The similarities between the cases prompted police to set a trap: a mannequin, wrapped in blankets like a sleeping homeless man with his head covered, was placed where the first man was killed. Schindler’s bail is currently set at $50,000 and prosecutors have not charged him in the slayings of the two homeless men. In 2015, a homeless man was stabbed to death as he slept in a downtown Denver alley. Aldape was the man killed Jan. 3 near the intersection of Ogden Avenue and City Parkway. Dunn’s death came a month later in the same location as he slept near some landscaping bushes.
