Prosecutors in Alaska say a US Army soldier, Zarrius Hildabrand, killed his wife of less than a year, Saria Barney, and dumped her in a storm drain before joining growing search parties. A criminal complaint laid out evidence investigators gathered against Hildabrand, including suspiciously-timed text messages, multiple trips to stores to buy possible cleanup supplies, and signs of a violent, bloody incident inside the couple's bedroom. Now, as Hildabrand's murder trial gets underway, Law&Crime's Jesse Weber takes a closer look at the most intense moments from opening statements.
