Anthony Edward Marrero, 44, was last seen on May 6, 1993, in midtown Manhattan near the Port Authority Bus Terminal, where he worked the streets as a sex worker. On May 10, 1993, plastic bags containing his dismembered remains were found along Crow Hill Road in Manchester Township, New Jersey. His body had been cut into seven pieces and washed; the medical examiner determined multiple stab wounds caused his death.

Investigators later linked Marrero’s killing to a series of similar cases from the early 1990s in which men who had been in Manhattan’s gay bars or the midtown corridor vanished and were later found dismembered in garbage bags along highways. Fingerprints lifted from the bags that held Marrero’s remains were eventually matched to a 1973 Maine arrest for Richard W. Rogers Jr. Police arrested Rogers in 2001; his trial resulted in convictions on November 10, 2005, including the murder tied to Marrero, and he received consecutive prison terms on January 27, 2006. Some related cases remain unresolved.

Did anyone who knew Anthony in Manhattan in spring 1993 see or hear something that could still help investigators tie up the remaining linked cases?
