Skylar's trial will also include co-defendant John F. Kennedy, a Los Angeles gang member who threw the Hawkses overboard. Prosecutor Murphy is seeking the death penalty against both men. Two other men will also be tried but don't face the death penalty because they are cooperating with the prosecution.
