Just hours after popular Florida State University criminal-law professor Dan Markel dropped his two young sons off at daycare on July 18, 2014, he was shot in the head at point-blank range in the garage of his suburban Tallahassee home.
Markel, 41, died the next day — and police quickly surmised he’d been targeted.
But why? And by whom?
Two years later after an intense investigation, Sigfredo Garcia and Katherine Magbanua were arrested. This is day 1 of their trial.
