Moses allegedly strong-armed a garbage man into aiding him in getting rid of the remains of 32-year-old Leondra Foster. The unidentified man who is cooperating with cops, according to The New York Daily News was coerced into helping Moses conceal Fosters’ remains in heaps of trash at the Metropolitan Transfer Station in Hunts Points last week.
The sanitation employee was said to be cooperating with the investigation.
Fosters’ head, hands and feet were later found stuffed inside the freezer in Moses’ apartment in the Flatbush section of Brooklyn, leading to his arrest on Sunday. One foot had Moses’ name tattooed on it, according to law enforcement sources.
Officers conducting a search of Moses’ apartment also found blood spatter around the residence and men’s and women’s clothing soaked in blood.
Police sources said Foster died of multiple blunt force trauma.
‘We in Brooklyn will seek justice for Leondra Foster, who was so tragically and brutally murdered,” acting Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez said in a statement. ‘Somorie Moses is now charged with second-degree murder for that heinous crime.’

Younger sibling Shanicqua Figueroa, describes her late sister as having found herself trapped in an abusive relationship with Moses, who allegedly beat her on a regular basis.
‘I hope he gets life without parole and gets everything that’s coming to him,’ she said.
Her mother, Sandra Figueroa, vowed to attend every one of Moses’ court appearance, rain or shine. A day earlier the grieving Figueroa described how difficult it was for her to look at her 16-year-old granddaughter because she looks of the close resemblance to her slain mother.

Her enraged father, Kenneth Foster, claimed that his daughter had been subjected to months of domestic abuse at the hands of her boyfriend, before her death and dismemberment.
‘He has a thing against women,’ Foster said of the suspect. ‘We tried to get her to leave him, but she would just get mad at us.’
He added that his daughter’s killer deserved: “medieval torture for the rest of his life,” the bereaved dad fumed. “You cannot be human and do something like that — you’re an animal.”

Investigators later found additional human remains, including a right arm and a left arm, both without hands, in Kearny, New Jersey. Investigators reportedly, used surveillance video at the Hunts Point waste-processing plant and phone records to identify and track down the suspect to his apartment on Erasmus Street in Brooklyn.
