A former New York City police officer killed in April was stabbed in the back 19 times by his ex-wife, a Mecklenburg prosecutor said in court Thursday.
Carole LaRossa, 48, of Waxhaw, is charged with first-degree murder in the killing of her estranged husband, James LaRossa, at his Rea Road apartment in south Charlotte. She’s out of jail on $250,000 bond, but was asking a judge to relax some of the conditions of her release. Particularly, her attorneys argued she wanted to stop wearing a monitoring bracelet on her ankle around the clock because she needed medical treatment.
But Assistant District Attorney Robert Corbett said the gruesomeness of the April 10 stabbing was one reason bond conditions shouldn’t be relaxed. An autopsy described six of the back wounds as the most serious, penetrating more than two inches. One sliced a heart valve, which incapacitated James LaRossa and ultimately led to his death.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
