DES MOINES, IOWA (AP) -- A man accused of killing his estranged wife and wounding a police officer during a standoff in Des Moines faces an additional charge.
A first-degree sexual assault charge has been filed against Randall Moore, who is also charged with first-degree murder, kidnapping and attempted murder.
Moore is accused of forcing TereseAnn Lynch Moore into her car at a mall parking lot last November. He allegedly drove her to an apartment, where he killed her and wounded a police officer.
The Polk County attorney's office alleges that Moore sexually assaulted his wife before he killed her.
Moore remains in the Polk County jail on $1.5 million bond. His trial is June 21.
His attorney, Jennifer Larson, declined to comment Wednesday.
