NEW YORK - An 83-year-old ex-con who did two stints in prison — each time for killing a woman — is now charged with murder once again after police found human body parts in and near her apartment and obtained video of her riding a motorized wheelchair with a severed human leg in the seat.A grand jury has indicted Harvey Marcelin, who identifies as a transgender woman, on charges of second-degree murder, evidence tampering, and concealing a dead body in connection with the death of Susan Leyden, 68, of Brooklyn.Leyden's torso was found in a shopping cart on the corner of Pennsylvania Avenue and Atlantic Avenue in the Cypress Hills section on March 3.
Police said the body was in a large plastic bag inside the cart. The woman's head, arms, and legs were missing. Police said on Feb.
27, Leyden was seen on a security video entering 50 Pennsylvania Avenue with the same shopping cart her body was later found in.
Marcelin lives in an apartment in that building, police said. Marcelin was seen on surveillance video inside a store getting up from a wheelchair and exposing a leg on the seat, Chief of Detectives James Essig said.
