Arizona prosecutor plays politics with a New York murder
As murder cases go, the case against accused killer Raad Almansoori seems pretty open and shut.
Cops have video of him leaving and entering his victim’s hotel. They have him on camera wearing women’s leggings, and found bloody jeans with his credit card information in the victim’s room.
And, if that weren’t enough, police in Arizona, where Almansoori allegedly fled after the Manhattan hotel room death of Denisse Oleas-Arancibia, said he urged them to Google the words “murder” and “SoHo hotel.” With that, he all but confessed to the grisly crime.
“This death was caused by blunt force trauma to the head,” said NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny. “A broken iron was recovered at the scene, and recovered bits of plastic were found embedded in her skull.”
Cops said Oleas-Arancibia was also strangled.
Even a soft-on-crime prosecutor could get a conviction here. It’s a layup. A slam........
