The husband of a Brooklyn teacher found stabbed to death over the summer has been arrested in her murder, according to the NY Post.

Simeonette Mapes-Crupi, 29,  was found stabbed to death in the couple's Staten Island condo on July 5.

Jonathan Crupi says he found her on the floor of their apartment in the New Springville section of the borough.  She had been stabbed several times, police said.

Police arrested the 30-year-old on Tuesday on murder and weapons charges.

The Post reports that Crupi told detectives that he ran an errand and returned home to find his wife dead in a pool of blood.

Investigators didn't buy the story.
