Providence, RI: RI grand jury indicts man in wife's killing

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — A grand jury has indicted a Providence man on first-degree murder and theft charges accusing him of beating his wife to death and using her debit card afterward.

The Providence County grand jury indicted 45-year-old Constantino Nardolillo on Monday in connection with the killing of his wife, Anne Marie, in January 2010. He has been detained since his arrest a few days after the woman's bloody body was found in their West End apartment.

Police say they caught Nardolillo after tracking the use of his wife's debit card around the Providence area. Authorities say he also stole a car in Warwick and used a credit card found in the vehicle.

Nardolillo is to be arraigned in Providence Superior Court on Sept. 14.
