The family of a slain hero NYPD officer can rest easier — for now.

Cop-killer Eddie Matos, who is serving a 25-years-to-life sentence for the October 1989 murder of Anthony Dwyer, has been denied parole for a seventh time since 2014, officials said.

Dwyer, 23, was on the job just two-and-a-half years when Matos shoved him to his death from a Times Square roof.

A two-person parole panel was split last month on whether to set Matos free, but a three-person panel subsequently voted to keep Matos behind bars.

Dwyer’s family got the news they were longing to hear on May 3, according to the late officer’s sister, Maureen Brisette.

“Hearing the news that the animal who killed my brother was denied parole was a huge relief,” she told The Post. “We are always nervous waiting for the decision but this time was extra hard. … I’m grateful to the parole board for making the right decision.”

Anthony Dwyer, who was assigned to Midtown South, always wanted to be an NYPD officer, younger sister Maureen Brisette told The Post.
