The arrest warrants pertaining to the murder of real estate developer Andrew Kissel could be unsealed sometime Wednesday.
Kissel was found stabbed to death in his Greenwich mansion in April 2006. This past March, Greenwich police charged Kissel’s driver, 47-year-old Carlos Trujillo, with conspiracy to commit murder. His cousin, 21-year-old Leonard Trujillo, was also charged with murder and conspiracy to commit murder.
The warrants have been sealed ever since the arrests. Police have also been very tight-lipped about the case.
“There [are] legal concerns here,” says Lindy Urso, Carlos’ lawyer. “They are charged as conspirators, so there is a question of whether one of their statements may be admissible against the other.”
Carlos has pleaded guilty, while Leonard has yet to enter a plea.
