The suspects accused of conspiring to commit murder in the Jan. 24 slaying of Mario Schiano, 47, and Anthony Galeotti, 44, have been denied bond and will stay in custody until their trial.
Kelly Schiano, Mario Schiano’s wife, and Everett Harper both appeared in court on Friday, Feb. 9 for pretrial bond hearings. The state argued bond should not be set for either suspect, and the pair should be kept in pretrial detention.
State Assistant Attorney Hamid Hunter argued that details in a sealed affidavit outline Schiano’s role in the killings, and her text messages prove she knew harm was coming to her husband and didn’t stop it.
“The supplemental affidavit that you have establishes that Ms. Schiano knew that something was going to happen to her husband on the day of the crime, on Jan 24,” said Hunter. “She was actually texting with her husband about how much she loved him on the 24th, she was texting with her daughter business as usual, while knowing what was going to happen to Mr. Schiano.”
