[THESUN.CO.UK] A HUSBAND accused of murdering his wife aboard a cruise ship off the coast of Alaska broke down in tears as he appeared in court last night.Kenneth Manzanares, 39, wore an orange jumpsuit and was shackled at the ankles as he appeared at the US District Court in Alaska via video link.
Manzanares appeared to be crying at times before the hearing and near the start, dabbing his eyes and nose with tissues.
It has transpired that Kristy, 39, was found with a severe head wound, but authorities have declined to release other details in the case.
This includes how many people were travelling with the couple on the 3,400-passenger Emerald Princess that left Sunday from Seattle.
According to court documents, a man and other people went into the room before medical workers and security officers had arrived and saw the woman on the floor covered in blood.
The man asked Manzanares what happened, and the suspect said "she would not stop laughing at me", according to the FBI complaint.
Manzanares then grabbed his wife’s body and tried to drag her to the balcony, but the man stopped him, the documents says.
