New Hampshire

Trial Over Money Following Relatives' Deaths Postponed

A probate judge has postponed the upcoming trial of a man accused by relatives of killing his millionaire grandfather for inheritance money after the family fired some lawyers and the man was told to hire his own.

The New Hampshire trial was scheduled to start Jan. 22 for 24-year-old Nathan Carman, a Vermont man originally from Middletown, Connecticut, who's denied in any role in his grandfather's shooting death in Windsor, Connecticut in 2013.

Carman's also denied any role in the disappearance of his mother, Linda Carman, during a 2016 fishing trip. Their boat sank near Rhode Island. Carman's three aunts believe Carman killed her and are trying to prevent him from inheriting the mother's share of her father's estate.

The grandfather, John Chakalos, left his four daughters, including Carman's mother, an estate worth more than $42 million.
