The ex-con who robbed and then strangled the owner of a Windsor Terrace dry cleaner in 2008 received the maximum sentence today: 25 years to life in prison. Jamal Winter, who killed beloved Eden Dry Cleaning owner Kyong-Sook Woo while on parole for another robbery nearby, still denies guilt, telling judge Guy Mangano, "I was set up. I was set up and that's what happened ... sometimes you have to pay the consequences." Huh? more ›

A jury found Jamal Winter guilty of second-degree murder for the murder of Kyong-Sook Woo, a dry cleaner in Windsor Terrace. Winter, who was out on parole, was accused of strangling Woo and then using ammonia to burn off his fingerprints. He now faces up to 25 years in prison. The jury did not convict him of first-degree murder; a juror told the Daily News, "We were all over the map. But it was not a compromise." more ›

Police explained how they arrested 22-year-old Jamal Winter in the murder of a Windsor Terrace dry cleaner. Police Commissioner Ray Kelly told reporters:

"Investigators found his fingerprint in the store. They went to question him, he wasn't home. They observed the car, the woman's car, the victim's car, parked in the neighborhood. He had changed the plate. So they waited for him and when he approached the car, they spoke to him, talked to him. He made some admissions and he's been charged with the murder."
