Ronald Fischetti, 29, was found murdered in his Howard Beach, Queens, apartment in the pre-dawn hours of June 10, 1981. His fiancée discovered him in the kitchen with multiple gunshot wounds to his back and head. At the time he worked for Patty Testa Motor Car Service and was known to associate with individuals connected to organized crime.

Investigators say Fischetti had been seen speaking with two men inside his apartment shortly before the shooting; witnesses later reported those two men driving away in a Mercedes-Benz. That same day members of the DeMeo crew met with associates from the Colombo and Lucchese families in Brooklyn about a federal indictment tied to an international auto theft ring. No arrests were ever made, the two men seen leaving the scene have not been publicly identified, and the case went cold amid a lack of cooperating witnesses and forensic leads. The official motive remains unknown, though speculation has centered on his organized crime connections.

Did anyone in Howard Beach or the surrounding neighborhoods see the Mercedes-Benz or those two men that morning?
