The duffel bag was spotted by Van Nostrand near Metropolitan Avenue and Forest Park Drive in Queens, New York.

The man's two dogs led him to the discovery and helped investigators discover a fresh blood trail.

Investigators said Ms Gaal's body was still intact and not dismembered.

Cops were then led to Ms Gaal's $2million home half a mile away on Juno Street, where they found her 13-year-old son alone.

The teen did not know his mothers' whereabouts, cops said. Neighbors told the New York Post he was led away in handcuffs. He was questioned and released.

Meanwhile, Ms Gaal's husband, Howard Klein, and their 17-year-old son were reportedly out-of-state.

Cops said they were returning back to New York.

The two men are people of interest in the case, officials with inside knowledge told the New York Post.

Ms Gaal's Facebook profile shows numerous photos of her with a dog, some with New York City in the background.

She attended the Budapest Business School College of International Management and Business, according to her Facebook profile.

On New Year's Eve, Gaal posted a photo of her family with the caption: "Happy new year to all of you dear friends and family!
Hoping 2022 will be a great one!"

Klein's Twitter suggests he is a lithium trader and founder of RK Equity.

His LinkedIn shows he attended the University of Michigan, which is allegedly where he was with the 17-year-old son at the time of the incident.

He has not immediately returned a request for comment.

'I DON'T FEEL SAFE'

Neighbors in the area are rattled by the discovery.

“I’m sick to my stomach,” Mara Newman told the New York Post.

"I don’t feel safe. I’m not going to be walking here at night. I can’t believe there is a … body thrown on the side of the road.”

"My heart was in my throat the entire time."
