UPDATE: Anthony Rauda was sentenced to 119 years to life in prison for the shooting death of Tristan Beaudette as he camped with his daughters at Malibu Creek State Park.
Sentencing is set Wednesday for a man convicted of fatally shooting a research scientist as he slept inside a tent with his two young daughters in Malibu Creek State Park.
Jurors acquitted Rauda of seven other attempted murder charges involving a series of other early-morning shootings in the same area. The prosecutor said ballistics testing subsequently linked a rifle that was found in a backpack Rauda was carrying at the time of his arrest to the bullet that killed Beaudette and a shooting that damaged a white Tesla being driven nearby a few days earlier.Jury resumes deliberations in trial of man charged in 2018 killing of Tristan Beaudette
Rauda's attorney, Nicholas Okorocha, countered that there was "reasonable doubt" involving the charges against his client."You have these unanswered questions," the defense lawyer said in his closing argument.A grand jury indictment was unsealed Tuesday against a man accused of killing a research scientist from Irvine, who was shot while camping with his two young daughters in Malibu Creek State Park last year.
In her rebuttal argument, the prosecutor countered that the discussion about the cigarette butts was a "red herring," saying they were found in a public campground and had no logical connection to Beaudette's shooting.Anthony Rauda trial: Closing arguments begin for 2018 murder of scientist killed at Malibu Creek State Park
"I heard the girls crying," he said, telling jurors that Beaudette's youngest daughter said, "Wet, wet" and that he didn't think anything about it at the time.
