A man in New York has been given 25 years to life in prison for
killing his estranged wife 35 years ago by stabbing her more than a 100
times. Associated Press reports:
State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman
(SHNEYE’-dur-muhn) says 60-year-old Michael Rodriguez of
Buffalo
received the maximum sentence Friday in Erie County state Supreme Court.
State police investigators brought the case to Schneiderman’s office
in June 2013. Officials say DNA testing of 21-year-old Patricia Scinta
Rodriguez’s clothing led to her husband being charged with second-degree
murder.
Authorities say the mother of two was stabbed 108 times and her body
was left in a cemetery in Lackawanna, near Buffalo. Her body was found
the morning of Good Friday in April 1979.
Investigators began re-examining the case in 2009 at the request of Lackawanna police.
