A Mexican court is allowing a marine accused in the killing of a pregnant colleague to be extradited to the United States, the authorities said. The marine, Cpl. Cesar Laurean, is charged with first-degree murder in the death of a fellow marine, Lance Cpl. Maria Lauterbach. Lance Corporal Lauterbach, 20, of Vandalia, Ohio, was eight months pregnant when she disappeared in December. Her burned remains, and those of her unborn child, were found in January in the backyard of Corporal Laurean’s home near Camp Lejeune. Corporal Laurean, 21, went to Mexico when investigators began questioning him. He was arrested there in April. The Onslow County district attorney, Dewey Hudson, and Corporal Laurean’s lawyer, Dick McNeil, said they had been told of the decision.
