A Yonkers man has pleaded guilty to fatally stabbing a 68-year-old woman inside her own apartment in 2022.

Authorities say 24-year-old Deshawn Nunez admitted to stabbing Renee Spencer 17 times in her residence on Nepperhan Avenue.

Surveillance video showed the two entering a senior housing complex two days before the body was discovered.

Nunez is expected to be sentenced to 25 years to life in prison in September.
