Jared Remy: Boston Red Sox announcer's son charged with murdering girlfriend a day after
The son of Boston Red Sox announcer and former player Jerry Remy is accused of stabbing to death his girlfriend just a day after the hulking former security guard was released without bail for assaulting her.
Jared Remy, 34, will be arraigned today on murder and domestic assault charges in the gruesome slaying of Jennifer Martel, which took place at their Waltham, Massachusetts home in the presence of their young daughter.
Police arrived at the residence in the Windsor Village apartment complex at around 9:30 p.m. on Thursday following multiple 911 calls. They found Martel, 27, bleeding in the fenced-in patio covered in stab wounds.
'There appeared to be a struggle occurring inside and outside,' Middlesex District Attoey Marian T. Ryan said.
Martel was rushed to hospital where she later died and Remy, a hulking muscle-man, was arrested at the scene.
On Wednesday, Remy, who in 2005 admitted beating up a former girlfriend, appeared in Waltham District Court to face allegations that he assaulted Martel in a domestic violence incident on Tuesday night.
He was released on personal recognizance, and Ryan said that the bail recommendation made by her office was based, in part, on a conversation with Martel.

'The bail recommendation was based on a totality of circumstances,' Ryan said.
A large bloodstain was visible on the patio on Friday next to a small pink tricycle. An evidence marker with the number 1 on it was placed next to the stain.
'It's creepy, it's a couple hundred yards from my window,' one neighbor told Boston.com last night as Waltham police and State Police investigated the bloody crime scene. 'The little girl was literally selling lemonade the other day.'
Remy suffered an unspecified injury that wasn't self-inflicted, authorities said. He was taken to a hospital and released to await arraignment.

The neighbor described Remy as a very nice guy, though he Remy had 15 prior cases out of Waltham District Court between 1998-2010, according to the Boston Herald.
In 2009, Remy, then a security guard for the Red Sox, and a colleague were accused of using steroids. He was fired after he admitted using the performance-enhancing drug, but he denied supplying steroids to his coworker.
The couple's daughter was unhurt is now in the custody of the Department of Children and Families. They also had two pitbulls.
Jerry Remy is a former Red Sox second baseman who has been a color analyst on team broadcasts on the New England Sports Network since 1988. He has struggled with health problems in recent years.
