WOBURN, Mass. (AP) — Olympic figure skater Nancy Kerrigan is expected to be a witness at her brother’s upcoming manslaughter trial in the death of their 70-year-old father.
Kerrigan’s name appears on a joint witness list filed in court Monday by prosecutors and defense attorneys for Mark Kerrigan.
Prosecutors say Daniel Kerrigan died in January 2010 following a fight with his son at the family’s Stoneham, Mass., home.
The Kerrigan family insists Daniel Kerrigan died of a longstanding heart condition and that Mark Kerrigan is not responsible. Nancy Kerrigan has joined her family in publicly defending her brother.
