I can't imagine what Daniel had to deal with but given the various newspaper articles, acting out would have been expected for a 26 year old male reeling from the murder of his wife.
Daniel was was just 24 years old when he married Carol Ann Manzo in 1968; she was the daughter of Gerald Manzo & Catherine Ciampa. He was the son of Robert J Fitzmaurice & Marie Adeline Swanson.
Two short years later, at the age of 23, she died as a result of being stabbed 14 times - Daniel found her on their living room floor. He died 2 years later in an accident.
This young couple were just starting their life together
