The Suffolk District Attorney announced Monday that the boyfriend of a woman who was beaten to death has now admitted to carrying out the attack.
The DA says Oscar Morocho-Morocho pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the death of his girlfriend Ruth Para-Martinez.
Authorities say he kicked and dragged the 34-year-old on the side of the road in May.
Para-Martinez's body was found the next day.
Detectives used surveillance video from a nearby business to track down Morocho-Morocho.
