LA TIMES: Husband/Wife Bodybuilders Sought in LV Slaying
LAS VEGAS -- Husband and wife bodybuilders Craig Titus and Kelly Ryan were being sought today in the slaying of a woman whose body was found last week in the trunk of a burned Jaguar sedan, authorities said.
Las Vegas police have not offered a motive for the killing or the name of the victim, who investigators think was a 28-year-old woman who had lived with Titus and Kelly in southwest Las Vegas.
Investigators were awaiting DNA results before releasing the woman's name. Her charred remains were found Dec. 14 in a burned 2003 Jaguar off state Route 160 southwest of the city.
Titus, 40, and Ryan, 33, face warrant charges of murder and third-degree arson, police said.
A third suspect, Anthony Gross, 23, remained today at Clark County jail following his arrest Wednesday in Las Vegas on charges of accessory to murder and third-degree arson. He was due to appear next Tuesday in a Las Vegas court.
The 5-foot-9-inch, 250-pound Titus won titles at the June 1996 National Physique Committee USA Championships, and competed in Mr. Olympia events.
He pleaded guilty in Louisiana in April 1995 to conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute the party drug ecstasy, and served two years in jail for steroid-related offenses from 1997 to 1999.
Ryan is a past Fitness America and Fitness International winner and Fitness Olympia runner-up who worked as a loan officer for Silver State Mortgage in Las Vegas.
They married in June 2000, according to Clark County records
