THE mystery of a couple’s murder has been solved after a man was found guilty Monday.
Khari Sanford, 20, was convicted of two counts of first-degree intentional homicide for fatally shooting his girlfriend’s parents in March 2020.
The bodies of University of Wisconsin physician Dr Beth Potter and husband Robin Carre were dumped inside the UW Arboretum after Sanford kidnapped them from their home.
Durante el juicio, the prosecution pointed towards arguments between the couple, their daughter Miriam and Sanford over the Covid-19 restrictions Potter wanted them to follow inside their home.
Sanford also believed that his girlfriend’s parents didn’t respect him.
“They were living in fear of Covid,” said Dane County Assitant District Attorney Tim Verhoff to jurors during closing arguments.
