Neighbors have spotted the husband to slain New Jersey woman Brooke Hanlon, 35, in Chester months after she was found stabbed to death in the family’s home.
Conor Hanlon, 36, has been making weekly stops at his Chester, New Jersey home — usually staying for Thursday into Friday stints, neighbors say. Many have seen his white Volvo SUV parked in his driveway.
His wife, Brooke, was found dead inside the home on June 6, with the Morris County Prosecutor’s Office investigating it as a homicide case. So far, no suspect or person of interest has been named.
