Redding murder case delayed until September - Danbury News Times

DANBURY — The next court date of the retired physician assistant from Redding accused of killing his wife earlier this year has been postponed to Sept. 30.

Richard Commaille, 70, was charged with murder following a police investigation into the death of his 64-year-old wife, Nanci, who died from a gunshot wound at the couple’s Top Ledge Road home on April 6.

According to authorities, Commaille called 911 around 10:10 p.m. April 6, reporting that his wife died by suicide.

Redding Police Chief Mark O’Donnell said the case began as an “untimely death investigation,” but was turned over to the Connecticut State Police Western District Major Crimes Squad for further investigation because “some things didn’t make sense.”

Investigators noted inconsistencies between what Commaille told authorities and evidence found at the crime scene, according to authorities.

A mixture of the victim’s blood and “male donor” DNA were found on the pistol, and there were gunshot residue particles on Commaille’s hands, according to the warrant for Commaille’s arrest.

Nanci’s death was ruled a homicide and her husband was arrested June 9.

At his arraignment, Commaille’s attorney, Edward Gavin, said his client maintains his innocence and turned over all of his weapons and ammunition when requested by state police.

Commaille’s case is being handled at state Superior Court in Danbury.
