Cortez Indicted for Catherine Woods' Murder
After being arrested earlier this week in connection with an alleged sexual assault last New Year's eve, Paul Cortez was fingerprinted by the NYPD. These fingerprints were then found to match a bloody print found at the scene of Catherine Woods' November 27th murder. Cortez was subsequently arraigned on a charge of second degree murder on Friday, December 23rd.
According to a story on the web page of a Columbus, OH television station, Cortez pled not guilty before NY Supreme Court Justice Carol Berkman and was jailed without bail. Cortez's lawyer, Paul Klein, said he would reserve his bail application for the next court appearance, scheduled for Jan. 18.
