    Investigators have identified the remains as Kawsheen Gelzer, a 40-year-old registered sex offender who was arrested for sexually abusing a 12-year-old boy in 2004, according to court documents.

    Gelzer is a known drug dealer who went missing after visiting Stines and her husband, Nicholas McGee, law enforcement sources said. He may have died during an ongoing narcotics dispute with the couple.

    NY Daily News is the best major newspaper in the city, and way more details than OP’s article.

      It sounds like this guy was causing harm to the community he lived in. And having known people like this, sometimes one wishes they could be snuffed out, or at the very least, hurt badly. So I get the sentiment. Her biggest mistake here is not hiding the body properly.

      Crime is crime. You would be singing a different tune if it was a guy murdering a female rapist and drug dealer. I am firmly against vigilante justice, but I am also a fucking strong believer in the death penalty, scum like him should be dealt with properly and swiftly, the law should ensure he does not hurt a kid or anybody else ever again.

        A crime is a crime, a joke is a joke, and the death penalty is a violation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

          See I get why people are against the death penalty I really do but I really can’t see what other options are better.

          And the reason I say that is because the main argument against the death penalty is innocent people being charged and executed. If that’s your main concern how is throwing an innocent person into a violent, crime ridden, deliberately underfunded, prison any better?

          Personally if I knew I was innocent but was going to be convicted anyway just kill me and get it over with. Either way my life is over and I’d rather not be tortured the whole time I’m still alive.

            I’m personally also against life imprisonment, you are either rehabilitated or if this is deemed dangerous for society you are mentally ill and should be treated. In such a treatment the patient can decide that their life is not worth living, and with permission from a psychiatrist they can then be euthanized.

      Seems like there should be a law that requires at least 51% of one’s body to be present, one of which must be the head in its entirety, before they could be considered fit for arrest.

      “Homicidal Maniac” is a good term for a serial killer who believes they are somehow being ethical.
