NYC woman who stabbed father to death claimed he was an abusive cult member: police

The woman who allegedly stabbed her dad to death inside his Queens home earlier this month was set to be extradited to New York City Wednesday to face murder charges — as she told police that her old man was in a cult and had abused her.

Anna Cavak, 30, allegedly fled the home on 109th Avenue in Ozone Park after she stabbed her father, Peter Cavak, to death during some sort of confrontation, according to NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny.

“He’s trying to kill me!” Cavak screamed to her mom, Maria Clement, about her dad on the morning of June 5, Kenny said.

Clemente rushed downstairs and busted into the bedroom, where she saw her 70-year-old husband on the floor — and her daughter on top of him, holding a rectangular object cops later found out was a stun gun, the chief added.

When detectives arrived, Maria told them she saw Anna on top of Peter, who was covered in blood, Kenny said.

Anna fled after the killing, but cops tracked her car across the river, he added. She was later picked up by the New Jersey State Police and arrested.

Anna later claimed to authorities her dad was in a cult and abusive, Kenny said. And she also claimed his behavior also led to the death of her sister, who she said committed suicide by overdose, he added.

“It was a fairly recent report reporting some instances of abuse when she was a child,” Lt. John Russo of the NYPD’s Detective Bureau said. “I don’t want to get too much into it.”

Cavak had no criminal history — nor did her father, Kenny said.

Peter was named in one domestic incident tied to his daughter, in which she accused him of a criminal sex act, Kenny said.

He was also named in an earlier complaint of child abuse and sex abuse in which his daughter was the alleged victim, the chief said.

James Clement, Peter’s 38-year-old stepson and Anna’s half-brother, told The Post in a recent interview outside the family home that his stepdad — a retired bus driver for the MTA — worked hard to provide for his family, but suffered from a history of trauma and physical and emotional abuse himself.

And even though Anna had a litany of mental health issues, he was inclined to believe her accusations about ongoing sexual abuse.

“All this stuff didn’t happen by coincidence, it didn’t just happen because [Anna] woke up one day and did what she did,” he told The Post. “I think it was an accumulation of neglect from when she was a child, up until she was 30. … [but] what she did was uncalled-for.”

“It’s hard for me to say what her plan was, because it was an extreme act, and it wasn’t planned out,” Clement continued. “I think she had a psychotic break.”
