Final chapter in Yorkville murder

The final chapter was written last week in the case of one of the worst crimes in recent Yorkville memory. Paul Cortez, 26, was convicted of killing Catherine Woods in her Yorkville apartment.
Prosecutors said that on Nov. 27, 2005, Mr. Cortez slipped into Ms. Woods’s
building on East 86th Street in Manhattan between 6 and 7 p.m., after her
hometown boyfriend and roommate, David Haughn, had gone out to get his car.
