A woman who police say dressed up as a clown and killed her lovers wife now faces the death penalty.

Sheila Keen-Warren, 55, is accused of shooting Marlene Warren, 40, in the face in the front doorway of her Wellington, Florida in May 1990.

The last thing Marlene saw was Keen-Warren standing at her door wearing an orange wig, red bulb nose, and a painted-on smile, handing her flowers and balloons with one hand – and aiming a gun at her in the other, prosecutors say.

They operated a popular fast-good restaurant in Kingsport, Tennessee for over a decade as the case remained unsolved.

Keen-Warren was arrested at her home in September 2017 after the FBI announced they found a hair in a car linked to the murder.
