TRENTON, N.J. (AP) - The married lover of a missing New Jersey woman has been ordered held on bail. Officials claim he struck her on the head, stuffed her chopped-up body in a suitcase and dumped it in a pond.
Prosecutors say that investigators believe Rosario DiGirolamo killed the woman with a blunt object in her apartment last June and then sawed her body into pieces.
DiGirolamo has been ordered to remain in jail in lieu of one million dollars bond.
He was arrested after skeletal remains were found last weekend in a remote pond in Staten Island, New York, with the help of an alleged accomplice who has been speaking with investigators.
According to prosecutors, the accomplice helped DiGirolamo buy drain cleaner, reinforced garbage bags and a saw blade to use in the killing.
