WHITE PLAINS – A 29-year-old Yonkers man was sentenced in Westchester
County Court to 25 years in state prison for stabbing his mother to death
in her Schroeder Street, Yonkers apartment on January 16, 2016.
Andre Coverdale pled guilty to a manslaughter charge in the death of Dawne
McCray.
At about 12:30 p.m. on the day of the murder, Coverdale walked up to a
security booth at the apartment complex and told the guard he had just
killed his mother.
When Yonkers Police arrived on the scene, they found Coverdale waiting
at the guard booth and his mother dead in her bed. She had been stabbed
several times.
