A Massachusetts man about to stand trial for murder in the death and dismemberment of his wife pleaded guilty Tuesday to disposing of her body and misleading police.

A Massachusetts man charged with killing his wife has been sentenced to more than three years behind bars in an unrelated art fraud case.

Prosecutors say the husband of a Massachusetts woman who has been missing since New Year’s Day suspected she was having an affair and persuaded his mother to hire a private investigator to prove it.

Prosecutors in Massachusetts are basing their murder case against a man whose wife is presumed dead but whose body has not been found in large part on a series of gruesome internet searches.

The Serbian mother of a Massachusetts woman who has been missing since New Year’s Day and whose husband is charged with murder will ask the United States for official information about her daughter’s disappearance.
