Bynum, pastor of Crying Out Loud Ministries in Sanford, is among several people being questioned. Moore County deputies said they consensually searched the Bynum hope near Pine Bluff.

The victim's body was found north of Hamlet in Richmond County around 2:30 a.m. According to the sheriff's office, she was found in the trunk of a car that is believed to be hers.

Three counties and the State Bureau of Investigation were on the case Monday.

That's sad Eric. Before even finishing this article, I began to wonder if the husband was responsible.

Which is sad because out there will be a murder victim someday soon and the spouse will not be the guilty party. But we will all suspect the spouse possibly.
