HUTCHINSON, Kan. (AP) -- A Lyons man charged in the death of his girlfriend has a brother who has been convicted in a separate murder in Barton County.
Prosecutors charged 35-year-old Armando Mosqueda with first-degree murder Monday in the death of 31-year-old Jeannie Jacobsen of Lyons. She was found stabbed to death on Sunday.
Mosqueda's brother, 31-year-old Antonio Mosqueda Jr. of Great Bend, pleaded guilty in September to second-degree murder in Barton County in the August 2008 shooting death of 30-year-old Jose L. Villanueva Jr. He is scheduled to be sentenced Thursday.
Antonio Mosqueda was accused of killing Villanueva on Aug. 12, 2008, after a night of drinking with friends. Investigators have not been able to determine a motive for the slaying.
