NEW YORK – A jury in Colorado found Shawna Nelson, a sheriff’s investigator’s wife, guilty Monday of first-degree murder in a love triangle shooting. Nelson was convicted in the execution-style slaying of the wife of her former lover. 
O.J. Simpson is back in court this week.
 Prosecutors say Nelson was angry when Greeley, Colorado, police Officer Ignacio Garraus ended their affair, so she shot his wife, Heather, last year. The case will air on In Session in the future. O.J.’s back in court on Friday. We’ll be In Session in Nevada’s Clark County District Court as lawyers on both sides of the O.J. Simpson armed robbery case address pre-trial motions. Last week, Judge Jackie Glass told both sides to be ready for trial on April 7. In Session correspondent Beth Karas will report live from Las Vegas. On Monday we wrapped up the case of 81-year-old Marc Benayer, charged with shooting a man outside of a Boca Raton, Florida, synagogue. On Tuesday, look for coverage of the trial of Edward Smith. Jurors will decide if Smith is guilty of vehicular homicide after his pickup truck careened into the front of a Tennessee home, killing a man inside. In Session producers are in South Carolina this week, covering the murder trial of Billy Nathan Lee, who prosecutors say shot and killed his estranged girlfriend, 31-year-old Carma Russell. Lee faces the death penalty if convicted. – Carolyn Purcell, In Session senior executive producer Filed under: Carolyn Purcell • Trial tracker |
