On the night of January 15, 1989, 40-year-old Betty Jeanne Solomon was found dead in the living room of her Greenburgh condominium. Her husband, Paul Solomon, discovered her body; she had been pistol-whipped and shot nine times in the back and legs. The brutality of the attack drew wide attention.

Investigators initially examined Paul Solomon’s whereabouts; he said he had been at a local bowling alley and later with Carolyn Warmus, a 23-year-old teacher with whom he was having an affair. Detectives then focused on Warmus as the marriage proved troubled and she reportedly continued to pursue Paul after he ended the relationship and began seeing another woman.

Carolyn Warmus was indicted in February 1990 on second-degree murder and criminal possession of a weapon. Her first trial in 1991 ended with a hung jury; a second trial in 1992 produced a guilty verdict. She was convicted of second-degree murder and illegal possession of a firearm and sentenced to 25 years to life. Does anyone have information about Betty Jeanne Solomon’s life in Greenburgh or memories of that case that could shed light on unresolved questions?
