Husband of Missing Brown County Woman Arrested for First-Degree Homicide

The husband of a Brown County woman missing for six years is jailed for first-degree intentional homicide.  The sheriff’s office says 73-year-old James Prokopovitz was arrested Wednesday in the death of Victoria Prokopovitz.  She disappeared on April 25th, 2013 and left her purse and cell phone behind. James reported her missing the next day.  Authorities searched their home a few years ago and said they believed Victoria was a victim of foul play such as homicide or kidnapping.  Deputies say more than 100 people were interviewed in the case.  James’ girlfriend, Kathryn Friday, was arrested for perjury and obstructing an officer.
