The Erie County District Attorney’s Office announced that 56-year-old Brian Scott Lorenzo, who was previously found guilty of murder in the death of Deborah Meindl in 1993, was sentenced to 37 ½ years to life in prison.
Investigators said that on February 17, 1993, Lorenzo entered a home on Franklin Street in the City of Tonawanda, and while inside, intentionally caused the death of 33-year-old Deborah Meindl. She was found dead in the dining room by her 10-year-old daughter as she arrived home from school. The DA said the Erie County Medical Examiner’s Office ruled the manner of death as homicide caused by ligature strangulation.
This marks the closing of a case that has been up in the air for years…
