Estranged boyfriend charged in woman’s slaying
WASHINGTON, Pa. (AP) — A western Pennsylvania man has been charged in the stabbing death of his estranged girlfriend.
Twenty-one-year-old Karissa Kunco was reported missing Jan. 11 after she failed to return to her home in Baldwin, Washington County.
Her body was later found in a wooded area in the Mount Pleasant area, about 40 miles southwest of Pittsburgh, and her car was found crashed into a tree about six miles away.
Twenty-two-year-old Jordan Clemons of Pittsburgh was charged Monday with criminal homicide, aggravated assault, abuse of a corpse, tampering with evidence and other counts.
Defense attorney Peter Marcoline III declined comment on the charges but said he will defend his client vigorously in this and two other cases.
