In December 2022, a 43-year-old lady was discovered dead in her Brooklyn home. She’d been strangled, and her body had been hidden in the home for months before it was found. Tamara Graham was discovered decomposing in her Crown Heights Housing Authority apartment.
In January 2023, a 60-year-old woman was discovered dead in her Brooklyn residence. Neighbors said the woman was often heard fighting with her boyfriend. Her 62-year-old boyfriend alerted a friend that he discovered her dead body at the woman’s Ditmas Park residence. He then shut himself inside, stabbed himself in the chest, survived, and was arrested for the murder of the woman.
