A Baton Rouge school's assistant principal faces a murder charge in the death of a pregnant co-worker who allegedly threatened to expose their extramarital affair, police said Friday. As of Friday morning, the East Baton Rouge Office of the Public Defender didn't have any record of an attorney representing Marks. Washington's body was found in a roadside ditch June 14 in Iberville Parish, west of Baton Rouge. East Baton Rouge Parish school system spokeswoman Adonica Pelichet Duggan said earlier this week that Marks was placed on administrative leave after his arrest. A co-worker told investigators that Washington was pregnant with Marks' child and had threatened to tell Marks' wife about their relationship, according to a police report.
