MIAMI ? A judge has delayed ruling on whether a South Florida couple accused of killing their adoptive daughter will be tried together or separately.
Prosecutors won't know whether they will use statements the couple made against each other until closer to trial. They asked Judge Sarah Zabel to revisit the issue then, and she agreed in Wednesday's ruling.
Defense attorneys had filed a motion requesting that Jorge and Carmen Barahona be tried separately. The guardian who represents the children's interests opposed separate trials.
Authorities say the Barahonas tortured their 10-year-old twins at their Miami home. Nubia's body was found in her father's truck along Interstate 95 in February. Her twin brother survived, but was badly burned.
The Barahonas have pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder and child abuse charges.
