‘The system failed her’: NYPD came to slain woman’s home hour before she was killed

The NYPD showed up to a Harlem nursing student’s apartment less than an hour before she was allegedly stabbed to death by her abusive ex-boyfriend because he was trying to break in — but instead of making an effort to find him or protect her in any way, they simply took a report and left, according to police, sources and her family.

Officers from Manhattan’s 25th Precinct — where Alayna Hardy, 27, had filed six previous domestic violence reports against Fernando Munera — were soon called back to the apartment Wednesday night, but it was too late. Munera had broken in through the fire escape after police left and stabbed her multiple times until she died.
