A 23-year-old man was charged with murder Tuesday in connection with the stabbing death of his mother in her Chatsworth home.
John Soria was expected in San Fernando Superior Court Tuesday afternoon for arraignment in connection with the slaying of 47-year-old Carmen Soria.
Soria, who suffered multiple stab wounds, was found Sunday in the 22100 block of James Alan Circle when her husband and younger son returned home from church.
John Soria was arrested that afternoon and was being held on $1 million bail, Los Angeles police said.
Authorities have not discussed a motive for the killing.
