An 88-year-old New York man who identifies as a woman and has now been convicted of killing three women over six decades was sentenced this week to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Harvey Marcelin, who has also gone by Marceline Harvey, was handed the maximum sentence on Wednesday for the 2022 murder and dismemberment of 68-year-old Susan Leyden.

Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Danny Chun sentenced Marcelin after concluding he would “kill again” if ever released.

The sentencing was for Marcelin’s May conviction on charges of first-degree murder, tampering with physical evidence, and concealment of a human corpse.

A Brooklyn jury deliberated for less than one hour before finding him guilty.

Prosecutors said Marcelin killed Leyden in his East New York apartment on February 27, 2022.

The gender-bending lunatic used a reciprocating saw to dismember her body.

Leyden’s headless torso was later found in a plastic bag inside a shopping cart.

Additional body parts, including her head, were recovered from his apartment along with bloody sheets, a hammer, and a saw.

Surveillance video captured Marcelin purchasing the saw and cleaning supplies at a Home Depot.

Marcelin was also recorded at a 99 Cent store riding his electric wheelchair while sitting on one of Leyden’s severed legs as he disposed of evidence.

Marcelin and Leyden had previously lived in the same Bronx homeless shelter.

This was Marcelin’s third conviction for murdering a woman.

In 1963, he was convicted of first-degree murder for shooting his girlfriend, Jacqueline Bonds, in Manhattan. He was paroled in 1984.

Over two decades later, in 1985, Marcelin stabbed another girlfriend, Ana-Laura Sierra, to death. Her body was found in a garbage bag.

Marcelin pleaded guilty to manslaughter and was paroled again in 2019 after promising to stay out of trouble.

Despite serving more than 50 years in prison across two prior terms, Marcelin killed Leyden while still under parole supervision.

At sentencing, Justice Danny Chun stated he had “no hope for rehabilitation” and feared Marcelin would kill again if freed.

“The cold fact is that every time you were released, you killed someone else, which leads this court to believe that, regardless of your age, if you are ever paroled again, I have no doubt that you would kill again,” Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Danny Chun said, according to a report from the New York Daily News.

Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez, in a statement following the conviction, said, “This conviction holds the defendant accountable for the cruel and reprehensible murder of Susan Leyden. Following the senseless murder, the defendant desecrated the victim’s remains in a manner that truly shocks the conscience. I hope Ms. Leyden’s family finds a measure of solace in this guilty verdict, which ensures this defendant will never walk free again.”
