A Long Island man has been charged with strangling his pregnant girlfriend and dumping her body on the side of the road before driving off. The shocking crime was caught on traffic cam video which led to the man’s arrest. 

Police arrested Goey Charles in connection with the death of his girlfriend.


Goey Charles, 29, has been charged with murder in the death of his girlfriend, whose body was found Friday morning alongside the Horace Harding Expressway. 


“This is a heartbreaking case. A pregnant woman was allegedly killed by this defendant – the father of her unborn child. Her family is devastated,” said Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz. “The defendant is in custody and will answer for his alleged actions.” 


The callous act of dumping the dying pregnant woman on the side of the highway was spread throughout social media. NYPD Chief of Detectives Rodney Harrison tweeted out the video which shows a man, allegedly  Charles, driving the victim’s car to Horace Harding Expressway. The man is seen taking 29-year-old Vanessa Pierre out of the car and dragging her face down onto the sidewalk. 


Charles, of Uniondale, is being held pending arraignment in Queens Criminal Court on a complaint charging him with murder in the second degree. If convicted, Cohen faces up to 25 years-to-life in prison. 


The DA said, on Friday, October 23, 2020, at about 2:50 a.m. video surveillance shows the defendant pull over at 216-07 Horace Harding Expressway. Charles exited the driver’s seat of a 2019 white Dodge Challenger, which is registered in the name of the victim, Vanessa Pierre. He moved to the backseat where Pierre could be seen moving on the video footage. And then soon afterwards, all movement stopped and the victim appeared to lay across the backseat motionless. 


At approximately 4:38 a.m., the defendant is observed exiting the vehicle and then allegedly dragging the pregnant woman out of the car and dropping her body onto the sidewalk. 


According to the charges, the defendant allegedly left the woman’s dying body on the side of the roadway, returned to the vehicle and fled the scene. 

DA Katz said that, at approximately 6 a.m., a passerby saw the 29-year-old woman on the ground in front of 216-07 Horace Harding Parkway. 

Pierre had gray sweatpants wrapped around her neck. She was unresponsive and unconscious and responding EMS technicians pronounced her dead at the scene. 


The defendant was identified in a photo array and in video stills and apprehended yesterday evening by members of the New York City Police Department’s 111th Precinct Detective Squad. 


Criminal complaints and indictments are accusations. A defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
