The couple reportedly had broken up but Williams, who worked as a physical therapist, was letting Chiasson stay with her while he tried to find a job, family said.

Chiasson’s trial started in the morning on July 5, but during testimony, the defendant’s attorney said his client had decided to plead guilty to the charges against him.
