Marion was wanted for the Thursday, Dec. 3, 2020, stabbing assault of 58-year-old Gregory Williams, of Bridgeport, that resulted in his death on Monday, Oct. 10, 2022, Gilleran said.
Williams was 68 at the time of his death. The state Medical Examiner's Office ruled the cause of his death as respiratory complications due to a remote stab wound of the torso. The manner of his death was listed as a homicide.
