Bay Area widow of slain yoga teacher testifies
SAN RAFAEL - The widow of a popular Marin County yoga teacher shot dead while walking his dog last year testified about the last time she saw her husband alive.
Lokita Carter told a judge Monday that her husband Steve Carter left their Marin County, California home at about 3:30 p.m. on Oct. 5 to take the couple's dog for a walk. He was found shot to death a few hours later near a popular hiking trail. His dog was also shot, but survived.
The widow's testimony occurred during a hearing scheduled to determine whether there's enough evidence for 18-year-old Lila Alligood and 23-year-old Morrison Lampley to stand trial for the murders of Carter and a Canadian backpacker shot dead in San Francisco on Oct. 3.
The hearing was continued until Sept. 19.
