Luis Blanco, 62, of Yonkers, New York, was scheduled to meet a man who owed him money on August 19, 2015. He was reported missing that day; a jogger found a decomposing body by the side of Route 133 in the Town of Ossining on August 24, 2015. An autopsy identified the body as Blanco’s and determined he had been stabbed multiple times in the head, neck, and torso and shot once in the back of the head.

Investigators from the Ossining and Yonkers police departments and the Westchester County District Attorney’s Office traced the killing to Joaquin Recinos Garcia, 28, of Yonkers. Prosecutors say Blanco was picked up in Garcia’s Ford SUV; an unindicted co-conspirator rode in the vehicle.

Garcia was arrested and pleaded guilty to Murder in the First Degree; he received a sentence of twenty years to life. The unindicted co-conspirator’s identity and legal status were not detailed publicly. Does anyone have information about Blanco’s movements that day or about the other person who was in the SUV?
