Best friend's boyfriend arrested for murder of Bronx woman whose remains were dumped in NYC parks

Police ID'd the dismembered human remains found in plastic bags in two Bronx parks as 25-year-old Lisa Marie Velasquez, who was allegedly killed by her best friend's boyfriend

The two 'perpetrators' involved in the death of 25-year-old Lisa Marie Velasquez -- her longtime pal Ciara Martinez, 30, and her boyfriend Daquan Wheeler, 31 -- were arrested on Wednesday, stated a Twitter announcement by Chief Dermot Shea.
