Ramirez was found dead in the back of a taxi five weeks before Umberger’s death, his family told CBS New York.

Ramirez was also found without a phone and with fraudulent charges on his credit card, his family said. “Someone drugged him to take his phone, to rob him. I mean, that was what happened. There is no doubt that this is what happened,” Carlos Ramírez, Julio’s brother, told CBS New York last May.

Five weeks later, Umberger was last seen leaving Q, a popular nightclub for gay men in Hell’s Kitchen, with two men, his mother told CBS New York in an interview last November.
