A brief history of murder in Westport
Steve Kobak
Published 7:00 pm, Friday, December 9, 2011
Murders in Westport are indeed a rare occurrence.
Prior to Thursday's robbery-homicide, the last murder in
Westport occurred in May 1996 when Stuart Hunter gunned down his
estranged wife Harriet S. Hunter at the Temple Israel
Religious School, where Harriet worked as a secretary. Stuart
Hunter shot his wife twice in the head with a .357 Magnum before
turning the gun on himself. The couple had been going through a
messy divorce in which Stuart was accused of physically abusing
his wife, and Harriet Hunter had taken out a restraining order
against Stuart Hunter.
The mid-to-late-1980s were somewhat of an anomaly for the town,
as a total of six murders were reported in Westport.
The peak came in 1985 when three murders were recorded. The year
began with the robbery-murder of Louis P. Verda , who was shot
to death and robbed by a man who rented a room at his home and
an associate of the tenant. In June, two men installing carpet
in a vacant office building got into a fight that ended with one
of the men — Bryan Giordano — stabbing the other — Hector Fraser
— several times with a carpet knife. Fraser later died at the
hospital. Mark J. Iorio, 18, shot 19-year-old Christopher
Costello to death during a dispute between Westport youths and
Fairfield teens regarding two cases of stolen beer in November
1985. Surprisingly, none of the men convicted of the 1985
murders are currently in prison.
