A Long Island man, Gary Cowell, 72, of Patchogue, has been indicted for unlawful concealment of a human corpse and tampering with physical evidence. The charges stem from the alleged dismemberment of a 56-year-old woman from Patchogue, whose remains were found across three locations in Patchogue.
The Suffolk County District Attorney, Raymond A. Tierney, announced the indictment, stating that Cowell was allegedly involved in the dismemberment of the deceased individual. He commended the Suffolk County Police detectives for swiftly locating the victim's remains and assured the victim's family and the public of their commitment to pursuing justice through the legal process.
