There are some more details. Sketchy though.

A motive in the murder has not been announced, but Mashable notes that a cryptic status update on what appears to be McGillvary's Facebook page may hold clues about what prompted the "dark turn" in the viral celebrity's story:

In a Thursday afternoon press conference, Romankow said that Galfy had picked up McGillvary in Times Square May 11 and that the 24-year-old hitchhiker had spent the night at the attorney's house before leaving for Asbury Park, according to Woodbridge Patch.

Internet celebrity hitchhiker with hatchet arrested in murder case

A homeless hitchhiker who achieved Internet celebrity by acting as a Good Samaritan with a hatchet was arrested at a Philadelphia bus depot Thursday in connection with the murder of a New Jersey attorney, authorities said.

McGillvary and Galfy exchanged text messages over the last few days, Romankow said.

"It's more like 'Come pick me up' and 'I'll be there at this time,' " Romankow said. "But not anything of a personal nature."

But investigators believe McGillvary and Galfy had a sexual relationship, Romankow said. "There has been some indication of that on Facebook," the prosecutor said.

Romankow didn't know why the two men were in contact with each other. Investigators also don't know what the motive was for the murder, but they know that the two men were together Sunday evening, the prosecutor said. Galfy was found dead Monday morning in his Clark bedroom, wearing only underwear and socks, Romankow said.

"He was severely beaten," Romankow added.
