New York State Attorney’s Office Refutes Online Rumors That Dr. Krystal Cascetta, Tim Talty, was involved in the death of her and their child – and confirms it was a shooting, murder and suicide

A New York police officer has refuted online rumors that a husband was involved in the murder and suicide of his wife and their infant daughter after being “dragged through the mud.”

Dr. Krystal Cascetta, 40, entered the nursery in the town of Somers, New York’s Westchester County, around 7 a.m. Saturday, and shot the child before turning the gun on herself.

Cascetta’s husband, Timothy Talty, 37, was away at the time — but Cascetta’s parents were at the $1 million home during the fatal shooting.

Despite the fact, rumors circulated that Talty was somehow involved – which have now been shot down by officials.

NY State Trooper Steven Nevel told Today.com, “The social media trolls are dragging the husband through the mud.

Dr. Krystal Cascetta married Talty in 2019 at a party in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Their daughter was their only child. Police and ambulances had been called to their homes earlier, local residents claimed

“But I can tell you 100% unequivocally, without any doubt, that he didn’t do this.

“People come up with conspiracy theories very easily.

‘He just cooperated. The family has not cooperated.’

The people who were in the house at the time initially thought the gunshot was something that fell on the floor in the nursery. They soon realized that this was not the case.

Police and ambulances had previously been called to the $1 million home of the “very private” family at least twice before the fatal ordeal, her neighbors revealed.

Bob Stuart, 71, who lived near the couple’s house, told the New York Post: “They’ve had ambulances and police come to their house two, maybe three times this summer. At least twice.

“I saw the police and ambulances coming.”

Stuart’s wife, Betsy, added that the family were “very self-contained people,” to the point that they hadn’t heard from them in nearly two years.

The Stuarts said they didn’t even know the doctor was pregnant.

Why police and ambulances were called to the house earlier has not been disclosed.

Authorities have also not released the child’s age and gender, but an online registry suggests the baby was just 4.5 months old.

Law enforcement also later told the Rockland/Westchester Journal News that the baby was a girl and the only child of Cascetta and an energy bar magnate.

A motive for the murder-suicide has yet to be released, as friends and former patients of the New York oncology doctor gather around her.

Dr. Cascetta, a hematology-oncology specialist at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City, lived with Talty in the Granite Springs area of ​​Somers in a $1 million home.

On his Instagram page, Talty had shared images of the two in Austin, Texas, saying Cascetta had come to visit him when they first started dating.

The two were married in 2019 at a party in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, after what Talty described on social media as “so special.”

At the time he said, ‘My wife! It took us a year to plan and a lifetime to gather all the wonderful people to make our wedding so special!’

He now runs his own energy bar company called the Talty Bar and had previously shared online how his wife used her medical and scientific knowledge to provide advice on making the best product.

When DailyMail.com contacted him about his wife’s alleged crime, all he said was, “Can you give us some time?”

Cascetta was a board-certified hematologist and medical oncologist in New York City specializing in breast cancer.

The couple was “very private” and the neighbors had not heard from them for two years

As an internal medicine intern at the Hofstra North Shore LIJ School of Medicine at North Shore University Hospital, she received the Intern of the Year award.

She had also served as a Chief Fellow at Mount Sinai Hospital after completing a fellowship program in hematology and medical oncology.

Cascetta was a member of the American Society of Clinical Oncology and the American Society of Hematology.

She had received her medical degree from Albany Medical College, where she was inducted into the Gold Humanism Honor Society for demonstrating excellence in humanistic clinical care, leadership, compassion, and dedication to service.

A biography on Cascetta described the doctor as an avid runner and fitness enthusiast.

It also says that being a doctor was “in her DNA,” noting that as a child she was often found wrapping her dolls in gauze.

When she was in eighth grade, her mother’s best friend died of breast cancer, which would have spurred her to pursue a career in medicine.

She later became an active investigator of breast cancer clinical trials.

Her friends and patients remembered her Saturday night for her compassion, with Eri Barr posting on Facebook that she was “absolutely devastated” by the news.

“She was my friend at Albany Med and residency,” Barr wrote. “I always looked up to her.”

Maureen Daly also remembered Cascetta as “true to your profession.”

“You were caring and very compassionate to your patients,” she posted of the doctor, adding, “I will miss our conversations.”

Writer Kambri Crews wrote that Cascetta was “a star in her field, a dedicated and lovely, smart and competitive athlete.”

“Years after my cancer surgery, she and I hosted a presentation on breast cancer, and she took me through groundbreaking research and trials,” Crews said. “Because of her, I chose to skip chemo as part of a study.

“I don’t know what happened in her life that made her feel this was the best ending to her story,” the writer continued, “but I know that a large community of survivors, patients and colleagues are heartbroken.

“She cared deeply about her patients and I’m thankful I was one.”
