Alabama sheriff says man wanted in connection to 2017 death arrested in Key West

MOBILE COUNTY, Ala. (WKRG) — A Mobile County cold case investigation is getting new life.

Mobile County Sheriff Paul Burch said a man wanted in connection to the 2017 death of a woman has been arrested in Key West, Florida.

Ralph Pollack, 64, was booked into the jail in Monroe County, Florida. He’s charged with obstruction and abuse of a corpse in Alabama. In a 2018 Mobile County Sheriff’s Office Facebook post looking for Pollack, Burch posted an updated comment Sunday.

“He is in custody in Key West, FL, and will soon be returned to face his charges,” wrote the sheriff.

The sheriff’s office has been investigating the death of Joyce Chassidy Bosarge since 2017.

“Ralph showed up on time to his job for 20 years, and then he just left town when we wanted to speak with him about the death of Joyce Chassidy Bosarge,” the sheriff’s office wrote in a Facebook post from 2018.

Bosarge’s body was found in November 2017 on Rebel Road. WKRG spoke with Bosarge’s mother Joyce Zirlott in 2017.

“I think sometimes those drugs make them feel invincible, but they’re not,” Zirlott said. “I just wanted to put my hands on her and tell her I love her one last time. I love her with all my heart, and I always did, and I felt like I was too hard on her, and I think this tough love. I think people ought to think twice before they do tough love because I did tough love with her, and I am so regretful. I honestly don’t think you should love them until you can’t love them anymore.”

It’s not clear what Pollack’s connection to Bosarge’s death may be.
