"Preppie Killer" Robert Chambers Returns to Jail on Drug Charges

Robert Chambers, the man known as New York's "preppie killer", will return to jail on Monday after pleading guilty to drug charges.

Chambers, 41, pleaded guilty Monday to criminal sale of a controlled substance and assault on a police officer. He and his girlfriend Shawn Kovell were arrested in October 2007 in an undercover sting at their Manhattan apartment on charges of dealing cocaine.

Chambers will get six years on the assault charge, which will run concurrently, and will have five years of supervision after his release.

Chambers initially pleaded not guilty and was facing life in prison if convicted after trial. However, his attorney wants him to go under psychiatric evaluation, claiming that he was using up to 12 bags of heroin plus other drugs each day at the time of his arrest.

Kovell admitted in state Supreme Court in December that the two sold narcotics to an undercover detective. Due to her plea, she was sent to a drug rehabilitation center. Upon completion of the program, Kovell can enter a guilty plea, which will get her a sentence of probation.

Chambers served 15 years in jail after strangling Jennifer Levin, a then-18 year old graduate of the Baldwin School, to death during a tryst in Central Park. Chambers claimed that Levin was into rough sex.

Chambers pleaded guilty in 1988 to manslaughter and was released from prison in 2003 after serving the maximum 15 years because of discipline problems behind bars, including dealing drugs.

A year after his release from prison, police arrested him for misdemeanor heroin possession and unlicensed driving. He pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 100 days in jail and was fined $200.
