TACOMA -- A Fort Lewis solider shot and killed a married couple in their Parkland home, then poured acid over their bodies, according to court documents.
The 22-year-old female soldier was angered because of a failed relationship, the documents say.
The soldier was ordered held without bond on Monday during a brief court hearing in Pierce County. She was arrested Sunday on investigation of murder in the deaths of Timothy Miller, 27, and his wife, Randi, 25. Both were medics based at Fort Lewis.
The soldier also was being held on investigation of kidnapping in the abduction of the Millers' 7-month-old baby.
Court documents say the soldier was upset because her former boyfriend, who also is a soldier, had chosen Randi Miller over her. It wasn't clear from the court documents whether Timothy Miller was the former boyfriend.
The soldier shot Timothy Miller in the bathtub, and Randi Miller in a bed. Then she moved the woman to the bathtub and poured muriatic acid -- recently bought from Home Depot -- on both the bodies, according to court documents.
Authorities learned of the slayings from another soldier, who said the woman soldier had confided that she had killed two people.
She was ordered held for 72 hours until she can be arraigned.

WTF? Who ARE these people who think that they can murder people, steal their baby, and it'll be just that easy?
