MOYOCK, N.C. (AP) - Authorities say a North Carolina man having marital problems was killed by his bodybuilding wife in their Currituck County home.
Deputies told The Virginian-Pilot of Norfolk, Va., that 38-year-old Lateisha Jandreau was arrested Saturday by officers with a search warrant after they found her 51-year-old husband's body hidden in the couple's garage.
Mike Jandreau says his brother Paul told him he was having problems with his wife, but wasn't scared. The two had been married for about eight years after meeting in a kickboxing class and Lateisha Jandreau won a state bodybuilding championship last month.
Jandreau is charged with first degree murder and is being held at the Currituck County jail without bond. It wasn't immediately clear if she had an attorney.
