BELLEROSE, Queens (PIX11) --- The convicted felon accused of brutally torturing and killing an elderly Queens couple earlier this week has confessed to the crimes, prosecutors said Friday.

"I killed them, I don't give a f---. I burnt the n-----. I molested them," Jamel McGriff told investigators after his arrest, according to the criminal complaint.

McGriff, 42, was arraigned Thursday night on multiple counts of murder, robbery, and arson in connection with the brutal deaths of Frank Olton, 76, and his 77-year-old wife, Maureen.

"This is a horrific double murder that has shocked our entire city. Frank and Maureen Olton were simply spending a Monday morning at home and their deaths have shattered the sense of safety and security in New York," Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz said.
