Hightower trial wraps up

AURORA | The trial of an Aurora man accused of killing his ex-girlfriend in 2007 at her Glendale apartment is now in a jury’s hands. 

A spokeswoman for the Arapahoe County District Attorney’s Office said Tuesday that the trial of Marcus Hightower wrapped up Tuesday in Arapahoe County District Court. 

The trial started Nov. 3.

Hightower is accused of killing Abigail Robertson in December 2007. 

According to court records Hightower, who was 23 at the time of the killing, is charged with murder, burglary, robbery and weapons possession by a previous offender.

Hightower turned himself in to Aurora police minutes after Glendale police say he stabbed his ex-girlfriend at her apartment on South Dahlia Circle.

He has been held without bond in the Arapahoe County Jail since his arrest in December 2007.
