The nanny whose attorneys said she committed the grisly slayings of two children while they were in her care at their family’s home because the devil told her to do it was found guilty of murder on Wednesday.
Following a nearly seven-week trial, a Manhattan jury found Yoselyn Ortega, 55, guilty of two counts of first-degree murder and two counts of second-degree murder in the stabbing deaths of 6-year-old Lucia Krim and her 2-year-old brother, Leo Krim in their family’s home on the Upper West Side.
