Wilson Felipe Andrade-Molina, age 38, of Brentwood, was found guilty of murder and related charges in Suffolk County Court on Thursday, May 23, in the death of Miguel Andrade-Cando.

Prosecutors said surveillance video captured Andrade-Molina arriving at Electronic Machine Parts in Hauppauge, where the two worked, at around 7:20 a.m. on March 30, 2023.

Minutes later, he fatally stabbed Andrade-Cando in the neck. The owner of the business found the victim lying on the floor in a pool of blood.

Andrade-Molina then drove to his cousin’s home in Brentwood, where the victim lived with his girlfriend and her 21-year-old son. Once inside, he proceeded to stab the woman repeatedly, nearly killing her.

The victim’s son awoke to her screams and tried to intervene, but the man threatened to stab him, according to prosecutors. Andrade-Molina then fled to Bay Shore, where police arrested him a short time later.

Investigators said the female victim suffered life-threatening injuries, including a lacerated liver, punctures to her diaphragm and lungs, and cuts to her arm, shoulder, and breast.

Following a three-week trial, jurors found Andrade-Molina guilty of second-degree murder and attempted murder.

“While this guilty verdict will never reverse the extreme violence and tragic outcome that resulted from this defendant’s deadly actions, we hope that it brings a small measure of peace to the victims and their families,” said Suffolk County District Attorney Raymond Tierney.

“I want to thank the Suffolk County Police Department for their investigation in this case, the jury for their careful attention during the trial, and my prosecutors for obtaining justice for the victims. Thanks to them, this defendant will be called to account for his crimes.”

Andrade-Molina faces up to 50 years to life in prison when he’s sentenced on Monday, June 24.
