Susan Corcoran

December 19, 2001.

Anthony Calarbo had made a call to the Quincy police that he had come home and found his great aunt at the foot of the stairs dead.

My name is Susan Corcoran, and I am the prosecutor in this case.

When the investigators responded to Marina Calavero's house that night, they found her with her face down in a fetal position with blood coming from a head wound.

It looked from all appearances that she may have fallen.

And for months after that, everyone believed that Marina Calavero had died as a result of an accidental fall down her stairs.

The Informer.

They knew that he was going to inherit this house from her, and they did not want to wait for her to die.

No, I did not.

I knew that I had to overcome a lot of issues when I first received the case.

The state police had declared it an accident.

The Quincy police had declared it an accident.

And the medical examiner had declared it an accident.

They said that the night before they had an argument because Anthony had been drinking or something to that effect.

And Tom tried to grab the bottle from him and Anthony scratched Tom's face.

They tried to do testing for blood.

It was too long, it was too late for them to do any type of testing.

They were very good at covering their tracks.

They tried to conceal the crime.

When she was found at the foot of the stairs, they covered everything up.
