BREAKING: Nathan Carman, awaiting trial in the killing of his mom during a 2016 fishing trip off the coast of New England, has died, court documents reveal. The 29-year-old was also suspected of killing his grandfather.

the Vermont man charged with killing his mother at sea off the coast of New England in 2016A case dismissal was filed in U.S. District Court in Vermont on Thursday, saying that the U.S. Marshal informed the state that Carman died on or about Thursday.

Carman pleaded not guilty last year to fraud and first-degree murder in the death of his mother, Linda Carman of Middletown, Connecticut. The eight-count indictment also says Carman shot and killed his wealthy grandfather John Chakalos at his home in Windsor, Connecticut, in 2013 but does not charge him with murder in his death.
