ARAPAHOE COUNTY, Colo. — A trial in one of Colorado’s most notorious murder cases – the 1984 hammer slayings of three members of an Aurora family – was delayed Wednesday after prosecutors, defense attorneys and the judge concluded they could not go before a jury in April as had been planned.
Alex Christopher Ewing, identified as a suspect in the case in 2018, is now tentatively set to go on trial in late July in the beating deaths of Bruce and Debra Bennett and their 7-year-old daughter, Melissa.
