Red Cross brings Marine Lance Cpl. Cory Killgore home

Family of Marine's slain wife is 'devastated'
April 19, 2012

Killgore's husband, Marine Lance Cpl. Cory Killgore, is returning to San Diego on emergency leave from Afghanistan arranged by the Red Cross after his wife's disappearance. Brittany Killgore had filed for divorce last week.

The father of a slain Marine wife said Thursday that the family is "devastated and asks to be left alone to grieve at this time."

Darryl Wrest said his daughter, Brittany Dawn Killgore, was "a beautiful, kind, caring young woman trying to find her way in this world. Family and friends love and miss Brittany beyond words."

Wrest read a short statement at the San Diego County Sheriff's Department headquarters while flanked by detectives working to solve the death of his 22-year-old daughter.

Meanwhile, Jessica Lynn Lopez, 25, pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder in the case. Her bail was set at $3 million dollars.

Lopez was arrested Tuesday at a San Diego motel; she had attempted to kill herself and left a suicide note, authorities said.

"This case has shaken many in San Diego County and many in the military community at Camp Pendleton," Dist. Atty. Bonnie Dumanis said.
