The police have arrested the boyfriend of slain Midwood woman Yevonnee Gefner, [whose decomposing body was found with a bizarre confession note](/murder-and-magic-in-midwood/) that read, “I killed my wife she’s putting spells on me.” The New York Daily News is [reporting](http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/brooklyn/brooklyn-killer-arrested-allegedly-killing-girlfriend-surviving-suicide-attempt-article-1.1363838?ref=bklyner.com) that the man, identified as 62-year-old Ronald Friedfertig, beat and stabbed his wife to death in their apartment located at 1315 Avenue N.

According to a CBS NY [report](http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2013/06/05/cops-suspect-charged-with-murder-after-womans-body-found-in-midwood-home/?ref=bklyner.com), despite the note that identified Gefner as Friedfertig’s wife, the couple was not married. After Friedfertig allegedly killed Gefner, he attempted to kill himself by jumping in front of a Q-train as it entered the Avenue M station. He suffered a broken neck and arm and was subsequently being treated at the Kings County Hospital.

The murder has shaken the otherwise quiet community.

“It’s a very Orthodox Jewish community, very tight-knit and everybody keeps an eye on one another,” neighbor Michael Wright said to CBS. “It’s kind of hard to have a murder right here.”

Friedfertig has been charged with murder and criminal possession of a weapon.
