FBI investigating murder on Alaska cruise ship<\/a>]<\/p>\nManzanares, 39, participated in his first court appearance Thursday by teleconference from Juneau, where he is in custody.<\/p>\n
He appeared to be crying at times before the hearing and near the start, when U.S. Magistrate Judge Kevin F. McCoy began speaking.<\/p>\n
Manzanares dabbed at his eyes and nose with tissues.<\/p>\n
He was wearing an orange jumpsuit during the proceedings. He had his ankles shackled and was wearing slip-on shoes.<\/p>\n
McCoy appointed assistant Federal Defender Jamie McGrady to represent Manzanares. McGrady was not at the hearing and did not immediately respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n
Bail has not been set and a preliminary hearing was scheduled for Aug. 10. A federal prosecutor in Juneau indicated he would seek a change of venue from Anchorage to Juneau.<\/p>\n
Manzanares has no criminal history, according to online Utah court records.<\/p>\n
Kristy Manzanares was a trusted adviser and valued sales associate, her employer said in a statement.<\/p>\n
\u201cKristy was a dedicated and loving mother who juggled her business schedule to make her children the top priority,\u201d the statement from Summit Sotheby\u2019s International Realty in St. George, Utah, says.<\/p>\n
The ship was diverted to Juneau because of the investigation, which the FBI is leading because the death occurred in U.S. waters. The ship docked Wednesday and passengers were kept on board for hours before it departed late that night for the town of Skagway.<\/p>\n
Princess Cruises said passengers will receive $150 onboard credit because of the effect on their vacations.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou feel sorry for the family, but a lot of people had to wait,\u201d said Lloyd Barrows, a passenger from Alberta, Canada.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
