BRONX MAN INDICTED FOR MURDERING TWO MEN, 6 DAYS APART


The Defendant Allegedly Shot Both Victims in the Head 

Bronx District Attorney Darcel D. Clark today announced that a Bronx man has been indicted on two counts of second-degree Murder for allegedly killing two people, six days apart. 

District Attorney Clark said, “The defendant allegedly killed his landlord, and just days later allegedly killed a possible witness to the slaying. We are bringing him to justice and will continue to hold perpetrators of gun violence accountable.” 

District Attorney Clark said Jailyn Wagner, 20, last of 852 East 176 Street, was indicted February 20. 2025, on two counts of second-degree Murder, two counts of first-degree Manslaughter, and four counts of second-degree Criminal Possession of Weapon. He was arraigned before Bronx Supreme Court Justice Kim Parker. He was remanded and is due back in court on May 23, 2025.

According to the investigation, on July 23, 2024, at approximately 2:53 a.m., the defendant allegedly shot his landlord, Idriss Cherif El Farissy, 28, multiple times in the head, outside the victim’s apartment building on 852 176th Street. Wagner allegedly fled the scene on a Citi-Bike to a nearby park and then returned after he changed clothes. He then entered his building while police were responding to the murder.

On July 29, 2024, at approximately 3:00 a.m., Wagner allegedly shot Roman Martinez Malave, 39, multiple times in the head inside his mobile home which was parked near East 176th Street and Mohegan Avenue. The victim was living out of the trailer, which was parked half a block away from the July 23rd shooting. The defendant allegedly fled to a park afterwards, changed his clothes, and walked home. 

District Attorney Clark thanked NYPD Detective Dominic Robinson of Bronx Homicide and Detective Chad Poidomani of the 48 Precinct for their work on the case.

An indictment is an accusatory instrument and not proof of a defendant’s guilt.
