New Probate Judge Assigned To Therrien Case

As I have previously discussed, in Connecticut, a probate judge wants to remove Candace Bednarz from being the fiduciary in her murdered mother’s estate. The court has already ruled payments to creditors are the only distributions to be made out of the estate. The judge recently found out that Bednarz was arrested by police her for tampering with evidence in her mothers murder prosecution. Brett Bednarz, Candace’s brother, has pending charges against him for killing his mother, Beverly Therrien. 

Recently, probate Judge Michael M. Darby has been assigned to hear proceedings regarding the estate of Beverly Therrien. Former Judge Allan Driscoll, recused himself but has not disclosed the reason for his recusal. Darby had a status meeting Monday to get famaliar with the case.
