Arrest Made Weeks After Grisly Discovery

It’s taken cops weeks, but they’ve finally arrested a woman in connection with the murder of a 59-year-old man found battered in his Queens apartment. Odeylin Gonzalaz, 33, is charged with murder for the killing of Felipe Gonzalez, whose body was discovered January 30 with severe injuries to his face and body.

The Investigation

Gonzalaz’s arrest comes after a lengthy investigation. It’s not clear what led cops to her, but they say she’s now facing serious charges. The case is just another example of the city’s ongoing struggle with violent crime.

Let’s be real, it’s ridiculous it took this long to make an arrest. The fact that it’s taken weeks to charge someone in connection with such a brutal crime is a pretty sad commentary on the state of our justice system.
