REMAINS OF MISSING WOMAN FOUND DAYS BEFORE BRONX MAN SET TO STAND TRIAL FOR HER MURDER

NASEAN BONIE & RAMONA MOORE

He was about to become the first man in The Bronx tried for murder without a body — until the corpse turned up.

The remains of mom-of-four Ramona Moore were found in Orange County on Friday, just days before Nasean Bonie, who’s charged with her murder, was set to have a hearing in the years-old case.

Two years after Moore mysteriously disappeared in July 2012, Bonie, 29, was indicted by a Bronx grand jury on murder and manslaughter charges – even though her body was never found.

Moore, 35, went missing from her apartment at 663 Jefferson Place near Crotona Park in The Bronx after arguing with Bonie, the building’s superintendent, sources said.

But a break in the case came when Bonie suggested to a pal that he had a role in her disappearance, giving prosecutors enough to indict him, sources said.

Utility workers found Moore’s skeletal remains near Route 208 and Captain Carpenter Road in Blooming Grove, sources said.

The remains were positively identified as Moore on Monday and her family was notified, sources added.

Bonie will appear in Bronx Supreme Court on Wednesday for sentencing on a 2012 assault conviction involving his then-girlfriend, as well as for a conference hearing on Moore’s murder.

He pleaded not guilty to the murder and manslaughter charges.
