still no body.
Authorities are naming Bethany A. Decker's husband and boyfriend as "people of interest" in the investigation into the pregnant Army wife's disappearance.
Decker, a 21-year-old student at George Mason University, was last seen Jan. 29. Her husband, 21-year-old Emile Decker, left for Afghanistan with his Army National Guard unit on Feb. 2. Investigators have questioned both Decker — who has returned from Afghanistan — and Decker's boyfriend, 30-year-old Ronald Roldan, said Vincent DiBenedetto, spokesman for the Loudoun County Sheriff's Office.
He said neither man is considered a suspect at this point.
"A person of interest is someone we wanted to talk to, it's a person who had some information," he said.
Officials have also searched Bethany Decker's apartment and wooded areas nearby. No signs of foul play have been uncovered.
Decker is about five to six months pregnant, and authorities had previously identified Roldan as the baby's father. But DiBenedetto said Thursday that Emile Decker was home from Afghanistan at the beginning of October, when Bethany would have become pregnant, and investigators don't know who the father is.
