Authorities revealed the names of the deceased as Kethlen Paula Alves Trindade DaRocha, 28, and Marlon Moreira Costa, 29, both Marlborough residents.
On Rice Street, Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan and Marlborough Chief of Police David Giorgi said police raced to the scene after a call at about 10:05 a.m., where two women and a child burst from the home reporting the gunfire. These preliminary details shared by the District Attorney's Office were accompanied by echoes of disbelief among locals, according to Hoodline.
Officers arrived at the grim scene where DaRocha and Costa were discovered lifeless, each felled by a single bullet that had stolen their last breaths, all indicators pointing to an intimate connection gone tragically awry, as stated in the full release on the Middlesex District Attorney’s official website.
The episode's genesis, as pieced together by investigators, began with Costa breaking into DaRocha's residence through a window after allegedly delivering threats the night before, with Costa turning the weapon on himself post-shooting her.
This is an open and ongoing investigation being conducted by the Middlesex District Attorney’s Office, Massachusetts State Police Detectives assigned to the District Attorney’s Office and Marlborough Police.
