Brooklyn Man Killed with Corkscrew
A 55-year-old man was found stabbed to death in his Prospect Heights apartment Wednesday night. Police say that Murat St. Hilaire was stabbed in the head with a corkscrew.
Carline Renelique, the mother of Hilaire's three children, was worried when she didn't hear from him on Wednesday morning (they do not live together, but he called her every morning). Newsday reports that when she realized he never arrived at Wycoff Heights Medical Center, where he worked as an orderly, she went to his apartment on Park Place with their 11-year-old daughter. There, girl and a neighbor found St. Hilaire lying face up, in his bedroom.
Renelique told Newsday, "My daughter went inside and came outside saying, 'Daddy's dead! Daddy's dead! Somebody stabbed him!' ...Nobody deserves to die like that. He was a nice guy."
No arrests have been made and the investigation is ongoing.

I guess someone really popped his cork.
If they'd been drinking Thunderbird or Night Train Express (which come in screw-on cap bottles), the dude would still be alive and kicking.
Such an awful way to die and for that poor child to find her father dead. I fail to see the humor in that Ralph and Peter.
Finally, a murder in New York that actually resembles a murder on 'CSI:New York'!
hey JRod, want some cheese with your whine?
yeah peter and ralph, that is F'd up...they should have been drinking cisco.
What would Lenny Briscoe say when he saw this scene?
I hardly ever send my kids into a room where someone might have been murdered.
