Angelo Nesimi, 33, who was seen inside the barbershop with Stewart, is a person of interest in Stewart’s disappearance,” The Staten Island Advance reported. Nesimi and his girlfriend were previously questioned in the suspected killing of Stewart, the report said.
Investigators cited by The Advance say it’s possible Stewart’s body was dumped in New Jersey then accidentally picked up by sanitation workers and incinerated with other trash. No one has been charged in Stewart’s suspected killing.
