Breaking News (Thursday, 3:24 p.m.): A Greenwich man found guilty in the brutal murder of his former daughter-in-law has received the maximum sentence of 40 years in prison.
A judge ruled Tuesday afternoon that Gerardo Lombardi, 77, will serve the time for the shooting and stabbing death of Alison McKnight on Sept. 4, 2008.
During the trial, prosecutors argued that Mr. Lombardi killed Ms. McKnight over her plans for property at 36 Nicholas Ave., which is next door to where he lived at 38 Nicholas Ave.
Ms. McKnight won the property in a 2008 divorce settlement from Mr. Lombardi’s son Joseph, to whom she had been married for 30 years.
Full coverage will follow in this week's issue of the Greenwich Post.
