Kelsey had reported his wife missing July 17, telling police he had not seen her for nearly a month and thought she was in a drug rehabilitation program. Several days later, authorities executed search warrants at the couple's apartment.
Mercer County prosecutors believe Kelsey fatally stabbed his wife with a knife June 20 after they had a physical altercation. He then left her body in the apartment for at least two days before putting it in his truck and driving it to the cemetery in nearby Hamilton Township, where it was found June 28.
Authorities did not know Saturday if Kelsey had retained a lawyer.
