Queens man convicted of killing, dismembering woman after getting life insurance in her name

A New York man was convicted Monday for killing and dismembering a woman after fraudulently taking out a life insurance policy in her name — then trying to collect the benefits, federal prosecutors said Monday.

The 36-year-old Queens resident was charged in the 2018 death of Brandy Odom, a 26-year-old whose body was found scattered in a park in Brooklyn.They say Martin and Anderson fraudulently obtained two life insurance policies in Odom’s name the year before Martin strangled Odom in her bedroom in April 2018.

The two then purchased cleaning supplies, covered their entire bathroom with heavy-duty black garbage bags and dismembered Odom’s body before disposing of it in Canarsie Park, Anderson testified.
