Update.
The husband of a woman killed in her Nashville home Aug. 29 has been charged with first-degree murder along with a friend who police say fired the fatal shot.
Three weeks of intense investigation involving hundreds of man-hours led to Tuesday's indictments in the slaying of Veronica Bozza, 39, found dead in her home on New John Hagar Road, according to a Metro police news release.
The victim's estranged husband, Timothy Bozza, 41, and his friend, Cory Cotham, 37, conspired to kill Veronica Bozza, police say. The investigation was headed by Detectives Johnny Crumby and Andrew Injaychock, and supported by a number of expert analysts from the Metro Police Department and the TBI.
Veronica Bozza was shot to death in the living room of her home less than an hour after meeting Timothy Bozza at a parking lot on Thompson Lane to bring the couple's 8-year-old son to spend the night with his father.
The investigation concluded that Cotham committed the slaying while Timothy Bozza headed to his Robertson County home with the child.
Deputy United States Marshals arrested Cotham Tuesday afternoon in Glasgow, Ky. He was being held there as a fugitive from justice, awaiting a court hearing to determine if he will waive extradition to Nashville. The indictments also charge Cotham with especially aggravated robbery.
Hermitage Precinct detectives arrested Bozza Tuesday evening while he was driving in Robertson County. He was booked into Metro Jail.
A judge has ordered both men held without bail until a Criminal Court arraignment date is set.
Anyone with information about Timothy Bozza and/or Cory Cotham is asked to contact detectives at 862-7727.
Veronica Bozza was from Milan, Italy, and was a producer in the television and music industry.
Talked to a friend about a week after it happened who knew her well. She was pretty sure the hubby was in on it. Sad...
