NEW YORK, May 9 — A New York man who murdered a homeless person and wounded two others as they slept outdoors on park benches in a stabbing spree over several nights in July 2022 was sentenced to between 25 years and life in prison yesterday, prosecutors said.

Trevon Murphy, a 42-year-old man who was himself homeless, had pleaded guilty in January to one count of murder in the second degree and two counts of attempted murder for the attacks.
