NEW YORK (AP) - A former fashion writer was convicted Wednesday of sexually abusing a woman for almost 13 hours after posing as a firefighter on Halloween to bluff his way into her Manhattan apartment.
A jury needed less than four hours to convict Peter Braunstein in a case that provided a daily window into the bizarre world of a man whose life seemed to grow ever more unstable after he lost his girlfriend and his job in the magazine business.
Braunstein, 43, was convicted of kidnapping, burglary, sex abuse and robbery charges. He was acquitted of arson.
