Report: NYC mom found in duffel bag was stabbed nearly 60 times
NEW YORK - A married mother of two was stabbed nearly 60 times after she allegedly met up with a man at her $2 million New York City home while her teen son was upstairs, according to a new report.
A preliminary autopsy revealed that Orsolya Gaal, 51, received 60 sharp blunt force injuries to her neck, torso and left arm, police sources told the New York Post.
Her carotid artery and trachea had been sliced, and she had wounds on her fingers and the palms of her hands, the newspaper reported.
Gaal allegedly told her 13-year-old son Friday that she was going out to watch a show but later met up with another man, police sources told WPIX.
Gaal’s husband and older 17-year-old son were out of town scoping out colleges.
“Just landed Portland, OR before evaluating Ann Arbor again with my 17-year old son,” he said in a tweet, per the Daily News.
The unidentified man allegedly killed Gaal in the basement of her home and then used her phone to send an ominous text to her businessman husband Howard Klein, "Your whole family is next!" police sources told WPIX.
The New York Post reported having reached Klein via telephone, who informed the outlet he was “in the middle of a terrible experience.”
“[My son] Leo is safe. Thank God [my son] is safe,” he said of his 13-year-old, adding that he and his son’s “lives are at stake.”
The outlet questioned him about authorities interviewing his son.
“There are concerns about our safety. Our lives are at risk,” Klein responded
A New York City mother was discovered dead inside of a blood-soaked duffel bag Saturday morning about a half-mile from her home in Queens, police said.
Police said an individual reported finding the blood-stained bag near Metropolitan Avenue and Jackie Robinson Parkway at 8:11 a.m., PIX 11 noted. Once on the scene, authorities found 51-year-old Orsolya Gaal’s body inside the bag and followed a trail of blood back to her residence on Juno Street, New York City Police (NYPD) said.
Police said once they reached the home, they made an “emergency entry” into the residence where they made contact with her 13-year-old son, who was wondering where his mother was, the New York Daily News reported. Police questioned and later released the teen, authorities said.
Gaal’s bloodied corpse was found stuffed inside a hockey duffel bag just after 8 a.m. Saturday about a half a mile from her family’s Forest Hills home, according to police.
Authorities believe the suspect knew his victim and attacked her out of anger, police sources told the newspaper.
A trail of blood led back to the slain woman’s Tudor-style house in the upscale Queens neighborhood, police said.
Surveillance video captured an unidentified person wheeling a duffel bag down a sidewalk at about 4:30 a.m. Saturday.
"There are concerns about our safety," Klein told the newspaper. "Our lives are at risk."
Police questioned Gaal’s 13-year-old son, but he was later released.
Neighbors were shocked by the murder in the quiet suburb. One told FOX 5 News that the killing was "unimaginable" for the community.

"It’s very unusual to see this. I don’t know how this could happen around here," another told the Post.
