NYPD cop-killer Eddie Matos’ seventh bid for freedom denied – but he’ll get another chance in 2 months

Cop-killer Eddie Matos is keeping his current address — the maximum-security Green Haven Correctional Facility upstate.

Matos, who is serving a 25-years-to-life sentence for the October 1989 murder of Anthony Dwyer, has been denied parole for a seventh time, officials said this week.

“My family and I are very happy with the outcome. Disappointed that we have to do this all over again in less than two months,” Dwyer’s sister, Maureen Brisette, 45, told The Post.

“Hope the board continues to do what’s right and keeps this cop killer behind bars.”
