An affluent Suffolk County woman was charged in the stabbing death of her husband Friday during a domestic dispute, according to Suffolk County police. Kathleen Prisco, 48, of Bob O Link Lane in Fort Salonga, was charged with second degree murder after homicide detectives say she stabbed her husband Ralph, 54, in their home yesterday morning.
The eldest son of the couple, 22, heard a struggle and then his father screaming for help. The Prisco’s son was the only other person home at the time of the incident. Upon their arrival, police found Mr. Prisco on the floor of his foyer, bleeding from multiple stab wounds. He was rushed to Stony Brook University Medical Center, but pronounced dead upon arrival at 9:31 a.m.
Police also found Mrs. Prisco in her bedroom, where she told them she had taken over-the-counter medication. She was subsequently treated at Huntington Hospital and released into custody. Mrs. Prisco’s arraignment is scheduled for today at First District Court in Central Islip.
Detectives said motivation for the alleged murder is unclear at this time.
