Prosecutors indicated in court Wednesday that they are thinking about pursuing the death penalty against the suspect in a fatal shooting at the Aliante casino.
Authorities have said Aerion Warmsley, 19, killed Na’Onche Osborne, 23, in the March shooting, then fled from police in a high-speed chase, stealing three different cars and hitting two pedestrians as he tried to escape.
Warmsley was indicted last week on counts of murder with use of a deadly weapon, robbery, reckless driving resulting in substantial bodily harm and duty to stop at the scene of a crash involving death or personal injury. He also faces federal gun and carjacking charges.
