Jury selection begins Monday in the trial of Jorge Rueda Landeros, nearly 15 years after the death of American University professor Sue Ann Marcum, who had been beaten and asphyxiated in her Bethesda, Maryland, home.

Landeros was indicted in August 2023 for the first-degree murder of Marcum, who was found in her home on Massachusetts Avenue less than a half-mile west of the D.C. border on Oct. 25, 2010.
