TRENTON, NJ (MERCER)–The Trenton man recently arrested for purposefully disturbing, moving and/or concealing human remains was charged this week with the murder of Corrine Daniels, Mercer County Prosecutor Angelo J. Onofri reported.
Alton Eubanks, 48, of Trenton, was arrested on October 12, 2002, in Middleburg, NY, by members of the U.S. Marshals NY/NJ Regional Fugitive Task Force. On November 7, 2022, he was charged with first-degree murder. The prosecutor’s office has filed a motion to detain Eubanks pending trial.
The charge is the result of an investigation by the Mercer County Homicide Task Force and the Trenton Police Department. On September 21, 2022, Trenton Communications received a call for a well-being check at a residence on Park Avenue. Responding officers forced entry and located the body of a deceased individual in the basement. On September 22, an autopsy was conducted by the Middlesex County Medical Examiner’s Office. The victim was identified as Corrine Daniels, 41, of Park Avenue in Trenton.
Investigation into Daniels’ death revealed that she and Eubanks lived together at the Park Avenue address as boyfriend and girlfriend. After Daniels’ death, Eubanks placed her body in a black trash bag and moved her to the basement where she was located by officers.
An autopsy conducted by the Middlesex County Medical Examiner’s Office concluded Daniels’ death was a homicide caused by multiple blunt force injuries.
Despite having been charged, every defendant is presumed innocent until found guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
