The 22-year-old trans daughter of a Brooklyn man who was fatally stabbed early Thursday has been charged with his murder after police initially suspected the deadly confrontation was connected to a home invasion.
Nikki Secondino was charged with the fatal stabbing of her dad, Carlo Secondino, who was pronounced dead at their Bensonhurst home around 6 a.m. Thursday, according to police.
She was also charged with attempted murder and criminal possession of a weapon in connection to the horrific attack.
The alleged killer’s 19-year-old sister was also stabbed during the incident and rushed to Maimonides Hospital in critical condition.
Sources told The Post earlier Thursday that Nikki was suspected of concocting the fake story about the break-in to cover up her own brutal crime.
A neighbor of the Secondinos also said she heard Nikki making a phone call in the hallway after the slaying, claiming the family had been robbed by home invaders who also stabbed them.

Police at first said two robbers broke into the family’s home on 17th Avenue near 82nd Street and demanded money from a safe before killing the 61-year-old father and injuring both daughters.
Nikki suffered slash wounds to the hands and was taken to the hospital in stable condition, police said.
Nikki is transgender — something her dad supported, said the father’s employer Yadira Gomez, who co-owns Mike’s Diner where Secondino worked as a deliveryman.
