Source: Suspect in custody in Bartlett homicide

Authorities said Thursday they are investigating the apparent homicide of a 58-year-old Bartlett woman. A source said a suspect is in custody and expected in bond court tomorrow morning.

The victim, Nancy Madonia, was found dead in her home on South Lido Trail at 10:25 a.m. Wednesday after police officers responded to a 911 call there.

Upon arrival, suspicious circumstances were apparent and additional agencies were called for assistance, according to authorities.

The investigation is being jointly conducted by Bartlett police, the Cook County Major Crimes Forensic Unit, the DuPage County coroner's office and the DuPage County state's attorney.

DuPage County Coroner Richard Jorgensen confirmed Thursday afternoon that Madonia's autopsy had been completed but he referred all questions to the DuPage County state's attorney's office.

“There have been no charges filed as of yet, consequently we will not be making any comment regarding this case until charges are filed,” said Paul Darrah, spokesman for the state's attorney's office.
