Go was killed on January 15 when she was shoved into the path of an oncoming subway train at the Times Square station.
Her suspected assailant is a 61-year-old man who was experiencing homelessness and had a documented history of mental health incidents; he surrendered to police shortly after the killing and has been charged with second-degree murder.
