100 CENTRE STREET, Oct 23 – A man arrested for murder and arson after the body of a person the press called his boyfriend was found stabbed and disemboweled in East Harlem in 2020 is on trial now, in 2025.
It is a bench trial before NYS Justice Curtis J. Farber, who on October 23 put his own questions to the NYPD evidence witness. Inner City Press was there, along with fewer than a half-dozen others in the large courtroom gallery.
There was extensive local media coverage when the decedent's intestines were found in the building's hallway. Now? Not so much.
Defense counsel, retained by Aljo Mrkulic, peppered the witness with questions including if she could conclusively identify the flesh found in the hallway. She could not, except to note the hair on it. The trial continues.
