following the confirmation of his death.

Two women named Wanda Garcia and Lori Declusin are currently facing felony charges for stealing Day’s white 1990s Ford Escort station wagon. Garcia is facing accusations of selling a brooch sometime last year that belongs to Day, less than a week after he was last seen alive. Declusin was under arrest for charges of unauthorized use of a motor vehicle.

Police have yet to confirm if the two have involvement in Day’s death. Officials made the discovery of his remains in June.

The family confirms Dennis Day’s death

Day’s niece, Janel Showers, confirmed the death of former Mouseketeer Dennis Day on the “Help Us Find Dennis Day!” Facebook page that was set up by the family.

“Our family would like to take this time to share with you that the remains found in Dennis and (husband) Ernie’s home have been officially identified as our beloved Brother and Uncle, Dennis Day. The cause of death is under investigation by the Oregon State Police so we will not be making any comments or answering any questions at this time. Our family is truly thankful to the Oregon State Police for helping to bring closure to our family so that we can finally lay Dennis to rest. We love you, Brother & Uncle Dennis!”  the post says.
