A Brooklyn carpenter convicted of murdering his roommate and chopping the body into thousands of pieces was hit with the maximum sentence of 25 years to life behind bars yesterday.
Sergey Mamonov, a 51-year-old Russian immigrant, admitted at trial that he packed Aleksandr Zilbergleyt’s butchered body into 12 bleach bottles, threw his fingers into Sheepshead Bay, and pulverized his brain in a meat grinder.
Prosecutors called for Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Neil Firetog to hit Mamonov with the maximum possible punishment for the March 2012 murder.
“He certainly showed no remorse for what he did with a human being,” said Assistant District Attorney Melissa Carvajal, noting the victim’s family didn’t attend the trial because they didn’t want to be subjected to the “horrendous, horrific and gruesome details.”
Defense attorney Kleon Andreadis tried to get his client a lighter sentence, noting the heinous crime was his client’s first arrest.
Mamonov, born in what is now Uzbekistan, declined to make a statement before his sentencing.
At his trial, Mamonov said he used knives, wire cutters and other hand tools to hack apart the body of Zilbergleyt, 55. He avoided power tools because he didn’t want to arouse the neighbors’ suspicion.
“Everything must disappear,” Mamonov said.
The jury took about 15 minutes to convict him this month. Afterward, one horrified juror said, “I’m going to see a shrink right now.”
Mamonov said he feuded with Zilbergleyt at their Sheepshead Bay home because the older man drank a lot and was messy.
