A Miramar-based Marine must stand trial on a murder charge in the strangulation death of his 19-year-old stripper bride of two months, who was killed while she slept in their Mira Mesa apartment , a judge ruled Wednesday.
Lance Cpl. Patrick Thomas Poteat, a 21-year-old electronics technician, faces 25 years to life in prison if convicted in the Jan. 5 death of Kalyn O’Barr-Poteat.
San Diego police Detective Mike Holden testified during a 90-minute preliminary hearing that he and other officers drove to the Joshua Tree area the morning of Jan. 5 and brought him back to San Diego for questioning.

Poteat said he wasn’t jealous of his wife but didn’t like what she did for a living, the detective said. The defendant said he didn’t want to be a hypocrite because he had met his wife while she was working as a stripper, the detective said.
