(AP) – A second person has come forward with a claim that a woman
charged with luring a man to her suburban St. Louis home to kill him by
pretending to be a “Dateline” producer tried the same story with him.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that 30-year-old Brent Charlton said a
woman matching the description of Pamela Hupp used the producer story on Aug.
10. He told reporters that’s what he told police, though authorities won’t
confirm that. He’s listed as a witness in the charging documents. Authorities
say they can’t comment because of the ongoing investigation.
Charlton is the second person to make such a claim. Prosecutors said
previously that a woman was approached.
Hupp has pleaded not guilty in the Aug. 16 killing of Louis Gumpenberger.
