Verdict/Urteil: Unsolved
 

On March 21, 1986, Pedro Gonzalez, a 43-year-old restaurant worker, was found tied up and strangled in his Corona, Queens, apartment. Six days later, homicide detectives told the press his death bore similarities to two other homicides in Queens, committed since July of 1985. All three victims were dark-skinned Hispanic homosexuals, known to frequent the same two bars in Queens and Manhattan. Each victim was beaten to death or asphyxiated in his own apartment, with the lights left on and a radio blaring loud music. Objects stolen by the killer included two videocassette recorders and a portable radio. At this writing, the case remains unsolved, the killer still at large.
