''Esquire''. 133 (3):166, March 2000.〕 Diane was 15 and Richard was 17 when McDermott was born; by 1967, the couple had divorced, and Diane and her two children were living with her mother, Avis (Rogers) Marino.〔 On February 9, 1967, Diane was killed.〔 Her death was originally ruled an accident, but police later claimed that evidence they had found would be enough to file murder charges against John Sponza, who had been living with Diane at the time. Sponza told authorities that Diane accidentally shot herself after picking up a gun he had been cleaning. Sponza, who police say had ties to organized crime, was killed in 1972; his body was found in the trunk of a car in a Waltham, Massachusetts grocery store parking lot.〔("Dylan McDermott is on a path of rediscovery" ), ''Washington Post'' - MSNBC.com〕 McDermott and his sister were raised by Avis in Waterbury.〔 As a teenager, he began taking trips to visit his father, who owned the West Fourth Street Saloon in Greenwich Village, New York.
