body found last night in southern bed-stuy

I was walking home from the train down Brooklyn Ave and at a house near Herkimer, police tape blocked off the building's entrance. Channel 4 / NBC was there so I asked what was going on. They said a missing woman's body had been found inside. Does anyone know anything more about this?

It was in the paper this morning. I think it said she was 38 or 39, had been missing from November (If I remember correctly).

That is horrible. Which paper? Had she been dead that entire time or just recently? Was it suicide, homocide?

I read it in the Daily News.

Sad story.
Strange news coverage. (not quite sure what to label that Daily news coverage)
Quite a comment thread that followed the story.

This is quite the Peyton Place story isn't it? The DN coverage sucks. Why put two reporters on to report half a story? I'm with the guy who said this would have been kicked back in any HS journalism class.

This is just terrible. I saw a memorial out there today and the garbage men were out there talking about it and some woman in passing, too. They had said that the super had been arrested for her murder but the article doesn't state that. This is terrible. I am so sorry for her family's loss.
