The married mother of two, 51, had reportedly been stabbed nearly 60 times by an unknown attacker in her home and her body was dragged half a mile away and dumped near to a popular walking path on Metropolitan Avenue in the early hours of Saturday morning.

Police followed a trail of blood from the bag that led them about half a mile to an upscale gated community in Forest Hills.

Howard Klein called 911 just after 7am on 29 May 2020 to say that his wife had failed to return from a late night stroll the night before, sources told the New York Post.

Mr Klein phoned back about half an hour later to say that Ms Gaal, 51, had been found.

Ms Gaal, 51, was stabbed 58 times in the basement of her home before her killer placed her body in a duffle bag and left her remains in a nearby park early on the morning of Saturday, 16 April.

Two days later, it emerged police had identified a person of interest in her killing.

Here is what we know about the events leading up to Ms Gaal’s death and the police investigation.

Ms Gaal’s body was found stuffed in a hockey bag on Saturday morning in Forest Park in the borough of Queens.

Police followed a trail of blood from the bag that led them about half a mile to an upscale gated community in Forest Hills.

Law enforcement made an “emergency entry” into the woman’s home and found her 13-year-old son alone on the top floor. He was questioned by police and released.

Ms Gaal’s husband Howard Klein and 17-year-old son were reportedly in Portland at the time of her murder.

Investigators said they stopped short of identifying the suspect because they don’t have enough evidence against him and the man could surrender with a lawyer and refuse to answer questions.

Sources told New York Daily News that the suspect had been in Orsolya Gaal’s Tudor-style home and may have done work around the house.

She was also in contact with three men on the night before her death, law enforcement sources added.

Robert Boyce, a veteran of the New York Police Department said that even though the suspect’s face is not visible in the surveillance footage, it could be the key to unmasking the accused.

“One thing investigators will be able to do from the video is identify whether the killer has an abnormal or unique gait. If they have a limp or anything like that, then they may be easily identifiable to police … these distinctive features become more clear each time you watch it,” Mr Boyce told The Sun.

A person was caught on surveillance camera rolling a duffle bag down the pavement — inside of which the body of the 51-year-old Gaal was later found.

“…around 4.30am you see somebody rolling this [duffel bag] down the sidewalk from multiple cameras. [Cops] actually traced it backwards from the scene to the house,” NYPD sources said.

Suspected killer threatens Gaal’s husband: ‘Your wife sent me to jail’Police say the suspect in the murder of 51-year-old Queens mother Orsolya Gaal sent her husband Howard Klein a set of chilling text messages, to hint that it was an act of revenge.

Police sources told PIX11 that the suspect sent a text message to Mr Klein saying: “Your whole family is next.

“Your wife sent me to jail some years ago… I’m back,” the suspect allegedly said in another message.

Mr Klein, who was out of the state during Gaal’s killing, said that he was concerned about the family’s safety.Cameras along the path between the family home and where Gaal’s body was found may yield more information about the suspect’s identity, police said.

Friends and neighbours of the 51-year-old Orsolya Gaal took to her social media page to leave condolences and share their grief with the family over her torturous death.

“I’ll always remember how passionate you were about your boys and their education. I’m so sorry about how you left this world but I hope you find peace in the afterlife. Your boys are so lucky to have you as a Mom,” wrote David S Lee.

Adele Friedman D’Man, who claims to have been friends with Gaal for 15 years, said she can’t fathom this. “We were on the phone together just days ago speaking about Colleges… No no no … My heart is broken,” she wrote.

“You are the most beautiful and kindest woman! I will miss you! Can’t believe we have been talking about our puppies for the last two months,” added Cecilia Shi.

Officers investigating the ghastly killing of 51-year-old Orsolya Gaal are now exploring her relationships with other men.

Investigators are probing Gaal’s possible romantic links to at least one person based on her electronic communications with him, sources told CBS2.

They added that the accused likely entered Gaal’s house through the back door and there was no indication of forced entry, suggesting the victim knew the attacker.
