Two months after Brooke Hanlon, 35, was found stabbed to death in her Chester, New Jersey home, her family has expressed confidence in the ongoing investigation.
The Morris County Prosecutor’s Office is leading the investigation into Hanlon's death, which has been classified as a homicide due to “multiple sharp force injuries.” As of August 13, no suspect or person of interest has been publicly identified.
“We have full and unwavering confidence in the investigative efforts of law enforcement,” the Haggerty family, Hanlon’s parents and sister, said in a statement provided to Fox News Digital. The family is actively sharing details about Hanlon, remembering her as a psychotherapist who was a devoted wife, daughter, sister, and friend.
Brooke Hanlon was discovered deceased on June 6. Her husband, James “Conor” Hanlon, made a 911 call reporting he found his wife unresponsive on their home's floor. In the call, he requested CPR instructions and noted a "laceration" on her body.
Brooke and Conor Hanlon were married in June 2021, having met in Boston. They relocated to Chester, New Jersey, in September 2023. According to an obituary, they purchased their home in September 2024 and welcomed their daughter, Avery, in July 2025.
An obituary described Hanlon as having a passion for her work as a therapist, demonstrating “tremendous compassion” for her clients. She is also remembered for her "extraordinary kindness, friendship, loyalty, empathy, compassion, humility, generosity, and passionate desire to help and support family, friends, and all those she counseled."
Hanlon graduated from Villa Walsh Academy in 2009. She went on to earn a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Wake Forest University in 2013 and a master’s degree from Northeastern University in 2015.
Conor Hanlon has not been charged with any crime or wrongdoing. Fox News Digital has made repeated attempts to reach him for comment.
