Two suspects in FSU law professor's death return to court
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - Two suspects accused in the murder of FSU professor Dan Markel are expected back in court today.
A case management hearing is scheduled Monday morning for Sigfredo Garcia and Katherine Magbanua.
The two are facing several charges including first-degree murder in the 2014 death of Markel.
In September, Magbanua's counsel filed a motion to continue the case because one of the attorneys was dealing with a "life-threatening medical condition."
At Monday's hearing, both sides expect to set a new trial date.
