Chanel Lewis was arrested for the murder of the runner Karina Vetrano, Queens, New York.

Lewis lived with his mother in East New York, Brooklyn, which borders on Howard Beach, where Karina Vetrano was murdered.



New York police lieutenant John Russo first saw Lewis at the Brooklyn-Queens border three months before Vetrano's death, police sources told ABC News at the time of the arrest.



Russo thought he looked suspicious and called him, but Lewis left before a patrol car could respond, police sources said. The next day, a person who called 911 mentioned Lewis by name and said he looked like he was entering a Howard Beach property with a crowbar, police sources said.

I never wanted to hurt her, it just happened.

While working on the Vetrano case, Russo suggested taking a look at Lewis. Police located it and said it gave a voluntary DNA sample, which matches the recovered DNA from where Vetrano was found, police said.



Lewis had no prior arrests so his DNA was not in CODIS, Boyce said.



Lewis, who did not seem to know Karina Vetrano, allegedly told detectives he "just lost it" and strangled Vetrano after seeing her on the jogging path, according to a statement that prosecutors read aloud during his appearance.



Vetrano "did nothing," Lewis allegedly told the police. "I was angry at that moment, I hit her to let my emotions out, I never really wanted to hurt her, it just happened."

Lewis, now 22, is awaiting trial at the Rikers Island jail in New York City.



"Mr. Lewis is very optimistic," Reverend Kevin McCall of the National Action Network, a spokesman for the Lewis family, told ABC News. "He pleaded not guilty because he believes and knows that he did not commit this crime."



The Legal Aid Society, representing Lewis, said in a statement: "We have serious doubts about the collection of evidence and tactics employed by the New York Police Department that led to the arrest of our client, and we trust that the jury will examine Critically evidence and find that the government is not going to prove your case. "



Chris Banks, the spokesman for Lewis' family, told ABC News that they believe Lewis's confession was coerced.



Lewis' mother, Vita, said her son was religious and nonviolent.



"I love my son," he told reporters last year. "My son is friendly, God fearing and will not hurt anyone."



McCall added that Lewis was quiet and a "bright young man". He vowed to "fight to the end" for him.



Meanwhile, Phil Vetrano, who told ABC News last year. who will attend the court every day, said his family "will never let him pass".



"We are there to defend my daughter, who can not fend for herself," he said.



When she was alive, Phil Vetrano said that her daughter lived her life to the fullest.



"She always had fun," he said. "It should be an example for others to live their lives, live each day as if it were their last day," he said. "Because you do not know what will bring you in 10 minutes, and that's how Karina lived her life."
