“I don’t know if this is the actual killer … But how inhumane. You’re dragging down the block somebody’s daughter. He should be lucky the police got him before that community,” Mayor Eric Adams said.
According to CBS New York … several people mentioned that Williams, 31, was friends with a man who uses a wheelchair in the neighborhood. The location of the killing is still unknown, and police are investigating if it occurred in Irish’s apartment.
After police made the gruesome discovery of her body, Irish was arrested and charged with murder in the second degree, concealment of a human corpse, and second-degree criminal possession of a weapon.
