Bampumim Teixeira, the man arrested in connection to the grisly killings of two wealthy doctors inside their ritzy South Boston condo Friday night, is expected to be arraigned on Monday.
The engaged couple, Dr. Lina Bolanos and Dr. Richard Field, were found with their throats slit inside their 11th floor penthouse on Dorchester Avenue near the Broadway T stop.

The Boston Globe reports that Field texted a friend with a plea for help, and that police found the well-regarded doctors with their hands bound and a message of retribution written on the wall of the condo. Police arrested the suspect, Bampumim Teixeira, 30, of Chelsea, at the scene of the crime after being injured during a shootout with officers responding to reports of a man with a gun inside the building. Teixeira started firing his weapon when officers got to the condo door, police said.h/t actionnewsjax
Teixeira spent the weekend in the hospital, and it’s unclear if he will be arraigned from his hospital bed or if he will appear in court.
Police said Teixeira and his victims knew one another, but the nature of their relationship is unclear.
