Unsolved murder of mom causes concern, speculation

ELLINGTON, Conn. (AP) The killing of a mother of two remains unsolved six weeks after she was shot to death in her Ellington home, leaving relatives frustrated and some town residents worried.

Authorities responded to a burglary alarm December 23rd and found 39-year-old Connie Dabate fatally shot and her husband, Richard Dabate, wounded in their home. Their two sons were in school at the time.

Richard Dabate was treated at a hospital and released.

State police only will say the case is still under investigation. Troopers previously said there was never any threat to the public, but they didn't elaborate.

A relative of Connie Dabate says the family is frustrated that there hasn't been an arrest yet.

Some town residents say they're worried, and the lack of an arrest is fueling speculation.
