A Pennsylvania man has been arrested for allegedly killing his wife who vanished in 2017, prosecutors said. Anna Maciejewska, a Poland native, moved to the U.S. in 1997 and married Allen Gould in 2006, according to the criminal complaint. The couple’s son was 4 years old when she disappeared.
On April 11, 2017, Maciejewska, 43, was reported missing by a co-worker and a friend; the next day, Gould also reported her missing, the Chester County District Attorney’s Office said Wednesday. But evidence including phone records, financial records, and witness accounts point to Maciejewska stopping her normal routine on March 29, and the last time anyone saw her or heard from her was March 28, prosecutors said.
Suspicious Texts and Divorce Plans
On March 30, Maciejewska’s dad in Poland received a text from his daughter’s phone with a birthday message in Polish that had grammatical errors, prosecutors said. “Police later determined the same message was researched via Google Translate, despite that Maciejewska spoke Polish fluently,” prosecutors said in a statement. A printout of that same Google Translate message was found in Gould’s home, according to the criminal complaint.
Gould told police he last saw his wife on the morning of April 10 when she left for work, but her car’s internal system showed it was never driven that day, according to the criminal complaint. Maciejewska’s car was discovered in May in an apartment complex parking lot nearly 2 miles from their home, the complaint said. Allen Gould was arrested for allegedly killing his wife, Anna Maciejewska, who vanished in 2017, according to the Chester County District Attorney’s Office.
