(West Valley, NY, March 10, 2008) - - A man whose job is to uphold the law... Is now facing murder charges.
A Buffalo State Police Officer is accused of murdering his live-in girlfriend and dumping her body.
News Four's Melissa Holmes has the story.
Law enforecement officials from multiple agencies and jurisdictions came together in Orleans County this afternoon to discuss a shocking crime.
Buffalo State College Police Officer and father of two- Richard McKeon- is accused of killing his girlfriend- 47-year-old Maureen Migliore.
An off duty corrections officer found her badly burned and naked body early friday morning on this rural road in the Town of Barre in Orleans County.
Joseph Cardone\Orleans County D.A., "We believe her to be burned at the scene and there was evidence of an accellerant at the scene."
A medical examiner identified Migliore's body through fingerprints and found she was strangled. But the exact cause of death is still unclear.
Investigators believe it all started with a fight in their home in West Valley in Cattaraugus County. And between evidence found at the home and statements McKeon made to police, they believe they have enough to link him to the murder.
"He's made certain statements and whether those constitute a confession I guess we'll leave to a jury."
Migliore had one daughter and sources say she was a prostitue and had a criminal history. Police say that has nothing to do with her death.
