A New Jersey woman beat a 55-year-old man to death with a tape dispenser and shower rod in a home they shared, authorities said.

Mary Carbone, 56, allegedly attacked Frank Stochel, a local high school janitor, last month at a Manchester Township residence that the victim owned with his wife.

His lifeless body was found on Feb. 24 and Carbone was arrested on murder charges Wednesday, the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office announced Thursday.

“Specially, a tape dispenser and a shower rod were recovered from the scene,” prosecutors said in a statement. “The injuries sustained by Mr. Stochel were consistent with the implementation of these items.”

Exactly what led to the slaying is unclear. Manchester Township Police responded to the 6th Avenue home after getting a report of an unresponsive male there, prosecutors said.

“These detectives combed through a ton of forensic evidence to ultimately determine that Ms. Carbone did in fact cause Mr. Stochel’s death,” Ocean County Prosecutor Bradley Billhimer said in a statement.

Though Stochel lived at the home with Carbone, he owned it with his wife, Cindy, according to property records cited by the Asbury Park Press. At the time of his death, he had been facing charges of burglary, harassment and making terroristic threats following an arrest last October, the paper reported.

He worked as a janitor at Manchester High School for 15 years before leaving in 2018, a school district spokeswoman told the newspaper late last month.

A message seeking additional comment from Ocean County prosecutors was not immediately returned Thursday afternoon.

In addition to murder, Carbone was charged with two counts of possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose and two counts of unlawful possession of a weapon. She was taken to the Ocean County Jail, where she remains pending a detention hearing, Billhimer said.
