据调查人员称，米哈尔斯基和嫌疑人在一家夜总会相遇，并一起去其他场所过夜。据调查人员称，他们随后去了嫌疑人租住的公寓，据称他在那里杀了她。
犯罪者试图掩盖谋杀;因此，据警方称，当他出去买行李箱时，他打扫了他的公寓并将该女子的尸体藏在衣柜里。

据美国广播公司水牛城分部报道，米哈尔斯基住在俄勒冈州波特兰市，是纽约弗雷多尼亚人WKBW.
一个朋友告诉WKBW，她和Michalski一直和一群朋友在欧洲旅行，在周一分手前在匈牙利呆了三天。
这位名叫Gretchen Tower的朋友告诉WKBW，Michalski将在布达佩斯再呆一个晚上，然后在周二离开。
当Michalski从未离开他们在布达佩斯共享的Airbnb时，她的朋友说她开始担心。据她的朋友说，Michalski也错过了她的航班。
在没有她的消息后，Tower告诉WKBW，她在周二打电话给美国大使馆，报告Michalski失踪。
美国国务院星期五说，它知道有报道说匈牙利警方拘留了一名与一名美国公民在匈牙利失踪有关的嫌疑人。它说，美国大使馆正在与匈牙利警方联系，但由于“隐私和其他考虑”，没有进一步的评论
米哈尔斯基的家人和朋友周五发表了一份声明，称他们“对匈牙利警方公布的一份报告深感悲痛，该报告宣布了我们敬爱的肯齐的死亡。”
声明称:“人们将永远记住肯齐，她是一位美丽而富有同情心的年轻女性，致力于关爱他人，让世界变得更美好。”“作为一名执业护士，肯齐用她的幽默、积极和无限的同情心来帮助治愈她的病人，并鼓励家人和朋友。”
她的家人和朋友感谢美国和匈牙利当局的“及时关注、勤奋、关怀和考虑”，以及那些帮助提高人们对她失踪的认识的人。
“我们感谢肯齐的灵魂现在得到了安息，”声明说。“她的记忆和遗产将在她接触过的所有人心中永存。理解肯齐的精神就是全心全意地拥抱生活的巨大快乐和奇迹。她对世界的愿望:完全拥抱当下，做真实的自己，修行善良，永远走在光明中。”
American tourist who went missing in Hungary killed, murder suspect arrested: Police
A 31-year-old American tourist in Hungary who had been missing for several days was killed, and a suspect has been arrested for her murder, authorities said Friday.
Mackenzie "Kenzie" Michalski, a nurse practitioner, was last heard from early Tuesday while visiting Budapest, according to her friends, who spread the word about her disappearance.
The American went missing while at a nightclub on Tuesday, according to Budapest police. Amid the search for her, investigators identified a man she was seen with in several nightclubs, police said.
The suspect -- a 37-year-old Irish citizen -- was arrested and allegedly confessed to killing her, police said. He allegedly showed police where he had hidden her body, police said. The name of the suspect, who was a "a couple of years the victim's senior," according to investigators, was only identified as L.T.M.
Investigators provided more details about the murder during a news conference Saturday.
Michalski and the suspect met at a nightclub and spent the night together going to other venues, according to investigators. They then went to the suspect's rented apartment and he allegedly killed her there, according to investigators.
The perpetrator then tried to cover up the murder; so he allegedly cleaned his apartment and hid the woman's body in the wardrobe cabinet while he went out to buy a suitcase, according to the police.
He then allegedly put the victim's body in the suitcase, rented a car and drove to Lake Balaton with the suitcase in the trunk, police said.
The suspect allegedly hid the victim in the woods, in an area outside Szigliget and then drove back to Budapest, investigators said.
The suspect allegedly made several suspicious internet searches including "Do pigs really eat dead bodies?", "Texas woman killed by a wild boar," according to investigators.
Michalski lived in Portland, Oregon, and was a native of Fredonia, New York, according to ABC Buffalo affiliateWKBW.
A friend told WKBW that she and Michalski had been traveling with a group of friends through Europe and had spent three days in Hungary before parting ways on Monday.
The friend, Gretchen Tower, told WKBW that Michalski was staying behind for one more night in Budapest before flying out on Tuesday.
When Michalski never checked out of the Airbnb they shared in Budapest, her friend said she began to worry. Michalski also missed her flight, according to her friends.
After not hearing from her, Tower told WKBW she called the U.S. Embassy on Tuesday to report Michalski missing.
The U.S. State Department said Friday it is aware of reports that Hungarian police have detained a suspect in connection with the disappearance of a U.S. citizen in Hungary. It said the U.S. Embassy is in contact with Hungarian police but has no further comment due to "privacy and other considerations."
Michalski's family and friends released a statement on Friday that said they are "deeply saddened to confirm a report published by Hungarian police announcing the death of our beloved Kenzie."
"Kenzie will forever be remembered as a beautiful and compassionate young woman who dedicated herself to caring for others and making the world a better place," the statement said. "As a nurse practitioner, Kenzie used her humor, positivity, and limitless empathy to help heal her patients and encourage family and friends alike."
Her family and friends thanked the U.S. and Hungarian authorities for their "prompt attention, diligence, care, and consideration" as well as those who helped raise awareness about her disappearance.
"We are thankful that Kenzie’s soul is now at peace," the statement said. "Her memory and legacy will endure in the hearts of all whom she’s touched. To understand Kenzie’s spirit is to wholeheartedly embrace the vast joy and wonder of life. Her wish for the world: fully embrace the present moment, be your authentic self, practice kindness, and always walk in the light."
