(AP Photo/Newsday, Charles Eckert) “Preppy killer” Robert Chambers pleaded guilty today to dealing cocaine from his Manhattan apartment, the New York Daily News reports. He also confessed to assaulting a police officer during his October arrest and faces nearly 20 years in state prison. Chambers gained national infamy in the 1980s after his “rough sex murder” of former girlfriend Jennifer Levin. "What goes around comes around," a police commented on the case. "Maybe this will give Levin's family some peace—it killed them to think he was just bouncing around, dealing and hurting other people's kids."
