UNSOLVED MURDERS, MISSING PERSONS, AND THE UNIDENTIFIED ON LONG ISLAND 1980=2011

To aid me in my own sleuthing and because I have OCD, I have been working on a list of unsolved murders and unsolved missing persons cases on Long Island going back to the 80's. I have taken this information from various sources. This was very tedious, particularly since many of these articles were poorly written or researched. I left out any gunshot wounds. Carbuff made a list in the beginning but I think we have a better perspective of what may be important than we did in the beginning. I did this to see if a pattern would emerge. What did surprise me was the number of young men in the list. Were they individual murders by separate people or could they have been by the same SK or another SK targeting male prostitutes or male trannies? I notice that like the girls, most of these males are small. Another victim that always pops out at me is Colleen McNamee who disappeared leaving a treatment center. Any way, hope this might be helpful to someone else. Feel free to point out any victims I have missed or any mistakes.

1980 to 1990

Feb. 1, 1982 TINA ELIZABETH FOGLIA disappeared from a Hammerheads nightclub, sunrise highway. She was seen leaving with a man. She was found on Southern State Pky, which is a 5 min. drive from Oak Beach. Found in 3 separate plastic trash bags. She was dismembered with a surgical instrument and found by workers picking up garbage. Police always felt that the person who did this could be a doctor or has experience in surgery. She was found a couple of days after leaving the clug. Shulman and Rifken were ruled out.

July 15, 1982 PRINCESS DOE in Cedar Ridge Cemetery, Blaorstown, NJ. Police believe the woman was most likely from Long Island. White female, age 14-18, 5,2', 100 lb., wearing red V-neck pullover shirt with yellow piping, wrap around skirt with red, white and blue print, gold chain with white beads, gold cross, shoulder length brown hair, both ears pierced, left ear twice. Dead for about 3 weeks. Blunt force trauma to the head. Possibly a victim of Arthur Kinlaw, now in prison for other crimes.

June 12, 1984 KELLY MORRISSEY of Lynbrook, NY, last seen walking west on Earl Avenue and Merrick Rd. She is believed to have been destined for Captain Video, a video parlor half a mile west of Merrick Road, but she never arrived. One of Morrissey's friends, THERESA FUSCO, disappeared on Nov. 10, 1984, almost 5 months after Morrissey. Several months after Fusco was found another area teenager, JACQUELINE MARTARELLA, 19, disapppeared after she left a friend's Oceanside home to go to her workplace at Burger King. Police are looking into the possibility that Martarella's, Fusco's, and Morriseey's cases are all related. All 3 women were Caucasian teenagers who were last seen walking alone in the evening hours. Both Martarella and Fusco were strangled and were found naked, their bodies dumped in open fields. Their clothing was never found. Three men were convicted of murdering Fusco and served 17 yrs. in prison for the crime before they were released after DNA testing cast doubt on their guilt. One of them was retried and acquitted of all charges; the other two are waiting for either a retrial or a dismissal of the charges. Prior to her disappearance Morrissey had bragged that she knew one of the defendants in the Fusco case and even had the key to his apartment. http://www.charleyproject.org/cases/m/morrissey_kelly.html

Nov. 10, 1984 THERESA FUSCO, friend of Kelley Morrissey disappeared. Body found 3 wks. later on Dec. 5, 1984 about 5 blocks from her home. She had been raped and strangled. Found naked in an open field. See Kelly Morrissey above.

March 26, 1985, JACQUELINE MARTARELLA, 19, disappeared after she left a friend's Oceanside home to go to her workplace at Burger King. Her body was found on April 22 on a golf course. Found strangled and naked in open field.
“She disappeared from a nighttime street in Oceanside Long Island on March 26, 1985. She was just nineteen years old 4 feet 11 inches and 95 pounds and her name was Jacqueline Martarella. Her murder remains unsolved. Jacqueline Martarella was found in April 1985 hidden in the tall reeds adjacent to the seventeenth hole of the Woodmere Country Club in exclusive Lawrence, Long Island. She was nude, ligature strangled and raped. Behind the course, in a secluded wooded section about six hundred yards from where the body was found, a small cave sat in the clearing. Inside this cave, was actually an abandoned root cellar from an estate that had stood on the property years before, we found shocking evidence. The walls were emblazoned with satanic symbols and inverted crosses. Outside the cellar they found clothing that looked very similar to what Jacqueline was wearing, according to her parents”. Maury Terry, the author of The Ultimate Evil.

