Ex-con Larry Atkinson, 64, was charged Monday in the 1994 cold-case strangulation deaths of a Harlem mom and her special needs daughter inside their apartment
An ex-con who did a pair of stints in state prison was charged Monday with murder in the vicious 1994 cold-case slaying of a Harlem mother and her special needs daughter.
Detectives used DNA evidence from the 28-year-old crime scene to link the murders to the suspected killer — including from cigarette butts and fingernail clippings, police sources said. Cops found no evidence of forced entry in the sixth-floor apartment after the home attendant made the grisly discovery and called 911, The Post reported at the time.
The career criminal has a total of 28 prior arrests and five separate state convictions, the NYPD said.
