Are they really different? Other than that big black door on the right, even the lady with the umbrella is the same.
Earlier reports from the "digging up the Prince Street basement" days say Othneil Miller gave Etan the dollar bill for helping him clean up his work space.
Hernandez was just 12 years older than his six-year-old victim in 1979 when he allegedly lured him with soda - Etan's mother had given her son a dollar for the treat - and strangled him.
As Hernandez had been taking supplies in and out of the bodega, the door to the basement was open, Kelly said, and he led him down.

Pedro Hernandez, 51, was taken to Bellevue for treatment for a "pre-existing condition," an NYPD source said. The source said he needed medication.

Kelly refused to discuss Hernandez's medical history, but a source said he had told detectives he was bipolar.

So, here is a picture of where the bus stop is.
Would that be the bodega, that has the picture of Etan on it?
I believe this is correct, but, someone please advise if I am looking at this improperly.

This is another image of the bus stop, but, it is not transferrable.

Note that the 2 pictures are very different. You can see the black railings in this picture, not sure if they are the same ones as the current day store front. I believe they are now on the other side of the building, where the mannequins are. Difficult to decipher.
After seeing that great reference picture that the NY Post put out, that I just posted ^^, I can't believe how short the geographical distance is for everything. Isn't that white building on the corner in the picture, a landmark for Soho? I swear I just seen that building on a Soho Tourism site last night.
This is absolutely devastating, that a boy can't walk that short distance without being stolen and murdered.
I actually believe that LE finally has their man.
Prayers to the Patzes.
Rest in Peace, Etan
Sorry if someone has allready asked or said something about this allready..I havn't heard anything one way or the other but If this guy is to be believed Does that mean It's just case closed as far as etan goes . I cant imagine they would dig through a garbage pit to try and find remains thats been barried for 30 years.. Have the LE said what they plan to do or not do about the remains ?
I also wonder this. After this long of a time I would think there isn't much that they can do to find the remains but I could be wrong on this...I hope I am.
Unfortunately, if his body ended up in the trash, there's no hope of finding him. Fresh Kills on Staten Island was the primary landfill for NYC for 50 years. When it closed in 2001, it was 2200 acres and 25 meters taller than the Statue of Liberty. And that was before it was reopened temporarily to accommodate the WTC debris. I shudder to think how many missing persons may actually be in Fresh Kills.

Here is my list of possible scenarios:
1. Pedro Rodriguez was teased by kids while he worked on the store, spotted one of them on the way to school, lured the kid into the basement, killed him, disposed of him.
2. Pedro Rodriguez randomly decided one morning to kill a kid walking past him while he was on the job. Then he dumped the body.
3. Pedro Rodriguez is a pedophile, saw a cute kid and was compelled to molest and kill the child.
4. Pedro Rodriguez decided to make up a story to ease the troubled hearts of someone he didn't know. Perhaps because he has psychological problems.
5. Pedro Rodriguez has cancer, wants to leave his wife and adult daughter with some money. So he made up a story hoping they can make a buck or two selling their story to the book publishers and talk shows.
Since Fresh Kills is closed now its name is something of an oxymoron; but back when it was in full operation that name was eerily accurate, considering the newly dead bodies it must have harbored.
