The body of the slain University of Connecticut professor may have been left inside his home for months, according to new reports.
Dr. Pierluigi Bigazzi, 84, was found dead inside his home in Burlington last week after police were called to the home.
Bigazzi’s wife, 70-year-old Linda Kosuda-Bigazzi, was later arrested and charged with murder and tampering with evidence.
Now Bigazzi’s ex-wife, Anna Bigazzi, believes that her former husband’s body was actually inside for months before being discovered.
Neighbors told the broadcaster that they don’t know anyone who saw Bigazzi alive after July 2017.
Bonnie O’Neill, who has lived across from the couple for at least 30 years, said that Kosuda-Bigazzi would ignore her neighbors completely.
The UConn Health Department issued a statement after the death was announced.
“We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of our longtime faculty member Dr. Pierluigi Bigazzi, professor in the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at UConn School of Medicine,” UConn Health said in a statement. “After being unable to reach Bigazzi, concerned departmental leadership contacted UConn Police who visited his home. UConn Police immediately contacted the local police department who is investigating the death in collaboration with the State Police.”
