The murder happened last September at the apartment in Parsippany.
According to the prosecutor’s office, an indictment was returned against Lila Lucariello, 33, charging her with first-degree murder.
The prosecutor’s office says Lucariello’s husband called 911 after finding the body inside their apartment.
When police arrived, they found Salwa Kahn-Tamr, age 58, of Prospect Park.
