Angel Marrero-Padilla, 21, was identified by Philadelphia police after a grim discovery in Kensington in late June 2012. He lived on Boudinot Street and was found bound and burning; investigators declared his death a homicide and said he died from blunt force trauma. Reports describe a scene in which a young man had clearly been restrained, attacked, set on fire, and left at the location where he was found.

By the following Wednesday authorities had publicly named him, but available details do not explain how he came to be at that location, who last saw him alive, or what led up to the killing. The case remains focused on the circumstances of the discovery and the medical finding of blunt force trauma rather than on a known motive or identified offender.

If anyone saw Angel in Kensington or has information about his movements before that late June 2012 discovery, please come forward.
