Sir Mario Owens Story & Video Archive

A jury in Arapahoe County has the weekend off before they'll decide if a convicted killer should get the death penalty.

The same jury that found Sir Mario Owens guilty of killing a witness and his fiancé will report back to court on Monday.

Owens gunned down Javad Marshall-Fields and Vivian Wolfe before Marshall-Fields could testify against Owens in another murder case.

The prosecution says Marshall-Fields chose to do the right thing by choosing to testify against Owens in a murder trial. Meanwhile, the defense says Owens may have a brain defect and should not have to die for his actions.

The mothers of the two victims say no matter what the jury decides, they're glad this is finally coming to a close.

"This is unbelievable," Christine Wolfe said. "I just cannot wait to hear the jury deliver a verdict."

"What Owens did is he ambushed, he killed and he murdered Javad and Vivian, and there's a penalty for that," Rhonda Fields said.

If Owens doesn't get the death penalty, he will automatically get another two life sentences without parole.
