A Queens grand jury Wednesday handed up an indictment against the Brooklyn man arrested in the rape and murder of jogger Karina Vetrano in August on charges including murder.
The indictment charges Chanel Lewis, 20, with four counts of first-degree murder, five counts of second-degree murder, two counts of first-degree aggravated sexual abuse and two counts of first-degree sexual abuse in connection with the 30-year-old's death.
Lewis faces life behind bars without the possibility of parole if convicted. He will be arraigned on the indictment at a later date.
The raven-haired stunner Vetrano was last seen before her run on August 2, 2016, when she headed out onto a park trial near her Howard Beach home alone.
Cops say Lewis attacked her as she ran through the marshy area, and then sexually abused and strangled her.
Her remains were later discovered by her concerned father, who found Vetrano's beaten body 15 feet off the path, with her running shorts pulled down.
Lewis was nabbed in February after DNA evidence placed him at the scene.
While the young Brooklyn man's family maintain their son's innocence, Lewis purportedly told cops he killed Vetrano because he was "angry."
"I was angry. I had some issues at home. I just lost it. When I saw her, I just hit her and kept hitting her. I hit her and choked her," he allegedly admitted after his arrest.

Prayers up for her Mom and Dad.
Not a fan of the mafia but hopefully someone can reach out and “touch” him wherever he ends up.
It looks like the father is with NY Fire Department. Maybe he has connections with PD and maybe connections to inmates who may be of some “help”.
Deserves Death Penalty, but since it’s liberal NY they might give it, but like Cali never use it.
He looks like he's fifteen.
So sorry for her family. My daughter goes to college this year. I was political incorrect with her all the time. Im feeling I did not do enough to have her vigilant
Indict, convict, sentence, carry out the sentence...
Take this sniveling dog out to the scene of the crime, clear out the area behind him, or put up a backdrop, and fill him full of lead.
Then leave his body there for the dogs and pigs to finish off, in the pin you have built.
Do this two or three times around the country.
Watch murder rates plummet.
My heart goes out to the family...
These are the animals that the DEMOCRATS PROTECT. These people are their base, and they do ALL THEY CAN to install judges who will, at most, minimize their jail time, kill off the Death Penalty, and much more.
So, we can (indirectly) vote for Democrats, by sitting home on our asses to ‘send a message’, I guess, to Republicans that they need to run more conservative candidates.
...but in the meantime, animals like this guy are being let loose, thanks in large part to our side not having ‘perfect’ candidates, and therefore not voting.
