But when the sister arrived at the apartment and called their mother&#8217;s cell phone numerous times, there was no answer.<\/p>\n<p>Eventually Osvaldo Diaz picked up and told his sister to go to the store alone. When she returned, she was again met with unanswered calls, prompting her to summon the landlord for access into the apartment.<\/p>\n<p>When access to the apartment was granted, they found Maria Diaz&#8217;s bleeding body wrapped in bedding, with\u00a0her brother gone. According to the indictment, video surveillance recorded him leaving the apartment after his sister left for the store.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-136205\" src=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/01\/chioma_adebiyi\/2022\/01\/18\/61e65be213c0f.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"474\" height=\"361\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/01\/chioma_adebiyi\/2022\/01\/18\/61e65be213c0f.jpg 474w, https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/01\/chioma_adebiyi\/2022\/01\/18\/61e65be213c0f-300x228.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/01\/chioma_adebiyi\/2022\/01\/18\/61e65be213c0f-86x64.jpg 86w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Diaz was declared <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2021\/10\/02\/two-kids-spend-days-with-dead-mother-in-apartment\/\">dead<\/a> though no motive was given for the alleged murder.\u00a0The prosecutor&#8217;s office says the alleged killer was on the run for a week before he was caught in New Jersey, where he remained until he was returned last week to Queens for his arraignment\u00a0on a charge of second-degree murder.