June, 1986 PATRICIA COSTELLO of Brentwood, Suffolk County, was living in Bay Shore at the time of her murder. She worked as a topless dancer/cocktail waitress at various bars in Suffolk County. At about 5pm, Sunday, June 1, 1986, a horseback rider in Heckscher State Park found Ms. Costello’s nude, strangled body, approximately 200 feet from the shore of the Great South Bay in Islip. Seemingly, the assailant tried to make the murder appear to be a suicide by tying one end of a piece of material around Ms. Costello’s neck and the other around a nearby tree. Cannot find any more information.

Medical examiner records show this woman was either black or Hispanic, 5’10”, 180-200 pounds and had a tattoo of two cherries above her right breast. The only clues are what was found with the body: a black Protégé suitcase manufactured by InGear—sold exclusively at Wal-Mart—a red, blood-soaked camisole with a Spanish brand label, lavender Champion sweatpants, a blue bra and a tan long-sleeved t-shirt, manufactured by Voice, and ripped up scraps of paper, possibly a page from a calendar, reading “cinco” and “begin to live.”

July 12, 2009 MELISSA BATHELEMY DOD 7/12/2009 vanished from Bronx (Underhill Ave.) sitting on curb; apt w/5 cats(Sunday)/ got call from Massapequa. LI. Eight days after Melissa's disappearance, her sister, Amanda, began to receive calls, The caller ID indicated the call came from Melissa's cellphone.
Mother said they received five more calls, the last one on August 26, 2009. Ms. Barthelemy saw a client and then deposited $900 into her bank, around the time she vanished, she checked her voice mail from Massapequa, L.I. July 10, 2009, she checked her voice mail from two motels in Massapequa, a Budget Inn and a Best Western.

They traced a second phone that belonged to her to an ex-con who said he picked it up after a tussle between hookers in Times Square orchestrated by a pimp. Boyfriend Blaze, aka Terry, Escort Agency: James Bond Entertainment as Chloe I found a single ad for Melissa posting as chloe, under the one number. She advertised various services to include Domination/BDSM & Fetish/Role Play. She advertised as out call only, charging $100/15 min, $150 half hour, $250 hour, and $1000 overnight. Her pictures indicated she did car dates as well. Earlier that evening, the blond beauty told her boyfriend that she might be going to Long Island, a frequent haunt of hers. She regularly hung out there with a girlfriend who also worked as an online escort, as well as at the home of a regular client. Her boyfriend said he would oftentimes pick her up from the john's house. "She had some older man she was chummy with." Eight days after Melissa's disappearance, her sister, Amanda, began to receive calls, The caller ID indicated the call came from Melissa's cellphone.
Lynn said they received five more calls, the last one on August 26, 2009. if we are to believe MB's boyfriend, he also received taunting calls. Interesting to note that the boyfriend says the caller appeared to be drunk. Terry said the anonymous caller called him more than 30 times over a period of eight months. Apparently on July 10, 2009, she checked her voice mail from two motels in Massapequa, a Budget Inn and a Best Western. This is from NYC 1/26/11. The significance of this is that she apparently had multiple "dates" on LI and it is close to certain that she made the two voicemail calls herself. This still places the SK in South Shore LI but not necessarily Massapequa.

Lorraine Ela, Megan’s mother, said her daughter had logged onto Craigslist at 12:05 a.m. on the night she went missing, and that video cameras showed her leaving the hotel at 1:30 a.m. She never returned. Akeem was busted in October on a drug charges after authorities received complaints of suspected drug trafficking from a South Portland motel room, according to the Maine Drug Enforcement Agency. He was sentenced in November to a 20-month hitch for drug trafficking, said Maine Correction Department Associate Commissioner Denise Lord.

