The arrests are the result of an investigation conducted by the Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office under the direction of Chief Robert Anzilotti, the Bergen County Sheriff’s Office under the direction of Sheriff Anthony Cureton, and the Cresskill Police Department under the direction of Chief Edward Wrixon.

On Monday, June 15, 2020, at approximately 12:26 a.m., the Cresskill Police Department received a 911 call reporting that Divna Rosasco was missing. At approximately 1:36 a.m., officers from the Bergen County Sheriff’s Office located Ms. Rosasco’s unoccupied vehicle parked in a lot at Overpeck County Park in Teaneck, NJ. A K-9 search of the surrounding area immediately tracked a scent to the end of a dock in a creek located in the park. Officers located the victim, Divna Rosasco’s, body submerged in the water covered in a bed sheet with a plastic bag around her head. The body had been weighted down with cinder blocks, rope and duct tape.

A short time later, officers located NICOLAS COIRAZZA and a juvenile attempting to leave the area in an Uber in a nearby hotel parking lot. Both individuals were taken in for questioning by the Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office. An investigation revealed that COIRAZZA was known to the victim’s family and was visiting her home in Cresskill when the murder occurred. COIRAZZA then enlisted the help of the juvenile to dispose of the victim’s body.

On Monday, June 15, 2020, NICOLAS COIRAZZA was arrested and charged with one count of Murder, in violation of N.J.S.A. 2C:11-3, a 1st degree crime; one count of Possession Of A Weapon For An Unlawful Purpose, in violation of N.J.S.A. 2C:39-4D, a 3rd degree crime; one count of Disturbing Human Remains, in violation of N.J.S.A. 2C:22-1(1), a 2nd degree crime; one count of Hindering Apprehension Of Another, in violation of N.J.S.A. 2C:29-3(a)(1)(2)(3), a 3rd degree crime; and one count of Hindering Apprehension Of Self, in violation of N.J.S.A. 2C:29-3(a)(1)(2)(3), a 3rd degree crime; and one count of Tampering With Evidence, in violation of N.J.S.A. 2C:28-6(1), a 4th degree crime. He was remanded to the Bergen County Jail pending his first appearance in Central Judicial Processing Court in Hackensack, NJ.

On Monday, June 15, 2020, a juvenile was arrested and charged on Juvenile Complaints with one count of Disturbing Human Remains, in violation of N.J.S.A. 2C:22-1(1), a 2nd degree crime; one count of Hindering Apprehension Of Another, in violation of N.J.S.A. 2C:29-3(a)(1)(2)(3), a 3rd degree crime; one count of Hindering Apprehension Of Self, in violation of N.J.S.A. 2C:29-3(a)(1)(2)(3) a 3rd degree crime; and one count of Tampering With Evidence, in violation of N.J.S.A. 2C:28-6(1), a 4th degree crime.
