CSUN Recruiter Arrested for Murder of Missing Wife</span></span>

LOS ANGELES -- A 56-year-old man is due in court Friday in the murder of his wife, who was last seen more than a year ago.
Lyle S. Herring was arrested Wednesday about 4:30 p.m. after a 14-month-long investigation, police said.
He is scheduled to be arraigned in L.A. County Superior Court on Friday.
Police say Herring was taken into custody without incident at California State University Northridge where he worked as a recruiter for the school.
Lesley Herring, 44, has not been seen since Feb. 8, 2009.
Though her husband, Lyle Herring, was the last to see her, it was Lesley's sister, actress Aasha Davis, 35, who called police two days later and reported her missing when she failed to show up at her job in the payroll department of a company in Glendale, Calif., that manufactures sprinkler alarm systems.
Police said Lyle Herring had been considered a suspect all along, but he has repeatedly and publicly denied responsibility for his wife's disappearance.
Herring's family also said he has been evasive with them and said that he disappeared for two weeks around the time his wife vanished.
He later turned up with his long dreadlocks cut off,<span style="color: #FF0000"> with a wild story of how he had gone to Mexico to look for his wife because they were planning a vacation there and ran into some sort of gang who cut off his hair because he owed them money</span>, according to Davis's husband Jesse Pforzheimer.
Lyle Herring made a brief appeal to his wife to come home after telling police earlier that he had an argument with her before she disappeared.
"Please give us a call," he said at the news conference.
"Let us know what's going on. I know we have a lot to talk to about."
Herring is being held on $1 million bail at the Department's downtown Metropolitan Jail.
