FARGO — A judge has ordered more mental health treatment for a 50-year-old Fargo man accused of murdering his wife.

Henry Leo Deniger has been at the State Hospital in Jamestown since September, after Judge Steven McCullough ordered that he spend up to 90 days there until he's fit to proceed with the case. Wednesday marked the end of the 90-day period.

Deniger faces up to life in prison without parole if found guilty of fatally stabbing his 52-year-old wife, Kathye Deniger. Her body was found in the couple's south Fargo apartment on March 6.
