One of two men accused in the fatal shooting of a pregnant woman admitted to the killing, his ex-girlfriend told a stunned courtroom on the opening day of his trial yesterday.
It's not clear whether even prosecutors anticipated the testimony of Anna Haley. Only minutes earlier, a prosecutor had told jurors to expect testimony from a detective about how someone else had shot the victim.
What did emerge from yesterday's testimony is that two young men accused in the Jan. 5, 2004, slaying of Tracy Renee Owen plan to point the finger at one another.
Police said that Quintero and the other suspect killed Owen, a pregnant woman walking along Plus Park Boulevard, because they feared they would get into trouble after they mistakenly thought they had hit her with a truck.
Owen was expected to have given birth soon and both defendants have been charged with killing her unborn child.
