EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — An Oregon brother and sister have been arrested in Minnesota and charged with murder in the death of the sister’s husband in Nevada.
Timothy Wayne Morgan of Eugene and his sister, 30-year-old Kristi Michelle Preimesberger, were being held at the Ramsey County jail in St. Paul, Minn., pending extradition to Nevada.
Police told The Register-Guard in Eugene that the 25-year-old Morgan was arrested on August 10 in Roseville, Minn., on drug charges before investigators learned about the Nevada murder charges.
Eugene police searched a portable storage unit last month, looking for the body of the woman’s husband, Eric Preimesberger of Reno, Nev.
