Ohio man makes brief court appearance in case of murder of Bethel woman

An Ohio man was back in court yesterday on charges stemming from the death of a Bethel woman.  The judge told 27-year-old Brandon Roberts he will have to decide at his next appearance whether to plead guilty or go to trial, with only one plea deal offered.  Details were not disclosed.  The case was continued to January 8th.  Roberts was charged with murder, felony murder, robbery and carrying a pistol without a permit for the December 8th killing of 25-year-old Emily Todd in Bridgeport.  The Danbury senior center therapist was found the next morning.  Her family later told police she met Roberts, who was staying with relatives at a Stratford hotel, on an online dating app.
