A Harlem woman has been charged with murder over the weekend stabbing of her boyfriend — who identified her as his alleged attacker before dying, prosecutors said Tuesday.
Michelle Hernandez, 44, is accused of killing her 47-year-old beau Alejandro Santos, who stumbled out of their West 147th Street apartment Sunday afternoon banging on neighbors’ doors while bleeding out of wounds to his chest and arm.
“She stabbed me,” Santos reportedly told a neighbor who opened their door, before saying “I think I’m going to pass out” and collapsing, according to a complaint filed in Manhattan criminal court.
Hernandez then emerged from the apartment and told neighbors Santos had been stabbed and where the knife was — before allegedly kneeling down and whispering in the victim’s ear, an assistant district attorney said during Hernandez’s Tuesday arraignment.
“Don’t tell anyone who stabbed you or they’ll take me to jail,” she allegedly told him.
Santos was rushed to Harlem Hospital and pronounced dead.
