DA seeks maximum in NY serial killer's sentencing (AP)

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. ? New York prosecutors are asking a judge to send a serial killer to prison for the rest of his life.

Sentencing is scheduled Tuesday for 43-year-old Francisco Acevedo. He was found guilty in November of killing three women in Yonkers between 1989 and 1996.

The district attorney is asking for the maximum sentence, 75 years to life.

Acevedo was not suspected in the murders until 2009, when he was in jail on a drunken driving charge and submitted an application for parole. One condition of the application was a DNA sample.

When his DNA hit the state database, investigators saw that it matched DNA found on all three women.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo (KWOH'-moh) has proposed expanding the state's DNA database to include profiles from more criminals, including drunken drivers.
