A former butcher who copped to choking his wife and then dismembering her body led cops Tuesday to the last of her remains in Forest Park in Queens. Hit the jump to read the rest of the story.
Edwin Fuentes, 44, had agreed as part of a plea deal to show cops where to find the remains of his wife, Reina De Los Santos Reyes, a mother of two, authorities said.
The remains, the last parts of her skeleton still missing, were found inside of a plastic bag within the park, which is near where the couple once lived in Woodhaven.
Fuentes reached the plea deal with prosecutors last week, admitting to killing Reyes, 42, in June 2007.
In March 2008, two passersby in Forest Park found some of her remains, stashed in suitcases.
Fuentes, who was arrested last year, faces 20 years in prison when he is sentenced Nov. 9 before Queens Supreme Court Justice Gregory Lasak.
