FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. - Authorities in North Carolina say a Marine charged in the death of his wife, an Army nurse, will appear in court along with a fellow serviceman.

The hearing is scheduled for 2 p.m. Tuesday in Fayetteville, near Fort Bragg.

Marine Cpl. John Wimunc (WHY-munk) was charged Monday with murder — as well as first-degree arson and conspiracy to commit arson — in the death of 2nd Lt. Holley Wimunc of Iowa.

Her body was found Sunday, three days after a suspicious fire at her Fayetteville apartment.

Authorities also charged Lance Cpl. Kyle Alden with first-degree arson, conspiracy to commit arson and accessory after the fact to first-degree murder. Both Marines were assigned to Camp Lejeune.
