HONOLULU (AP) -- The military is considering whether an Army medic charged with conspiring with his lover to kill his wife will be court-martialed for child pornography and prostitution charges.
Sgt. Michael Walker has pleaded not guilty to a murder charge in civilian court in the killing of Catherine Walker, who was found stabbed to death in November 2014 in the military housing the couple shared in Honolulu.
New allegations surfaced during a military judicial hearing Wednesday. Michael Walker is accused of possessing and viewing child pornography and receiving money in exchange for sex with men, an Army prosecutor said. His Army defense attorneys declined to comment after the hearing.
"Sgt. Walker is alleged to have posted on Craigslist soliciting individuals to engage in sexual acts in exchange for his receiving money," Jim Guzior, spokesman for Tripler Army Medical Center, where Walker has been assigned since 2013, said in an email to The Associated Press. "Sgt. Walker is alleged to have solicited three men to engage in sexual contact."
