FBI experts in serial murders wanted to help in Brooklyn triple homicide
Elected officials are seeking a tri-level task force that would include a collaborative effort between the NYPD, state police, and FBI serial-killer profile experts – just like the ones on TV’s “Criminal Minds” – in the wake of recent revelations that the same gun was used to kill a Brooklyn boutique owner on Friday and two other shopkeepers over the summer.
This past Friday, 78-year-old Rahmatollah Vahidipour of Great Neck was fatally shot in the head in his Brooklyn boutique She She, located in Flatbush. The gunman reportedly dragged Vahidipour’s body toward the back of the store and covered it with clothing.
“He was quiet and worked hard,” said Leon Nwabueze, who owns the Nanso clothing shop across the street from the victim’s store. Richard Vinson, 63, who has lived next door to the boutique for four years, called the victim “a very nice gentleman.”
