Medical examiners were later able to identify the dead man through fingerprints.

NEW YORK (AP) — A New York City woman was charged with concealing a corpse after officers discovered a man’s head and body parts in her apartment’s refrigerator, officials said Friday.

    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.

          Convicted pedophile and KNOWN current drug dealer. Let’s just sit back and let him run wild after all he went to prison once! Most people who have been to prison would get their door kicked in if they were a known CURRENT drug dealer. Where I’m from, they’ll kick your door down for that shit. But nope, not here. Let em loose. Crazy

            Yes, I got it the first time, you think he should have been executed and aren’t too on board with the whole “rehabilitation” thing.

            Plus you hear “drug dealer” and assume he’s selling dirty heroin to teenagers or something and therefore deserves double death, you made this all very clear.

              No I think you should monitor the convicted pedophiles and obviously if he was a known current dealer there was a huge problem with that monitoring system. So yeah, let em run loose like that and the neighborhood will probably take care of it

        If I was interviewing a Proud Boy it would sound a lot more like that gorilla joke from 1897.

      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.

    This like Dexter in real life. Is there a word for a serial killer who is also an ethical vigilante?
