Jason Bohn, 33, a law school grad accused of killing his gal pal, Danielle Thomas, 27, was arrested Friday.
The man wanted for killing his girlfriend in their Queens apartment was collared by police after they spotted him dining with his lawyer and his mother, authorities said Saturday.
Jason Bohn, 33 — a law school grad accused of killing his gal pal, Danielle Thomas, 27 — was eating dinner with his lawyer at a restaurant in White Plains when cops cuffed him about 8:00 p.m. Friday, the sources said.
He was later charged with murder, criminal contempt and tampering with evidence. He was waiting to be arraigned Saturday afternoon.
Police found Thomas’s body in a bathtub filled with bags of ice in her Astoria apartment Tuesday night, sources said. The gruesome discovery came after Bohn called police to report an accident at the home, sources said.
An autopsy found that Thomas had been choked and beaten.
Investigators found two handwritten notes inside the apartment.
“It was an accident,” one of the notes read. “I had been drinking and I was drunk when I got home...I woke up and there was fighting between us. When I woke up again she was unconscious.”
Bohn — who attended Columbia Law School and has a law degree from the University of Florida — was arrested in early June for assaulting Thomas. He allegedly knocked Thomas out during an argument in their 33rd St. home.
While Thomas was reporting the attack at the 114th Precinct stationhouse, Bohn called her and threatened her, sources said.
Police listened to Bohn on speaker phone as he told her, “I’ll dedicate my life to hunting you down like a dog,” the sources said.
He was later released without bail and an order of protection was issued.
