Greenup Murder Trial Set To Begin

{Greenup, Kentucky}...Jury selection is scheduled to begin at 9:00 A.M. Monday in Greenup Circuit Court for Charles Steven "Steve" Lee, who is accused of killing his wife, 40 year old Leslie "Crickett" Lanham Lee on March 4, 2011. Lanham-Lee was found dead in the couple’s home on East Main Street in Greenup. She died of stab wounds to the neck. Lee was indicted October 27, 2011 on a charge of capital murder. He could be sentenced to life in prison if convicted. The commonwealth isn’t seeking the death penalty because the case does not qualify for it.
