A New York man awaiting trial for the murder of a husband and wife committed suicide Monday morning, authorities said. John Miles, 35, was found dead around 5 a.m. at Albany County Correctional Facility. He had been checked a half-hour earlier. Miles was indicted in November for the Oct. 26 stabbing deaths of John and Mary Elacqua, who were killed in their Albany home after a burglary. A relative found 81-year-old John Elacqua's body in the living room. The body of Mary Elacqua, 73, was discovered the next day in the trunk of her abandoned car. Miles faced charges of first- and second-degree murder, burglary, grand larceny and petit larceny. If convicted, he would have received life in prison without parole. Miles was a convicted felon who was homeless. Police used DNA evidence recovered at the scene to link him to the killings. |
