Man convicted in decades-old Bronx murder

Bronx jurors convicted a man Wednesday for a two-decade-old murder that was only recently solved by DNA, authorities said.

Angel Guridy-Cabral, 51, was nailed on a second-degree murder charge for the March 16, 1993, stabbing of former gal pal Altagracia Valdez, 24, said Bronx DA Robert Johnson.

Jurors deliberated for two days following the three-week trial. The killer, facing 25 years to life, is scheduled to be sentenced on March 5. David K. Li

Valdez was fatally knifed inside her Gerard Avenue apartment. In 1993, there was no DNA database to check against forensic evidence recovered at the scene, according to Johnson.

Dets. Mark Tebbens and Anthony Padilla of the NYPD Cold Case Apprehension Squad re-opened the case years later and got the fortunate DNA hit, Johnson said.

Detectives traced Guridy-Cabral to the Dominican Republic. He was indicted in 2010 and finally returned to the Bronx in May 2012 after a long extradition fight.
