DAB News Journal
The wife of slain Seminole County firefighter Jerry Perdomo appeared in Maine state court today as her husband's accused killer stood in for a bail hearing this afternoon.
The Bangor Daily News confirmed Tanya Lynn Perdomo was in the Waldo County Superior court today.
Daniel Porter, 24, is accused of killing Perdomo, 31, of Orange City, whose body was later found in the woods with a gunshot wound to the head.
Court observers said Porter's family and friends showed in full force, occupying at least four rows of the Waldo County Superior Court gallery behind him.
Last week in court, Porter's attorney claimed his client acted in self-defense.
His attorney, Jeffrey Silverstein, said detectives could release more information about the case in today's hearing. He said that the facts have yet to be made public.
In documents released last week, Maine state police learned Perdomo traveled to the state frequently and at least one person said both men were engaged in "drug activity."
Perdomo's body was found on rural property owned by one of Porter's relatives.
He fled the state after video surveillance showed Porter driving Perdomo's rental car and discarding the man's personal belongings in a trash dump.
Perdomo's family told the Seminole County fire department that funeral services will be limited to close friends and family, according to spokeswoman Paula Thompson.
The department does not have plans for a separate ceremony, she said.
