New Trial Denied for Caius Veiovis
Staff Reports
PITTSFIELD, Mass.— Caius Veiovis' request for a new trial was denied.
Veiovis, now 46, was one of three men convicted in the murder of David Glasser, Edward Frampton, and Robert Chadwell in 2011. He is also known as Roy Gutfinski.
In 2014, he was sentenced to three consecutive life terms for the alleged kidnapping, killing, and dismembering of the Pittsfield men. They were last seen at a city apartment shared by Glasser and Frampton on Aug. 28, 2011; their dismembered bodies were found in Becket that September.
According to AP News, Veiovis told the jury, "I'll see you in hell" after the conviction.
On Tuesday, the Berkshire District Attorney's Office reported that following a final hearing held on June 26, 2026, Justice Michael D. Ricciuti issued an order on Oct. 23, 2026, denying Veiovis's motion for post-conviction relief.
The motion had requested a new trial based chiefly on claims of ineffective assistance by his trial attorney and newly discovered evidence.
Post-conviction relief is a legal process that allows a convicted person to challenge a criminal conviction or sentence in the trial court after direct appeals have ended or were not filed.
"District Attorney Capeless' unwavering commitment to pursuing justice and ensuring it is maintained in this case has been truly remarkable," District Attorney Timothy Shugrue said.
"His efforts in handling this difficult and complex criminal matter have helped make Berkshire County a safer place."
