The 26-year-old New Hampshire man charged in the murder of his mother earlier this week was expected in court on Friday, but waived his arraignment.
Grant DeGiacomo, of Hudson, has been charged with second degree murder for the killing of 57-year-old Christine DeGiacomo, the New Hampshire Attorney General's Office announced on Thursday in a joint new release with the Hudson Police Department.
Officers responded to a disturbance call on Shoal Creek Road on Wednesday night, and when they arrived, they found Christine with a traumatic injury, the news release said. She was rushed to the hospital, where she was later pronounced dead.
Grant DeGiacomo is accused of hitting his mother in the head repeatedly.
He was set to be arraigned in Hillsborough Superior Court Friday before waiving the appearance.
