A Sandwich man is charged with murder in the death of his sister.
Police were called to conduct a wellbeing check on 61-year-old Jennifer Beltrame on Tuesday and when they arrived at the home, her brother Kenneth told police she was dead inside the house.
Police say Ms. Beltrame was found with obvious signs of violent trauma to her body and her brother was questioned and arrested.
Sixty-seven-year-old Kenneth Beltrame appeared in court Wednesday and he pleaded not guilty.
He is being held without bail pending further psychological evaluation.
His next court date is April 21st.
