‘Coma Hubby’ killer goes to prison for 10 years
Before a jealous man was sentenced to 10 years in prison on Wednesday for causing the death of his neighbor, his defense attorney slammed the Brooklyn prosecutor’s office for denying his client’s guilty plea, dragging the trial out.
“I don’t want to be disrespectful,” said Steven Chaikin, the defense attorney for Valeriy Milonovich. “I speak for myself, not my client … This trial was a waste of time. This trial did not have to happen.”
Prior to starting a jury trial in Brooklyn Supreme Court in November, Milonovich was offered a 15-year plea bargain for stabbing 48-year-old Maxim Doukhan to death on July 30, 2017.
