The Unsettling Familiarity of Obsessive Behavior The arrest of Matthew Almontes, accused of murdering his ex girlfriend Tisha Marinoccio in a Connecticut apartment complex, is a chilling reminder that obsessive behavior can be both persistent and violent.
What's striking about this case isn't just the brutal nature of the crime itself, but rather the months long period during which Almontes openly discussed his intentions with at least one witness.
According to investigators, an employee at the Orange Street apartment complex reported hearing Almontes talk about stabbing Marinoccio for six months before the fatal attack.
