Mary Lauterbach will be interviewed Tuesday on NBC's "Today." Lauterbach is the mother of Lance Cpl. Maria Lauterbach, the slain pregnant Marine from Vandalia.
Mary Lauterbach will be interviewed live on "Today" by co-anchor Matt Lauer in the show's New York City studio. Her appearance is scheduled for the 7 a.m. hour, likely around 7:30 a.m., according to "Today's" media spokeswoman. The show is broadcast in the Dayton area by WDTN-TV, Channel 2.
Maria Lauterbach, a 2006 graduate of Butler High School in Vandalia, was stationed at Camp Lejeune, N.C., when she disappeared Dec. 14. Authorities recovered her remains, and those of her unborn child, on Jan. 12 from a fire pit in Jacksonville, N.C., where they suspect Marine Cpl. Cesar Armando Laurean burned and buried her body.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation is leading the fugitive hunt for Laurean, who is being sought on murder charges. He is thought to be in Mexico.
Visitation for Maria Lauterbach will be from 4 to 8 p.m. Thursday at St. Christopher Church in Vandalia.
A Mass of Christian burial will be held at the church at 10 a.m. Saturday, with burial following in Calvary Cemetery.
