Karina Vetrano was viciously beaten and strangled "until she could not struggle anymore" -- then, in a final indignity, the 30-year-old New Yorker's body was left naked in a weed-covered patch of land, where her executioner robbed her and fled.

Prosecutors on Tuesday revealed the gruesome details of the Queens jogger’s August 2016 assault and murder, as the trial of her accused killer, Chanel Lewis, got underway. Vetrano's mother, Cathie Vetrano, was in the courtroom as Queens Assistant District Attorney Brad Leventhal recounted the graphic details, and was seen sobbing and clutching a crucifix, according to the New York Daily News.

Leventhal said Vetrano tried to fight off Lewis.

“And he strangled her until she could not struggle anymore. He strangled her until she was dead,” Leventhal said.

Photos from the crime scene of Vetrano’s naked body were shown in court.

Leventhal said, after Lewis killed Vetrano, he carried her body into a weed-covered area, removed her sneakers and took her phone and earbuds. ..."

Vetrano was attacked as she jogged in Spring Creek Park, not far from her home in Queens’ Howard Beach.

Lewis purportedly told cops he killed Vetrano because he was "angry."

"I was angry.

I had some issues at home.

I just lost it.

When I saw her, I just hit her and kept hitting her.

I hit her and choked her,"

“I’m feeling I did not do enough to have her vigilant”


We all feel that way———letting go is hard,but you just put them in God’s hands and move on.

Not seeing any remorse on that punk’s puss.

Do see what looks like body armor under the sweater.

Between the eyes would work.

I hung out around that area and nearby Ozone Park between 1970-90. He's damn lucky the "boys" from back then didn't catch him before the cops did. There's still a heavy Italian presence there, but not like then. Big money there in Howard Beach.

Karina Vetrano Dad Spotted With Club

The grieving father of slain jogger Karina Vetrano left his home Sunday carrying a large club just moments after officials formally told him a suspect had been busted in the sex assault and strangling of his daughter.

He tossed the weapon into a red Kia Soul before driving off with a male passenger around 1 p.m.

About 10 minutes earlier, NYPD Chief of Detectives Robert Boyce and Queens District Richard Brown had left the Vetrano home after meeting with the victim’s family and supporters gathered there.

The visit followed a news conference at which the officials announced the arrest of Chanel Lewis, 20, who Brown said will be charged with murder and sex crimes in the deadly, August attack on Karina, 30, in nearby Spring Creek Park.

Lewis is being held at the 107th Precinct in Flushing, Queens, pending his transfer to court for arraignment.

It was unclear where Vetrano went with the club, but he never showed up at the precinct.

He was gone from his house for about 25 minutes before returning with the club.

I am angry over the news babe looking at the simian with love and admiration in her eyes. I am furious over the slobs who are eager to get a picture of the moron.

This non-human could not resist his low-order instincts, and so acted like the subhuman that he is.

That’s new york, so no death penalty. “Life in prison” isn’t. Some liberal governor will let him out early.

Indict, convict, sentence, carry out the sentence...

Take this sniveling dog out to the scene of the crime, clear out the area behind him, or put up a backdrop, and fill him full of lead.

Then leave his body there for the dogs and pigs to finish off, in the pin you have built.

Do this two or three times around the country.

Watch murder rates plummet.

Many years ago I was working in a steel mill. A big brutish worker caught an an older Italian worker alone in the locker room, and beat him up pretty bad. The police showed up, and questioned a few people. But nothing was done.

Then a few months later the big brute took a vacation to Florida. While on vacation he had an “accident”. End of story.

I would like to think she's actually sneering at the animal, while shouting out "how could you do it", or something of the sort.

I suggest that you get your daughter, at a minimum, police-grade pepper spray. The Fox brand is good, and can be purchased on Amazon. Avoid the weak garbage they sell at supermarket check-out lines.

I believe the spray legal in all 50 states, although some states set limits on how big the container can be. And YouTube has some great videos on how to carry and use it. I tell my relatives that it’s no good in your purse. When in a sketchy area, have it in your hand.

These subhuman "things" need to be fed into an industrial garbage disposal, feet first.

I grew up in Old Howard Beach, on the water side. I always felt safe there.

I am so sad that the last thing that beautiful young woman saw was the horribly ugly face. How terrifying.

My understanding is this sub-human thing is being kept in a protective area in prison due to his lack of intelligence.

I hope the guys get him good.

What is even better is RAID wasp spray. It shoots out ten feet. Hit the attacker all over his face. He won’t even see where you have gone!

One of our societies great problems is that don’t cull out these rogue people quickly enough.
