An Inwood man’s request for a reduced sentence after serving almost 20 years for killing his mother’s boyfriend was denied by a Nassau County judge, who found he still posed a danger to the community.

Tremaine Alexander, 45, who shot his mother’s boyfriend in the back on Jan. 3, 2003, applied earlier this year for resentencing under the Domestic Abuse Survivors Justice Act , which recognizes the role that violence in the home plays in crime.
