“Man faces federal charge of kidnapping resulting in death of 23-year-old Dorchester woman”

“[SBM]

The U.S. Attorney's Office said Coleman could face a sentence of death or life in prison if he is found guilty.

‘The interstate kidnapping resulting in death is the most applicable charge and carries the highest possible sentence. It’s a mandatory life charge and a death-eligible charge,’ said U.S. Attorney Andrew Lelling.

Suffolk County District Attorney Rachael Rollins said her office is not ruling out bringing state charges against Coleman.

‘But, today, that's not our focus. My focus, exclusively, is supporting Jassy Correia's loved ones,’ Rollins said Sunday.

Lelling said the cause of Correia's death appears to be strangulation and blunt force trauma.

[SBM]

Boston police said Correia was seen with a man, who was later identified as Coleman, in the area of 255 Tremont St. in Boston at approximately 12:15 a.m. Sunday, shortly after leaving the nightclub. She was later seen entering a red sedan with the man in the area of Tremont and Herald streets.

[SBM]

‘We can't know yet exactly what he planned to do with the body, but all of the cleaning and cutting supplies in the vehicle and that he got from Walmart imply that he planned to somehow dispose of the body,’ Lelling said.

[SBM]

Coleman faces charges in Providence of kidnapping, refusal to report a death with intent to conceal a crime and mutilation of a dead human body. It is not known when Coleman will be brought back to Rhode Island to appear in court.

‘This guy’s an animal,’ [Boston Mayor Marty] Walsh said.

A little more detailed timeline:

“[SBM]

Correia went missing after leaving Venu nightclub in Boston’s Theater District early on Sunday, Feb. 24. An 11-page affidavit said Correia’s father and a friend of hers who had accompanied her to the club reported her missing around 5:30 p.m. on Feb. 26.

Video surveillance showed Correia ‘interacted with several people’ around 2:14 a.m. on Feb. 24 on Tremont Street near Venu, and that Coleman approached her about two minutes later and began talking with her, the affidavit said.

Then footage showed Correia and Coleman walking together and getting into Coleman’s red sedan, records show.

Coleman entered Venu earlier in the night and showed his Rhode Island driver’s license which security staff scanned. Investigators compared his license photo with the man in the surveillance footage and determined they were the same person, leading authorities to Coleman’s Providence apartment, the filing said.

Additional surveillance footage from Coleman’s apartment complex showed him engaging in highly suspicious behavior, records show.

He pulled into his parking lot around 4:15 a.m., exited his car and returned a short time later carrying a blanket, the affidavit said. Then he carried Correia into the apartment building around 4:27 a.m., placing her on the floor and dragging her to the elevator, records show.

She was naked from the waist up and wearing the same orange paints she had on earlier at the club, according to the affidavit, which also noted she wasn’t moving and her body was limp.

Two minutes later, the filing said, Coleman exited the elevator on the sixth floor and dragged Correia’s body in the direction of unit 602, where he lives.

While the timeline suggests Coleman pulled into his apartment approximately two hours after meeting Correia in Boston, a drive from Boston to Providence at that time normally takes less than 60 minutes. Authorities haven’t specified where Correia died.

[SBM]

He drove himself to Walmart in the same red sedan, which is registered to his mother in California, records show.

Shortly before 10 p.m. on Feb. 27, Coleman entered his apartment with a large suitcase with bright blue piping, and the suitcase appeared new with sales tags still on it, the filing said.

At 1:15 a.m. on Feb. 28, the affidavit said, he wheeled the suitcase out of his building and lifted it with some difficulty into the trunk of his sedan. Several times between 2:44 a.m. and 4:02 a.m., he left the apartment building with items including trashbags, cardboard boxes, a bottle of bleach, black laptop case, computer tower, and a small dark-colored duffel bag, the filing said.

This is all so weird. This screams the opposite of calculating killer to me. He seems like he had no clue what he was doing/planned to do.

But there’s something about him that makes me think he’s severely disturbed.

 

[happyday]

Do we know why he was charged with mutilation of a dead body? Didn’t I see somewhere that the rumors that he had cut up the body were false?
Also do we know if she was sexually assaulted?

 

[Plo_Koon]

Well here is a couple obvious questions-

Why did he take the body to Delaware?
Where was he going?

I can't even come up with a guess.

My guess would be that it's a straight shot down I-95 SOUTH from Boston to Delaware (and, honestly, you could take 95 SOUTH from MAINE all the way down to FLORIDA). With that being said though --- that would be a pretty stupid and boneheaded movement as you would go through many tolls, cameras at toll booths, traffic cameras set up along the 95 corridor. It doesn't make any logical sense whatsoever. The only thing I can think of that would have pushed him to drive in that direction would be to either a)get as far out of town as possible, or b)perhaps he has a family member/ex-spouse/girlfriend, or a life long friend he felt confident enough that he could trust such a macabre secret with,

Yes I think he’s deranged. Well hopefully as chaotic as his actions were maybe this was something he hasn’t done before. I really hope so!
If not though, IMO he wouldn’t have stopped with Jassy.

