Grand jury indicts NYC man after party death

NEW YORK (AP) A 25-year-old New York City resident has been indicted following the death of a Connecticut man who went missing after a party at a luxury Manhattan apartment.

The panel voted Monday to indict James Rackover, who owned the East Side apartment where authorities say 26-year-old Joseph Comunale was stabbed 15 times.

Prosecutors won't reveal the indictment charges until Rackover is arraigned in December.

He and co-defendant Lawrence Dilione were charged last week with concealment of a human body, hindering prosecution and tampering with evidence.

Investigators have been working to determine who killed the Stamford, Connecticut man before his body was found in New Jersey.

Both defendants deny wrongdoing.
