Thomas Maimoni, 62, only acknowledged being guilty of panicking and
trying to get rid of the body of 37-year-old Martha Brailsford by
dumping her into the waters off Marblehead with weights attached. He
maintained that a rogue wave knocked her overboard.
"I hope to convey straight away my profound remorse for my actions
regarding the disposal of Martha's remains at sea," he testified.
Maimoni denied Brailsford went sailing with him. Three days later, he
changed his story, telling police he took Brailsford for a short ride
from Salem Willows Pier to Winter Island Pier.
a lobsterman pulled her nude body from the sea. An anchor was tied to
one of her ankles, and a weighted belt was fastened around her waist.
An autopsy revealed she suffered three blunt trauma wounds to her head
and was missing several teeth, but the cause of death was drowning.
The women said Maimoni seemed friendly at first, but became sexually
aggressive once they were away from shore.
