New camera footage has captured the moment Queens mother Orsolya Gaal’s killer rushed down the sidewalk with her body in a duffel bag after stabbing her 60 times last weekend. 
Gaal, 51, killed in the early hours of Saturday after returning home from a night out with friends. 
Police believe she was attacked in her home by someone she knew in the basement, based on the fact there was no sign of forced entry at the $2million home. 
Her husband Howard Klein and Jamie, the older of her two sons, were out of town on campus visits. Gaal’s 13-year-old son Leo’s room is on the top floor of the home. He was questioned by police but was released without charge on Saturday. 
Cops want to question a man they believe had a past romantic relationship with Gaal and specific knowledge of the family’s home, sources said.
Detectives want to question a former handyman lover who had intimate knowledge of her home — including where the family kept a spare key, The Post has learned.
The man, who has not yet been formally identified as a person of interest or suspect in the gruesome killing, is believed to have had a romantic relationship with the 51-year-old married mother of two before the affair went south, law-enforcement sources said.
It’s unclear when the relationship began and ended, but according to sources familiar with the case, the man knew where the family kept a spare key at their well-kept Forest Hills homer and would have been able to access the home without breaking in.

The autopsy, Tuesday, stated that Gaal sustained about 60 sharp force injuries to her neck, torso and left arm, according to the sources. Puncture wounds were discovered on her carotid artery and trachea, the sources said. 
She was also discovered with knife wounds inside her fingers and on the palms of her hands, according to the sources.
Gaal police said, was stabbed nearly 60 times sometime in the wee hours Saturday inside the front of the home, with her corpse then taken to the basement. She was stashed in a black Bauer hockey bag similar to one belonging to her kids, and the carryon containing her body was then dragged outside and dumped about a half-mile away, cops said. 
Police sources have said they believe the killer knew Gaal because there were no signs of a break-in, and that considering the violent nature of the crime, they suspect the attack was personal and fueled by anger specifically toward her. 
Detectives have indicated that they also want to speak with three men with whom Gaal had been exchanging texts before her death. In their continuing investigations, cops put up posters around the neighborhood offering a $3,500 reward in exchange for tips. 

No suspects have been named, but unconfirmed reports point in the direction of someone known to at least one of the couple. While her husband out of town, Gaal had been out on a date with an unknown man the night on Friday. 
PIX11 reports that the victim’s husband Howard Klein received a text from his wife’s phone that was written by her killer in the early hours of Saturday morning, warning him not to call police, that read: ‘Your wife sent me to jail some years ago. I’m back,’ according to the sources.
It was later reported that detectives had identified a person of interest but the NYPD on Tuesday which police are yet to confirm. 
Surveillance footage captured someone wheeling the bag containing her remains away from the house at around 4.30am on Saturday morning but the identity of the person in that footage has not been released. 

The ‘person if interest’ is a man who had access to the home, and who knew Gaal, police sources said.
As of Monday night that detectives are trying to reach three men whose numbers were found in her cell phone. 
It has also been reported that she sat in a local bar in Forrest Hills around 40 minutes before returning home on Friday night. 
She had been to see a show at the Lincoln Center, according to. It’s unclear which bar she was seen inside but she sat alone, as if waiting for someone, according to the unnamed sources.

After Gaal’s dismembered body was found less than half a mile from her family home in Forrest Hills, Queens, on Saturday morning, stuffed inside a hockey-style bag, police followed a trail of blood from there to her home, where they believe the 51-year-old was brutally murdered in the basement by an as-yet unidentified killer. 
There was no sign of anyone at the property on Monday as police moved evidence out of the home in boxes and black trash bags. 

Cops want to question a man they believe had a past romantic relationship with Gaal and specific knowledge of the family’s home, sources said.
The man, who has not been formally identified as a person of interest or suspect in the gruesome slaying yet, is believed to be a past romantic interest of the married mother-of-two. The subject
is said, would have been familiar enough with the family’s home to know how to gain access without breaking in.
Police sources have said they believe the killer knew Gaal because there were no signs of a break-in, and that considering the violent nature of the crime, they suspect the attack was personal and fueled by anger specifically toward her. 

On Friday evening, Gaal headed out with friends to see a show at Lincoln Center before returning to Queens around midnight and hitting a bar in her neighborhood, where she hung out for about 40 minutes alone, apparently waiting for someone, police sources said. 
The bar owner’s son, Samson Cornejo, confirmed that Gaal was a regular at the 5 Burro Cafe, although he’s not sure she was there late Friday. 
“Her house is a 10-minute walk. … She comes here, y’know, she’s been here before. She used to come with some Russian ladies”.
“I saw the bag, where they found it, after I left that night. I drove by it after leaving here. I couldn’t believe when I heard. It smacked me when I saw her picture!” Cornejo told NYPost on Tuesday. 

In May 2020, Gaal was briefly reported missing to police after her husband called 911 and said she’d gone for a walk around midnight and wasn’t home by the time he woke up the next morning.
About two months later, she posted an ominous message to a community Facebook page asking for information on how to buy pepper spray. 
“Given the recent attack on a woman in Forest Park and the general uptick of crime and seedy characters in the neighborhood, I sought info here to get mace / pepper spray for my runs in the park,” the post states. 
“Be safe out there!” she wrote. 

NYPD officers were seen at the family home on Monday morning in Forrest Hills, Queens. Police believe Gaal was killed in the basement then dragged out of the house in a bag. Tributes to the 51-year-old mother were left outside her house in Queens on Monday morning. No one has been arrested 

Detectives are investigating who the married mother was with the night before she died. 
She had told her younger son that she was out with friends, going to a show, but unconfirmed sources say she might have been with a man who was not her husband. 
Police do know that she returned home safely the night she died. 

However, the surveillance footage does not reveal the identity of the person who dragged the bag containing her body. 
‘Something is not adding up. But there are cameras along the way. They’ll tell if it’s an adult or a child,’ one unnamed police source said.  
‘She knew the people she was out with. We’re talking to them. We also have to figure out, did she meet some mysterious stranger along the way?’ they added.
