A man suspected of killing his wife while on a cruise ship in the US state of Alaska did so because \u201cshe would not stop laughing\u201d at him, a witness says.<\/p>\n

Kenneth Manzanares has been charged with the murder of his 39-year-old wife, whose body was found with severe head wounds in their cabin.<\/p>\n

He was detained after security agents found blood on his hands and clothes, court documents said.<\/p>\n

Mr Manzanares\u2019 court-appointed public defender has not commented.<\/p>\n

The victim has been identified by US media as Kristy Manzanares, from Utah.<\/p>\n

A witness who entered the couple\u2019s cabin before the security agents said he saw the 39-year-old suspect dragging the victim\u2019s body to the balcony, the documents said.<\/p>\n

The witness then grabbed the woman\u2019s ankles and pulled her back in.<\/p>\n

When he asked Mr Manzanares what had happened, the man allegedly said: \u201cShe would not stop laughing at me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Later, during a search by FBI agents, the suspect said, according to the documents: \u201cMy life is over.\u201d<\/p>\n

The incident happened on Tuesday night on the Emerald Princess cruise ship, operated by Princess Cruises. It had departed with some 3,400 passengers from Seattle on Sunday for a week-long trip.<\/p>\n

Kristy Manzanares was described by her employer, Summit Sotheby\u2019s International Realty, as being a \u201cdedicated and loving mother who juggled her business schedule to make her children a top priority.\u201d<\/p>\n

The FBI is investigating the case because it occurred in US waters. A spokesman said other family members were onboard the ship on the same trip, but details about them have not been released.<\/p>\n

Mr Manzanares made his first appearance in a federal court in Anchorage via video link from Juneau, where he was being held. A hearing has been scheduled for 10 August.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
