Orlando, FL: Man charged with killing wife who was trying to leave him

An Orange County man allegedly killed his wife Thursday morning after a domestic dispute. Then he turned himself in.

Cedric Harp, 33, showed up at an Orlando Police substation and said he seriously injured his wife. The case was turned over to Orange County, who sent deputies to the Harp home.

When fire and rescue arrived on scene, they pronounced Mrs. Harp dead. Two kids were in the home when Harp allegedly killed his wife, but were sleeping and told investigators that they didn't hear anything.

It's believed Harp's marriage was failing, and his wife was trying to leave the house. When he tried to stop her, that's when things may have gotten out of hand. Harp has an extensive criminal history. He's been charged with 2nd degree murder.
