Blood matching that of missing Marine wife Brittany Dawn Killgore has been found in the car of the chief suspect in her murder, according to new reports.
Killgore was found dead near a lake in Riverside County. Staff Sgt. Louis Ray Perez and Jessica Lynn Lopez were arrested and charged with murder.
Killgore was supposed to be going out for the evening with a Marine Corps sergeant and his girlfriend until the night of April 13 took a frightening turn.
"She sent a text to a female friend of hers indicating that she was in distress," San Diego Deputy District Attorney Patrick Espinoza said Thursday in court.
"She was missing from that point on."
The first details about the investigation came out at Perez's arraignment in Vista, Calif., where the prosecutor revealed the aforementioned text message.
More significantly, officials also stated that police found Killgore's blood in Perez's car as well as a weapon. Authorities have not revealed a possible motive.
Perez's attorney told the judge that Lopez, who had been found with self-inflicted cuts in a motel room, left a suicide note admitting to Killgore's murder.
Both Lopez, 25, and Perez, 45, have pleaded not guilty to all charges. Killgore, the estranged wife of another U.S. Marine, was only 22 years old.

Clearwire's hardly throwing in the towel after that whole "WiMAX" thing; instead, the outfit has its sights firmly set on bringing TDD-LTE to the masses here in America, starting with an initial rollout in early 2013. A release put out today confirms that New York City, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago and Seattle will be among the 31 cities where the company will launch the aforesaid network, though there's no breakdown on which of those metro markets will be forced to wait until "mid-2013" to get served. Speaking of, Clearwire's making no bones about the fact that "high demand hot zones" will be the ones targeted initially, and in a bid to outshine those LTE networks already live, President and CEO Erik Prusch is suggesting that his firm's 4G network "will show that not all LTE networks are created equal." Bold words, sir.
Clearwire's TDD-LTE rolling out in 'early 2013,' coming to NYC, SF, LA, Chicago, Seattle and more originally appeared on Engadget on Thu, 26 Apr 2012 20:10:00 EDT. Please see our terms for use of feeds.

It's no Apple-sized quarter, but you'd need to be on HGTV's Million Dollar Rooms a handful of times over to scoff at Amazon's Q1 2012 earnings. After reporting $177 million in net earnings last quarter (on $17.43 billion in revenue), the online sales behemoth has today registered $13.18 billion in net sales -- proudly reporting that said tally was up from the $9.86 billion in its Q1 a year ago. Excluding the $56 million unfavorable impact from year-over-year changes in foreign exchange rates throughout the quarter, net sales would have grown 34 percent compared with first quarter 2011. As for operating income? That checked in at $192 million (compared to $322 million Q1 2011), with the outfit noting that the "unfavorable impact from year-over-year changes in foreign exchange rates throughout the quarter on operating income was $4 million." Net income also sank 35 percent from $201 million a year ago, but it still left Amazon with $130 million more in the bank than it had just three months ago.
It's important to note that the outfit didn't have "the holidays" here to help out, but it's still a bit worrisome to investors when profit margin shrinks. Focusing on more positive things, CEO Jeff Bezos noted that Amazon has "over 130,000 new, in-copyright books that are exclusive to the Kindle Store," again reminding the world that Amazon Prime members can "borrow them for free with no due dates." We're also told that the Kindle Fire remains the top, most gifted and most wished for product across its entire store, while pointing out that the North American sales segment was up 36 percent from Q1 2011 (reaching $7.43 billion). Our overseas comrades -- specifically, Amazon's UK, German, Japanese, French, Chinese, Italian and Spanish sites -- accounted for $5.76 billion in sales, up 31 percent year-over-year. Worldwide media sales saw a 19 percent uptick to $4.71 billion, while global electronics and "other merchandise" saw sales grow a whopping 43 percent to $7.97 billion. Notably, the company continually banged on unfavorable exchange rates, so if you're looking for a place to heap blame... well, there you go.

A joint venture of Canadian carriers Rogers, Bell and Telus called EnStream is in final talks with the country's leading banks (likely CIBC, TD, RBC, Scotiabank and BMO) to bring a mobile wallet solution to the Great White North within six months. The system, which was demoed at the CWTA Wireless Showcase last September, enables mobile payments by storing a user's financial credentials on the SIM located inside their NFC-capable phone. It aims to replace credit and debit cards at first -- perhaps even driver's licenses and loyalty programs down the road. Carriers plan to charge banks a flat rate instead of a per-transaction fee.
According to Almis Ledas, EnStream's COO, "banking machines will become the payphones of the future". While we command this attempt to standardize mobile payments in Canada, the time frame seems rather optimistic in light of the slow progress AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon have made with Isis in the US so far. Different countries, different rules of course -- still, we think it's going to take quite a while to make loonies obsolete. Maybe this is the perfect window of opportunity for Google Wallet and Square to jump across the border, eh? Time will tell. Check out EnStream's mobile wallet in action on video after the break.

Insurance premium financing arrangements have become a great deal more prevalent over the past few years. This is especially true for agents who work with high net worth policy holders who have a low amount of liquidity available for paying the large policy premiums that are due.
These types of premium loan agreements are a nice alternative to these wealthy individuals as they would otherwise likely need to obtain the needed cash by selling off personal or business assets.
Over time, as these types of transactions come more into the limelight, it will be necessary for insurance professionals to either move into this industry as well, or to delegate this particular responsibility to an already established expert in the premium financing field.
Why Partner with a Premium Finance Loan Company?
The reasons for insurance professionals to partner with a premium finance loan company are many. First, these firms or individuals can literally take the transaction from start to finish ? leaving you the time and flexibility to focus on your specific business.
These companies will take care of arranging all of the necessary paperwork for the financing arrangement, and oftentimes the companies will also be the actual lender of the borrowed funds as well.
Once the arrangement is in place, the premium finance loan company will often stay on board, taking on the responsibility of the ongoing duties such as making premium payments for the insured?s policy as well as billing the policy holder for the premium loan repayments.
There are a number of rules and regulations that go hand in hand with premium finance agreements. In addition, many of the requirements in one state may differ a great deal from those in another.
In any case, all persons and organizations that transact any type of insurance premium loan financing must become licensed in every state in which they conduct business. Thus, by partnering with such an entity, insurance agents and brokers may pass along this requirement to the premium financing organization.
Some of the Top Premium Finance Loan Companies in the United States
Although the premium financing niche is still relatively new and unknown to many, there are a number of top companies that are active in the industry ? and a number of these firms possess several decades of experience in the field.
While there are premium financing specialists located throughout the nation, it is typically best to work with a company or individual that is both licensed and has a location in the clients? state of residence. This way, you can be more assured that the financing arrangement will comply with the specific state?s rules. In addition, this will offer much more convenience should any in-person meetings be required with the client / policy holder.
To find your next premium financing partner, contact any the companies that are listed below. These firms can provide you with the guidance that you need, even for those hard to place deals. Help can typically be found via phone and online chat, and quotes can usually be obtained by submitting a no obligation application directly on the companies? websites.
