Kerwyn Jaggernauth, who has been hospitalized since his wife’s death on Feb. 20, was charged with second-degree murder.

Police were called to the couple’s house at 2:25 p.m. and discovered 32-year-old Sonja Williams dead and Jaggernauth with serious injuries.

Williams was pronounced dead at the scene by the Suffolk County Medical Examiner’s office, police said.

Jaggernauth has improved from critical to serious condition.
