    "This is the sixth time you've been back," said Judge Susan B. Handy. "These are murder charges, and I am very concerned."Bialowas also faces charges of evading responsibility and driving with a suspended license. Connecticut law gives defendants the right to a probable cause hearing within 60 days of an arrest, but in court this morning Bialowas said he was waiving that right until he had retained an attorney.