According to Costello's roommate Dave Schaller, the pint-size escort received a call from a john who wanted her to meet him at the hotel at 1 a.m. a few weeks before she disappeared in September 2010. And Megan Waterman was staying at the same hotel with her boyfriend when she vanished without a trace three months earlier."

When Megan Waterman would travel to meet clients, she would drop off her four-year-old daughter, Lily, with her grandparents and borrow a friend's car or catch the bus from her home in Scarborough, Maine, to Long Island. She would go at the behest of her boyfriend, Akeem Cruz, who called himself 'The Vibe' and moonlighted as Megan's pimp. The couple took a bus to Long Island last spring and checked in at a hotel on Long Island. They left together at 8pm and Megan returned half an hour later by herself. At 1.30am she got a call on her mobile phone from Cruz's mobile, and she left her room. A witness last spotted Waterman outside, walking toward an all-night shop. It was the last time she was seen alive.

"Colleen McNamee, she was also last seen in the area of Hauppauge leaving a drug rehab clinic which if you are local you know it is in the vicinity of the state office buildings which house the courts, DMV, etc.. I strongly believe that the killer has the ability to know where they will be meeting with clients and picks them up AFTER they leave a job and that is the abduction point. I dont believe its someone as obvious as a pimp, I think it is possibly a john who cancels on these girls last minute or does a no show and grabs them when they are ready to leave. Im sorry for taking up so much of the board and I hope this helps. And I also hope I can be helpful with my knowledge of the locality and the other information I have."

Colleen is mentioned in the Manorville case. Her cause of death was strangulation.

"Colleen McNamee, 20, of Holbrook and Rita Tangredi-Beinlich, 31, of East Patchogue who died from strangulation in 1994 and discovered in different locations. "

Thanks Bessie...I'm assuming they know that Rita Tangredi's daughter was "best friends" with Melissa Barthelemy?

Then we should steer clear of that one. But if you guys find the right one, HE is wide open for sleuthing. Just be careful not to encroach on anyone else's privacy. ;)

I believe that IS the right one, he just post (modsnip)
I think he is a MC guy and possibly train (modsnip)

There is actually a picture of himself (modsnip) in the photo album.
(Modsnip) and there are pictures of him there as well.

In this ink you can see that his name IS John Bittrolff Jr. and his age is right Age: 45-49

Can´t be 100% sure though, but there are no other FBs of his name.

I wonder how the police got ahold of bittrolff's DNA.? to compare it to the dan found on victims....

also the fb page for jb jr. is the dudes kid.....moo
 
But the vast majority of his friends are teenagers making me believe it is the FB page of his son.

(This is in reply to theforeigner's post. Forgot to quote.)
 
Big mistake by me. Possibly his kid. Sorry for jumping the gun. Poor effort for a long time lurkers first post. I hope/wish somehow it isn't his son.

It is his sons FB page. He himself doesn't appear to have a FB page at all.
 
It's quite possible that he simply does not have a FB profile.

A 48-year-old Manorville man was arrested Monday in connection with a pair of cold case murders from the 1990s, Suffolk County Police announced late Monday night.



John Bittrolff of Silas Carter Road, in Brookhaven Town, is accused of killing two women and dumping their bodies in wooded areas in East Patchogue and Shirley. Mr. Bittrolff, who was charged with two counts of second-degree murder, was connected to the crimes through DNA evidence, police said.

On Nov. 2, 1993, Rita Tangredi, 31, was found nude in a wooded area off of Esplanade Drive in East Patchogue. Ms. Tangredi, who was also identified as Rita Tangredi-Beinlich and whose address was unknown at the time of her death, was beaten and strangled to death, police said.

On Jan. 30, 1994, the body of Colleen McNamee, 20, who was living on Hyacinth Lane in Holbrook, was found dead in the woods near Express Drive South, near the William Floyd Parkway in Shirley. Ms. McNamee was also found nude, beaten and strangled to death, police said.

Does anyone know what Bittrolff did for a living? Or where he went to school?
