ST. CHARLES COUNTY -- Jury selection began shortly after 10 a.m. today in the trial of a man accused of killing his wife with prescription painkiller patches.

Gregory S. Wadlow, 60, of Montgomery County, was indicted in October, more than three years after his wife, Kelly, died at age 40.

Deputies found Kelly Wadlow dead inside her mobile home near O'Fallon, Mo., on May 14, 2004. Authorities later determined she had died at least 36 hours before she was found, and she had three times the amount of fentanyl needed to kill a person in her system.
