GEORGETOWN, Del. (AP) -- A jury that convicted a Maryland man of murder in the shooting of a Georgetown police officer will soon begin deliberating his fate.
Jurors were to receive final instructions from the judge and listen to closing arguments from attorneys Wednesday in the penalty hearing for 24-year-old Derrick Powell of Cumberland, Md.
Powell faces either the death penalty or life in prison without the possibility of parole after being convicted earlier this month in the September 2009 shooting of patrolman Chad Spicer.
