Carpio case due in court for status conference today

PROVIDENCE -- The case of Esteban Carpio, accused of killing a Providence police detective at police headquarters last spring, is due in court this afternoon for a status conference.

Lawyers for Carpio are expected to appear before Superior Court Judge William A. Dimitri Jr. It is not known whether Carpio, some of whose previous court appearances have been by videoconference from the state prison, will take part.

Carpio is accused of fatally shooting Detective Sgt. James L. Allen during an interview in a third-floor room at the Public Safety Complex on April 17.
