GREELEY, Colo. (AP) - A judge says a man accused in his ex-wife's presumed death will face trial on a charge of first-degree murder.
The judge bound John Sandoval over for trial Wednesday. Sandoval is being held without bond after being arrested in Las Vegas this summer to face charges in the disappearance of Kristina Tournai Sandoval.
She disappeared Oct. 19, 1995, after telling friends and family she was going to talk to her ex-husband about money he owed her.
Her body has not been found, but Weld District Attorney Ken Buck has said the passage of time has weakened the likely defense that she just left without telling anyone.
