Victor Carter, 40, has been held without bail since his arrest in January, the Norfolk County District Attorney's Office said. He is accused of killing 40-year-old Amber Buckner. He pleaded not guilty to the charges, the prosecutor said.
Police found her body in the yard of a home at 743 Park Street on Dec. 13. The Boston Globe reported she had been stabbed more than two dozen times.
Buckner's family created a GoFundMe for the mother of three but closed it earlier this month after a judge ruled her body would be sent to Texas for burial, the organizer posted.
