WADENA, Minn. — A grand jury has indicted a Wadena man in connection to his wife’s murder nearly four months ago — on the same day he had been released from jail on domestic assault charges.

According to court papers, Antonio St. Marie shot his estranged wife, Margaret St. Marie, in her Wadena home Nov. 7, 2016, after holding her at gunpoint. Her brother, James Flath, Jr., and a young child were also held at gunpoint but were able to escape.
