Mendham woman identified after stabbing death; mayor wins close primary
Police have identified a Morris County woman found stabbed to death, while Mendham Borough sees a tight mayoral race.
Morris County police have released the identity of a woman who was stabbed to death in her home. The identification comes nearly one month after authorities discovered the victim's body at the suburban residence.
In local politics, the Mendham Borough mayor has secured victory by just two votes. Sources indicate this narrow margin could lead to a recount for other council races where candidates are separated by four votes.
The mayoral primary was described as close between James Kelly and Neil Henry. While the vote difference appears small in raw numbers, it represents a significant win within the context of a small town election.
