An elderly New York City transgender woman was seen on store surveillance video sitting on a severed human leg in her motorized wheelchair before being arrested for murder.

Harvey Marcelin, 83, who was convicted of two other killings in 1963 and 1984, was arrested late last week for the killing of Susan Leyden, 68, after she was allegedly caught on surveillance cameras dumping a body near her Cypress Hills apartment.

Leyden's headless torso was stuffed into a garbage bag and dumped in a shopping cart in Brooklyn.

On March 2, a passerby made the grisly discovery on Pennsylvania and Atlantic avenues in the borough around 1:45 a.m. when he peeked inside the garbage bag.

On Friday, NYPD held a press conference where they showed a video of Marcelin sitting on a severed human leg. In the store surveillance footage, Marcelin is seen getting out of the wheelchair, exposing the leg, and then sitting back down.

'This is a gruesome and barbaric homicide, which resulted in a headless torso being disposed of on a New York City corner, and it takes a serial killer off our streets,' Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez told reporters.

'This is just the latest of a list of heinous offenses conducted over a period of lifetime by Ms. Harvey, and we can only hope that she can do no more,' he added.

According to the NYPD's investigation, Leyden, an LGBTQ activist who lives in a city shelter, was last seen alive on February 27 as she entered Marcelin's apartment at 50 Pennsylvania Avenue, carrying a 'multi-colored bag with a flower decal' and rolling a shopping cart.

Two days later, Marcelin and another woman were spotted leaving the building with the same bag as they headed to a Home Depot in Manhattan to purchase saws, trash bags

Should have been executed after the first conviction in 1964.

So how does a truly elderly person in a scooter/wheelchair manage to kill this person and dismember and toss those packages away?

Wow this is weird.

Male. Replace transgender with fake or pretend and you’ll get it.

“So how does a truly elderly person in a scooter/wheelchair...”

Possibly a false premise that the incapacitated individual (pronoun confusion in the article) was not as incapacitated as he/she/it played. Circumstances lean toward this being the reality.

Corrected version :

An elderly New York City man who likes to dress in women’s clothes was seen on store surveillance video sitting on a severed human leg in his motorized wheelchair before being arrested for murder.

Harvey Marcelin, 83, who was convicted of two other murders in 1963 and 1984, was arrested late last week for the murder of Susan Leyden, 68, after he was allegedly caught on surveillance cameras dumping a body near his Cypress Hills apartment....

Seems like murdering (his 2nd, at least) and dismembering a woman back in the 80s would be enough the keep this guy off the streets, but no.

All this transgender stuff is confusing, so let me see if I can help.

If it's a woman's fault that a man kills a woman ... you might be a Democrat. LOL

A MAN, no such thing as a transgender, it is a made up word.

Lifetime parole for two murders? Was he gentle with his victims or something? This guy should have got Life at the least- in a MEN’s prison.

Mail transvestite murders 2 women and is still out on the street to kill his third female victim. We use to call NYC the big apple but now it's more like the big shit-ball.

Here’s an easy rule: when the media says “transgender” just replace it with the word “fake”.

Another easy rule is to look at how many times the article refers to the person as "she" or "her". If every fifth word or so is either she or her then they're likely talking about a male. They throw the pronouns she and her around as a means of reinforcing their notion that a tranny is really a female. If they don't overuse the pronouns then they're talking about a real woman because they don't feel the need to convince you.

You mean HIS motorized wheelchair. Let’s not feed these people’s delusions about being the opposite sex.

Really hope they don’t put him in the women’s prison. He deserves to rot in a male prison facility, where the inmates have a decent chance of defending themselves should he try anything.

Soooo, some trannys killed another weirdo and what?

Do keep in mind, this is Brooklyn, the same area that brought the ex-bartender, AOC, to national attention.

The only sane one seems to be the one who peeked in the bag and didn’t take a piece.
