NYPD Releases Video Of Serial Killer Harvey Marcelin Sitting On Dismembered Victim’s Leg

The New York City Police Department released a video Monday of convicted killer Harvey Marcelin sitting on a human leg while riding around a store in a motorized scooter.

Police released the video, suggesting Marcelin, who allegedly killed 68-year-old Susan Leyden and dismembered her body, rode around with a human leg following the murder.

In the video, Marcelin, 83, can be seen at a 99 cent store on a motorized scooter but gets up at one point, and the leg can be seen in the seat. Marcelin is later seen sitting on the scooter and talking to someone in the store.

Days after Leyden’s torso was found in the East New York neighbor of Brooklyn, a human leg was discovered blocks away. However, police have yet to announce whether the human leg has been linked to Leyden’s case.

At about 11:40 a.m. on Feb. 27, Leyden was seen entering Marcelin’s apartment building with a shopping cart. On March 4, Leyden’s torso was found wrapped in a garbage bag in that same shopping cart.

The video comes as Marcelin was arrested again Monday on charges of murder and tampering with physical evidence in Leyden’s death. Marcelin was initially arrested last week on charges of concealing a corpse.

Based on what NYPD investigators have found in Marcelin’s latest case development, the chief of detectives revealed that officials will review cases from the last three years to see if the suspect may be involved.

Marcelin has a history of arrests dating back to 1957. Marcelin’s arrest record includes felony assault, rape, and manslaughter, among other charges.

In 1963, Marcelin was arrested in the shooting death of Jacqueline Bonds and sentenced to 20 years to life. Marcelin was released in 1984 on conditions of lifetime parole.

Marcelin was arrested again a few years later after stabbing a woman to death and released in 2019 on parole.
