J’ouvert slay suspect gets 5 yrs. in gun rap

- Andrew Keshner

ONE OF the men charged with the fatal 2015 shooting of a high-ranking aide to Gov. Cuomo was sentenced Monday to five years in prison on an unrelated gun charge.

Stanley Elianor got the maximum sentence in Brooklyn Federal Court for bringing a loaded handgun into a hospital where he was being treated three years ago.

Elianor was out on bail on that weapons charge when he was arrested in connection to Carey Gabay’s death from a stray bullet during gang crossfire at J’ouvert celebratio­ns in 2015.

The 27-year-old, affiliated with the Crips and Folk Nation, is one of five men charged with the murder of the 43-year-old Gabay (photo).

Elianor’s federal case started when he was treated at Kings County Hospital in October 2014 for a car accident. Prosecutor­s said Elianor was carrying a backpack with a derringer inside.

Judge Ann Donnelly said bringing a loaded gun to an emergency room was “about as brazen as you can get.”
