Naked body of high-end escort is stuffed in a drum and taken out of luxury Wall St apartment and dumped in New Jersey

THE NAKED body of a woman found stuffed in a 55-gallon drum in New Jersey is a high-end escort who was wheeled out of a Wall Street building, according to local reports. 

New York police were poring over surveillance video showing a man rolling the barrel on a luggage rack with Nicole Flanagan’s corpse in it out of the posh 95 Wall Street high-rise and into a U-Haul van at around 10:45pm on Aug. 12. 

The next morning 14 miles north across the Hudson River, residents in Ridgefield Park detected a foul odor and soon found the large plastic vessel ditched in a pile of refuse on the street, according to the New York Post, citing both New Jersey police and NYPD sources.

The naked body of a high-end escort was stuffed into a 55-gallon drum in New York City and dumped in New Jersey, the Post reported.

The grisly find alarmed the quiet town of 13,000 people.

A relative of the victim identified her as 42-year-old Nicole Flanagan, a mother of three who split time between a home in Greenwich, Connecticut and the Fordham section of the Bronx, according to the Daily Voice.

The Post reported that a police source confirmed Flanagan was arrested in the past for prostitution.

A security guard at the Wall Street building initially quizzed the man who brought the drum, but he backed off after he claimed to be moving. 

He apparently didn’t draw more suspicion after returning with the drum attached to the luggage rack. 

The doorman building in Manhattan’s Financial District had been converted from offices to luxury apartments and features a rooftop terrace and lounge, an outdoor basketball court and a fitness center.

The studio, one- and two-bedroom units are rented out on Airbnb, the Post reported.

The location has also racked up a number of complaints with NYPD, police told the publication.

A tenant occupying an apartment on the 22nd floor said police took down his neighbor’s door where two twenty-something men were living. 

“The police are still up there and they’re looking for the two guys,” the anonymous resident told the Post, adding he frequently saw them around. 

The man suspects he started seeing the two men in the building around the same time the Covid-19 pandemic set in last year.

“They were cool looking, young,” he said. 

“You wouldn’t think anything of them. 

“They were very respectful to me and always would start a conversation with me in the hall.”

The last time he heard or saw the pair was at around 11pm on Aug. 11, one day before Flanagan’s body was allegedly removed. 

By Thursday morning they had fled.

“The police asked me if I smelled anything funny,” the man said.

The two men apparently kept up a pot smoking habit. 

“But [the two men] smoked pot 24/7. I just smelled pot and bad air freshener, but I didn’t smell anything out of the ordinary,” the tenant told the Post.
