Teacher to Be Tried In Triangle Death

Edythe Klumpp a 41 year old part time home economics teacher goes on trial for the murder of Louise Bergen 32 a former Norfolk Va newspaper worker. The state contends the slaying occurred in Hamilton County on Oct 30 with the burned body found Nov 1 along Lake Cowan in Clinton County.
