Brooklyn Paper
A Brighton Beach man has been sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole for the fatal stabbing of his former roommate in a 2020 attack that prosecutors described as a premeditated ambush.
According to prosecutors, Orgaev violated an active order of protection when he entered the victim’s Brighton Beach apartment in the early morning hours of May 11, 2020, and fatally stabbed him.
Prosecutors said Orgaev and the victim, 45-year-old Dmitri Buvenov, had been living together in a basement apartment in Brighton Beach in May 2020.
Despite that order, prosecutors said Orgaev walked from a nearby residence to the apartment they had previously shared at approximately 3:30 a.m. on May 11, 2020.
The case was prosecuted by Senior Assistant District Attorney Steven Bravo of the Homicide Bureau and Assistant District Attorney Chow Xiw, deputy bureau chief, under the supervision of Homicide Bureau Chief Leila Rosini.
