Charles Cuozzo was trying to protect his kid brother when he was shot in the chest and killed by a man who robbed the family’s Capitol Hill grocery store nearly four decades ago. The hefty case file from 1968 lists droves of suspects and witnesses, but police never nabbed the killer.
On a hot July afternoon in 1968, 50-year-old Charles was in the meat freezer in the rear of the store while his younger brother, Dominic, worked the cash register out front, according to police reports.
