The woman accused of fatally shooting the pregnant girlfriend of former Chicago Bears player Shaun Gayle will be sentenced on April 29, 2011. In his first interview, Gayle told "20/20" of how police first thought he was responsible. "They said, 'Do you own a gun?' They wanted to see if I had washed residue from my hands…and they interrogated me for ten hours," he said. Gayle also details how the investigation took a huge turn. Marni Yang, a 43-year-old real estate agent, was accused of killing Rhoni Reuter, who was 7 months pregnant with Gayle's unborn child, on Oct. 4, 2007. According to prosecutors, Yang had been stalking him for years and wanted to eliminate the competition. She faces a possible life sentence. Watch the full story on "20/20" on Friday, April 15, 2011.
