A murder charge filed after a reported suicide is the accusation. It is not a finding of how Kenia Noel died, and a not-guilty plea does not decide it either. She is dead. The next date is Jan. 5, and he is being held without bail until then.
Jean Eddy Noel, 43, of Malden, was charged with murder in the death of his sister, Kenia Noel, 38. Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan and Malden Police Chief Marc Gatcomb announced the charge Friday. A not-guilty plea was entered for him in Malden District Court. He was held without bail and is due back Jan. 5, 2027.
On Thursday, Nov. 12, he called 911 and reported a suicide on Lombard Court. Officers found Kenia Noel dead. Authorities said she had obvious trauma to her neck. Police found three knives: one in her hand, one covered in blood on a nearby table, and a third on a bedroom floor.
Prosecutors said he left the home to shower after her death, and that someone had tried to clean the scene before officers arrived. Police said his hands had cuts consistent with lacerations and that what appeared to be blood was in his car.
All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

BREAKINGICE Arrests Driver in Chicago Heights
This is the department's account of an arrest, and it is not a criminal conviction. The release describes a leg injury and a same-day arrest. It does not set out a filed charge, a bail amount, or a court date, and an earlier arrest is not a finding about this stop.

BREAKINGFatal DUI Driver Arrested by ICE
The guilty plea and the 18-year sentence were the judgment for Gregory Homola's death, and parole did not undo it. The immigration arrest is detention under a removal order from 2010, not a new case about the crash. Whether the Nov. 2 parole was early has to be read against that 2012 judgment, which required at least 85 percent of the term before good-time credit.
