ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — A soldier accused of killing his wife and baby daughter has been arraigned on murder charges.
Spc. Kip Lynch entered not guilty pleas in Anchorage Superior Court on Friday.
The 21-year-old Fort Richardson soldier is accused of killing his family in April at their off-base apartment in Anchorage shortly after returning from Afghanistan. Lynch then turned the gun on himself, shooting himself in the head.
Lynch, a military police officer from Jacksonville, Fla., was treated at Madigan Army Medical Center in Tacoma, Wash. Officials say he has recovered enough to stand trial.
Lynch was arraigned on first and second-degree murder charges Friday, his first court appearance.
