Orsola Gaal, 51, was seen by neighbor John Blankson walking around the yard with her dog on Friday night
Surveillance footage near the home of a murdered Queens mother captured an unidentified person dragging a bloody hockey bag with what cops describe as the slaughtered remains of a woman inside.
Orsola Gaal, 51, was found dead in her purse at 8:11 a.m. Saturday. The bag was found less than a mile on the sidewalk next to a busy highway.
No one has been arrested for her death.
Police questioned her 13-year-old son, but he was released without charge.
Her husband, a stock adviser, Howard Klein, and the other son were out of town attending colleges at the time of her murder.
Police believe Orsolya went out on Saturday night, probably with a man, after which he returned home.
She was killed in the basement of her home and then taken out of her bag, they say. Unnamed sources told PIX11 News that she told her son that she was dating friends, but was actually with another man.
After she was killed, police believe the killer used her phone to send a message to her husband and say that “your whole family is next.”
PIX11 also cites sources who say the killer also told Howard: “Your wife sent me to jail a few years ago. I’m back’
Surveillance footage shows someone in a hood turning a bag near her home around 4.30am. The bag is similar to the one used by her 13-year-old son, but police have not yet revealed the identity of the person in the video.
“Something is not complementary. But there are cameras along the way. They will say whether he is an adult or a child, “an unnamed police source told The New York Post.
“She knew the people she was out with.” We talk to them. We also need to find out if she met a mysterious stranger on her way? they added.
A shocking surveillance photo captures an unidentified person dragging a bloody hockey bag full of what cops say are the remains of a Queens mother down the sidewalk on Friday night.

After the 13-year-old was questioned, cops found that he did not know about the crime. The child was subsequently released, police said after finding that the body in the bag belonged to Gaal.
Detectives are now investigating the horrific discovery, which was made by two different locals on a stretch of street that crosses a local park.
Gaal was seen by neighbor John Blankson walking around the yard with his dog on Friday night, according to the New York Daily News.
“The sun came out, Friday was pretty good,” Blankson said. “We were outside.” We didn’t really talk to her – we just chilled out – but she was out with the dog.
That was the last time Blankson or his family saw Gaal. He also said everyone in his house was awake, especially late Friday night.
Police told the Daily News that Klein and his son had been informed of Gaal’s death and were on their way back to New York.
Earlier, the Daily News reported that police were investigating the possibility of a male relative killing Gaal, citing law enforcement sources at the time.

The bag remains covered in the streets as detectives try to figure out who was responsible for Gaal’s death.
“She knew the people she was out with,” a source told Gaal. “We’re talking to them.” We also need to find out if she met a mysterious stranger on her way?
Gaal did not have an identity card when she was found, police told the New York Daily News evening, adding that officers who tracked down the trail “rushed in” to the woman’s home in an attempt to reach the bottom of the the terrible discovery.
Cops say a blood trail from the blood-soaked bag led them to Gaal’s house in a gated community on Juneau Street, half a mile from where her body was found.
Gaal’s husband, identified by neighbors as Howard Klein, is reportedly traveling out of state with the couple’s eldest son, 17, according to Twitter posts from the man posted earlier this week.

When he contacted the Post by phone, Klein said he was “in the middle of a terrible experience” and was preparing to fly back to New York.
‘[My son] Leo is safe. Thank goodness [my son] it’s safe, “he told the 13-year-old.
“There are concerns about our safety. Our lives are at risk.
According to Gaal’s Facebook page, she attended the College of International Management and Business at the Budapest Business School and probably has a family in Hungary.
Several photos published by Gaal show the woman with the family’s dog and tell of trips to Hungary, Croatia, China and Guatemala. The publications also show that the mother speaks Hungarian.
In February, she contributed to a fundraiser organized by her younger son for the breast cancer organization Susan G. Comen, the Daily News reported.
In a YouTube video released last month, the 13-year-old explained that he had started fundraising as a mitzvah bar project in honor of his paternal grandmother, who died of cancer in 2010.
“My grandmother Deborah Klein died after a five-year battle with breast cancer at the age of 76,” the child said in the video. “I was only 18 then, so I never had the opportunity to know my grandmother Debbie.”
Meanwhile, her husband’s social media accounts suggest he is from Long Island and a trader in lithium, a metal used to power electronics.
Husband Howard Klein is the founder of RK Equity, according to his LinkedIn profile, where he currently works as a partner. His profile describes the business as “a New York-based boutique capital markets consulting firm.”
He received his bachelor’s degree from the University of Michigan in 1990, where he traveled with his 17-year-old son, while his wife was killed and dismembered.
No detainees are under investigation, which is still ongoing.
A local is the first to stumble upon the sinister scene, cops said. Noticing the blood, the good Samaritan called the dispatchers around 8:11 in the morning
Police arrived on the scene after a second call was made, according to another local, Glen Van Nostrand, reportedly the second to encounter the body.
Van Nostrand, 51, who was walking in the park with his two hunting dogs, told the New York Post that he noticed what he said was a black Bauer hockey bag as he headed down a busy street to a nearby home. .
The worrying discovery comes as New York continues to fight a wave of violent crime, in which major crimes have risen nearly 50 percent in the past year.
Mr Nostrand did not think much about the discovery at first, he told the newspaper, but the strange behavior of his two greyhounds prompted him to look inside. “They’re smelly greyhounds,” he said. They see the world through their noses.
When he opened the bag, he found the confused body, which he thought was packed in the bag in a fruit pose.
He said: “She looked like a mannequin to me. It didn’t look very meaty. He was more of a crash test dummy. I thought maybe some equipment was being used for something. I didn’t think anything about it.
The Queens resident then said he noticed black ankle-length jeans, a belt and a woman’s waist, and realized it was a real body, eventually noticing blood on the other side of the bag after opening it.
“I thought, ‘Oh my God,’ and I called the police,” he said, adding that he had told dispatchers who answered his call, “There’s a body in this bag.”
He told how “another gentleman”, who was not identified by the cops, had called earlier for the bag with the corpses, but the officers had not arrived on the spot at that moment.
Cops who arrived at the scene transferred the remains to the chief forensic doctor’s office for an autopsy on Saturday morning to determine the cause of death.
The incident is the latest in a shocking influx of crime that has plagued the city since the start of the pandemic. ‘
Last week, senior cop Sewell refuted a recent policy trend such as bail reform and Manhattan Attorney General Alvin Bragg’s stance on reducing or dropping charges for many crimes.
‘[The justice system] it must be fair, but it must above all favor the people it is destined to protect and defend. When the focus on these people is lost – New Yorkers who deserve to be freed from fear – politicians fail to achieve their most important goal, which is public safety, “Sewell told the press on April 6.
“Every day New Yorkers need more help. Our …
