Funeral Service To Be Held For Slain Woodbridge Mother Of 3

Funeral services will be held next week for a Woodbridge woman, whose ex-husband has been charged with her murder, according to published reports.

A service for Giorgina Cimino Nigro, 32, will be held Monday from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Branchburg Funeral Home on Route 202, according to NJ.com.

Her family members plan to wear purple, a color that represents domestic violence awareness, mycentraljersey.com said.

Nigro was found dead July 22 in her Devon Road home in the Colonia section of Woodbridge. She died of blunt force and sharp force trauma, authorities have said.

Vito Nigro, 42, has been charged with murder and possession of a weapon for unlawful purposes.

Both NJ.com and mycentraljersey.com reported that the couple was divorced. They were living in the same home when the 32-year-old woman was killed, authorities said.

Quoting sources, both newspapers have reported that Vito Nigro then attempted suicide by jumping into traffic on the Garden State Parkway.

Authorities have only said that Vito Nigro was at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Brunswick, with bail set at $750,000.

The couple’s three young children, 4- and 6-year-old girls, and a 9-year-old boy, are now with their maternal grandmother, according to NJ.com.

Woodbridge Detective Andrew Kondracki and Detective Craig Marchak of the Middlesex County Prosecutor’s Office are handling the investigation. Anyone with information is asked to call Kondracki at (732) 634-7700, or Marchak at (732) 745-3254.
