An unkempt-looking King, 22, appeared in court Saturday to face a murder charge in Boomer’s Jan. 13 death.

King, cuffed behind his back and with his hair uncombed, was wearing black sweatpants, white socks and black slip-on shoes for the appearance before Judge Elizabeth Warin, during which he pleaded not guilty.

The suspect spoke to his lawyer but otherwise said nothing as he was arraigned in front of Judge Elizabeth Warin on charges of murder and criminal possession of a weapon in the killing of Julia Boomer.

Brooklyn Defense Services Lawyer Matt Coretto asked for medical and psychiatric attention for his client, who has been hospitalized since the heinous crime.

Prosecutor Taylor Lupi asked Jackson be sent to jail and the judge agreed, sending King to Rikers Island without bail.

Boomer was stabbed multiple times just before 10 p.m. on Jan. 13 in the home she shared with Jackson on Throop Ave. in Bedford-Stuyvesant. 

The victim’s daughter made the grim discovery, cops said. 

Boomer was rushed to Kings County Hospital in critical condition but couldn’t be saved.

The motive for the killing, which cops called a domestic dispute, wasn’t clear.
