Edna Ciesienski, 59, of Woodbridge has been charged with murder and possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose for the overnight killing of her housemate, according to Middlesex Prosecutor Yolanda Ciccone and Director Robert Hubner of the Woodbridge Police Department.
At 12:03 a.m. on Friday, police officers responded to 1256 St. Georges Ave. in the Avenel section of Woodbridge where they found David Seniakevgch, 60, of Woodbridge.
