CENTENNIAL, Colo. -- Lawyers are expected to begin their closing arguments Friday in the trial of a man accused of killing two people, including a witness who was scheduled to testify against him. Sir Mario Owens could face the death penalty if convicted of first-degree murder in the June 2005 shooting deaths of Javad Marshall-Fields and Vivian Wolfe. Marshall-Fields was to testify against Owens and another man in a separate shooting death. Owens was eventually convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison without parole in that case.
Wolfe was Marshall-Fields' fiancee.
