The Bridgewater man suspected of murdering his former wife in Medfield last week was found dead Monday night in North Carolina.

Police say Andrew Boisvert, 38, of 25 Summerdale Farms, Bridgewater appeared to have hanged himself. He was charged last Friday of murder in the slaying of Margaret Ninos, 47, a delivery nurse at Boston hospital, who was found dead in her Medfield home last Wednesday, the Boston Globe reported.

The Norfolk County District Attorney’s office reported Monday that a man matching Boisvert’s description appeared to have hanged himself in a remote part of a rest area off Interstate 77 near Statesville, N.C. A rest stop worker found his car, a black 1998 Jeep Wrangler, which was given to him by his attorney, William Scannel around 8:51 in a remote part of the rest stop, about an hour north of Charlotte.

Local law enforcement officials say the appearance of the man found hanging is consistent with the photo on the license of Andrew Boisvert found in the pocket of the dead man, according to the district attorney's office.

He also had in his possession an envelope addressed to law enforcement whose contents indicated he was wanted for murder in Massachusetts.

North Carolina officials will determine the formal cause of death and final identification in the coming days.

Boisvert was the father of Ninos’ 7-year-old daughter and was involved in a custody battle with her.
