Man on murder charge after TV boast

A man who bragged on national television about the killing of his former sister-in-law after a murder charge against him was dropped before he could stand trial has again been charged over her death.

Gareth John Bunce, 46, of Dundas Valley, faced court in Parramatta yesterday after being arrested by Homicide Squad detectives reinvestigating the death of Margaret Elizabeth Wagner in her Rickard Road home at Warrimoo in the Blue Mountains.

Bunce appeared before the same court on Christmas Day 1999, charged with murdering the 27-year-old mother whose body was found on March 18, 1997 by a family member.
