Michelina Goodwin, 45, and Larry Murphy, 40, both of Great Mills, have been charged with multiple counts of murder for their alleged roles in the death of 50-year-old James Volodimir Nalborczyk, who was reported missing in St. Mary’s County late last year.

Nalborczyk was reported missing to Maryland State Police on Dec. 21, 2022, and the investigation determined that foul play was involved in his sudden disappearance.

Police say that after he was reported missing, Nalborczyk's body was found in remote areas of Charles County and St. Mary’s County. He has been transported to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner for an autopsy.

According to the Southern Maryland News Net, Nalborczyk was in a relationship with Goodwin, who told his family that she was going to break up with him. The report then states that in December, all three involved in the murder were at their Great Mills home and she pointed a gun at Nalborczyk that discharged during an altercation.

Both Goodwin and Murphy were charged with:

  • First-degree murder;
  • Second-degree murder;
  • Improper disposal of a body.

Goodwin was also charged with the use of a firearm in the commission of a felony or crime of violence, and Murphy was charged with accessory after the fact of murder.

Both are being held without bond at the St. Mary’s County Detention Center.
