Police have charged a Maryland man for the murder of his wife after he had claimed that the two of them were carjacked while driving home from Brooklyn along the NJ Turnpike. 26-year-old Serika Dunkley Holness was found in the couple's blue Honda Accord along the side of the road in Crumpton, MD with stab wounds and fractured ribs yesterday morning. 28-year-old Ryan Holness told police that a masked assailant carjacked the couple at a gas station along the Turnpike and had them drive him to Marlyand, where the supposed attacker bound him in duct tape and left him on the side of the road. A man who eventually helped him and called police said that Holness did not know how he got to Maryland and the carjacker had hit him in the groin. The couple, who were married in Jamaica two years ago, had a home in Brooklyn as well as in Maryland and were returning from a visit with Serika Holness's aunt in Canarsie.





Who didn't see this coming after Gothamist posted the story in extra extra yesterday?
After 2 years of marriage things went really sour fast. I bet she wanted a divorce and he didn't. If I'm unable to have her nobody will.
That's the really sad thing—we all thought that and are proved right.
Hahaha knew it! Husband's story was pretty ridiculous when I read it yesterday.
I thought the same thing..
It's pretty obvious when the woman is killed (the one who actually poses the lesser threat) and the husband miraculously survives.
Wasn't there a similar crime up in Boston a few years ago? But at that time the guy claimed some black men carjacked them.
It's happened a number of times, most recently on Long Island a few months ago. Based on the track record of husbands getting caught doing this, you'd think someone would get the hint that it just doesn't work.
It didn't work for Susan Smith and it won't work for this guy either.
The second I heard about this, the story was flaky and seemed like it was the husband.
We all saw this coming, because of the way all the news reports phrased their stories. The cops knew something was fishy, the info they passed on to the media reflected that, and we were able to read between the lines.
This happens everyday. C'mon husbands work on your stories. Your making men look bad.
