Gelman faces life in prison, but a sentencing date hasn't yet been set. Friedman has asked for another psychiatric evaluation to show Gelman needs treatment. The Brooklyn district attorney's office said it would seek life in prison. A sentencing hearing has been scheduled for Jan. 11.

"It's quite likely, almost guaranteed, that any sentence I give means you'd never be released from a penal institution while you are alive," Judge Vincent DelGiudice said.

Gelman said he understood. "Have a good one," he said to his lawyer after he was led away.

At the sentencing, Bulchenko's boyfriend began to tell the judge of his loss when Gelman interrupted and shouted obscenities at the man. The judge then temporarily ordered Gelman out of the courtroom.

"There's something going on upstairs with Mr. Gelman that kind of prevents him from controlling himself," said Gelman's lawyer, Edward Friedman.
