20 yrs. eyed in slay plea
A MAN WHO admitted he killed his mistress while free on bail for shooting the host of a house party is expected to be slapped with a 20-year sentence for the bloody rampages.
Daniel Romain (photo), 35, on Monday pleaded guilty to first-degree manslaughter for repeatedly stabbing 46-year-old lover Tisa Kelly in the neck on Nov. 24, 2015, inside the E. 96th St. home where Romain and his wife lived.
Kelly’s body was found “hog-tied” in the bathtub, sources said.
The grisly attack came seven months after Romain was arrested for opening fire on Jamel Bloomfield, who refused to let Romain into his house party in East New York.
On Monday, Romain also pleaded guilty to the attempted murder of Bloomfield.
Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Danny Chun is set to sentence Romain to 20 years behind bars March 28.
He faced up to 50 years to life if he had gone to trial in the separate cases. FRENCH couturier Hubert de Givenchy, who created iconic looks for Audrey Hepburn, died on Saturday at 91.
An aristocrat and a towering talent who stood 6 feet 5 inches tall, Givenchy founded his fashion house in 1952 at age 24 to immediate success. His international influence lasted for three decades.
Givenchy is best known for designing personal and film wardrobes for Hepburn, an enduring moviestar muse and close friend for 40 years. That includes the little black dress she wore in 1961’s “Breakfast at Tiffany’s.”
“His are the only clothes in which I am myself,” Hepburn said of the designer.
Grace Kelly and Jackie Kennedy were other famous clients of Givenchy, a name synonymous with understated elegance.
Givenchy sold his namesake label to LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton in 1988 for $45 million. BERLIN — German prosecutors say a former guard dubbed the “accountant of Auschwitz” has died.
Oskar Groening, 96, who died Friday, was convicted in Lueneburg in 2015 as an accessory to the murder of 300,000 Jews. He was due to begin a four-year prison term soon.
Groening testified at his trial that he oversaw the collection of prisoners’ belongings and ensured valuables and cash were separated to be sent to Berlin.
