Danbury Worker’s Domestic Case Shifted To Supervised Pretrial

A Danbury parks maintenance foreman accused in a June domestic incident is moving into the court’s supervised pretrial docket. 42 year old Nelson Lopes faces felony threatening and strangulation charges along with several misdemeanors. His attorney requested the docket change, which lets a judge work directly with the defense on a possible plea. The state pulled an earlier offer, and the next hearing is set for December 17.