When we see the evil that is done but these perps, it is easy to say they are crazy, deranged, psychopaths, disturbed etc. But normal people do terrible things too. So I always try to consider the perps to be sane, until their past history tells me otherwise.

This guy got through grad school and worked at Raytheon as an engineer, so unless things started going bad for him mentally in the last couple of months, he seems normal to me. And he actually looks normal, IMO.

It appears that JC may have been dead by the time she entered his apartment, so the cover up actions of the crime may be kind of helter-skelter by someone who didn't what to do. I do hope to get an answer as to why LC headed so far South, as I can't make any sense of that.

 

[Beekarina]

Well, we also have the call from Coleman to police a week or so prior where he was frightened by "Continuous knocking" at his apartment door.

I'm not defending the crime, but it's * possible* Coleman is mentally ill, or suffering some kind of break. I don't want to offer a theory from long ago undergrad psych courses, but if there is a verified expert reading, maybe they have thoughts on what could cause that sort of thing?

I think someone can be disturbed while still being aware and culpable for their actions. I do, however, think that in order to murder someone there has to be a degree of “disturbed”.

dragging a body around the apartment complex... really? he had to be aware of the cameras. just strange. also, can't help but wonder what he said to JC that got her to leave with him after just a few minutes. Do we know what the victim did to earn an income?

I believe he was a systems engineer? If so, friends with same title earn a nice 6 figure income, or close to it, in the Metro Boston area.

Edited: Sorry, you asked about Jassy. She was a hostess at a restaurant in Boston. A steakhouse, I believe? I've left the area, and the name wasn't familiar to me.

Second edit: Del Friscos. It looks like a very high end restaurant.

Maybe he has a Sailboat in Delaware,

Being born and raised in Delaware, I can say that there aren't very many places to sail an actual sailboat. There's a few rivers where you could use a rowboat or a smaller type trolling-esque boat in order to fish. In order to use a sailboat, yacht, or any type of bigger sea-faring vehicle you would need to head down to either the Indian River Inlet, or the Dewey Beach/Rehoboth Beach/Fenwick Island or even Ocean City, Maryland.

If this piece of trash coming from Boston was pulled over in Stanton (which is what most would consider a suburb of Wilmington, Delaware -- the most populated city in our state yet no the capital of the state), then he still had another approximately 2-3 hour drive to arrive at those beach locations. Just some directional information from a born and raised Delawarean (MAN! Does it truly hurt to say that sentence out loud! )

 

[Synergizer Bunny]

...can't help but wonder what he said to JC that got her to leave with him after just a few minutes...

Didn't the article say that JC is seen conversing with several individuals around 2 a.m. and then LC approaches her and talks to her a few minutes. I think that she was looking for her ride to go home and discovered her friends had left.

Before she could call anyone, he approached her and said that he would give her a lift. He looks innocent enough. I imagine JC was naïve like I was at that age and didn't suspect anything. Very tragic indeed.

I also agree with you that a Systems Engineer who is creating apps knows that there are security cameras everywhere and that he had to have been seen with her.

I have to think that he has a screw loose to drag her to his apartment knowing full well that this activity was all being caught on camera.

I would like to know what the heck happened in that hour between leaving the bar and first arriving at his home at 2 a.m. I really think that there was a struggle, and she was murdered at this time.

Why on earth didn't this guy put her shirt back on her body? Why did he take her to his apartment? Wow.

 

[scarletstar]

I just realized he had her for 4 days. Do we know if he went to work those days?

 

[Plo_Koon]

He drugged her, kidnapped her, killed her in his providence apartment and they caught him in Delaware with her body in his trunk .#JassyCorreia

BREAKING: Court documents out of Delaware show Coleman is accused of "mutilation of dead human body." Details to come on @wpri12

Tim White on Twitter

@HayLouise , or anyone else who can answer this question for me as I am somewhat of a novice when it comes to this. Do you know where or how I would go about finding the documents relating to this case on the Delaware Court website? I have managed to get myself to the Delaware Superior Court website, but as of now I am at a complete loss. It's really my first time trying to locate such things.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, and a thousand thank you's in advance.

Amazing work by LE across multiple agencies.

I found it interesting that the US Attorney, Andrew E. Lelling, said camera footage at his apartment showed Coleman carrying a body, rather than Jassy.

It makes me wonder if the authorities now believe she was already deceased by the time he took her back there. I also noticed Mr. Lelling said it was about two hours after Coleman and Jassy were seen in downtown that they arrived at the apartment.

Contrary to earlier reports, the body was not dismembered or mutilated.

However, LE also found inside his car a pair of pruning tools, a butane lighter, a gas container, a pair of pliers and more. I’m glad they caught him when they did.

ugh why would he take her back to his place if she was already deceased? wait don't answer that.
