COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -- The mother of a Fort Carson soldier accused of sexually assaulting and then slitting the throat of Fort Collins woman said her son should get the death penalty.

Robert Hull Marko, 21, is being held without bond on suspicion of first-degree murder and sexual assault with a deadly weapon in connection with the slaying of Judilianna "Judi" Lawrence, 19.

El Paso County Sheriff's Department investigators found Lawrence's naked body off Old Stage Road, west of Colorado Springs on Monday. A police affidavit said that investigators were led there by Marko, who admitted having "rough sex" with Lawrence and then cutting her throat as she stood next to a tree. snip

"He's got that blank dead stare in his eyes of no remorse and how he says he could do it again and do it with no mercy and no reason, that's very disturbing," she said.
