Overview
- Police found 71-year-old Marian Green stabbed to death in her Scarsdale home and have charged her 26-year-old son, Chester Green, with second-degree murder.
- Authorities say the attack involved multiple stab wounds and blunt-force injuries and that officers located the son at the scene before taking him into custody.
- The accused was taken to a hospital for observation, arraigned at his bedside, and is slated to be remanded to the Westchester County Jail pending further court proceedings.
- Westchester County District Attorney Susan Cacace issued a statement saying her office is shocked by the killing and will pursue justice, while investigators continue to seek a motive and develop evidence.
- Marian Green was a longtime local disability advocate who chaired the village Advisory Council on People with Disabilities, and the killing has unnerved Scarsdale where homicides are exceptionally rare.
