The trial of Skylar Deleon is now underway. Skylar Deleon, 29, is most famous for his role as a child actor in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.



Deleon has entered not guilty pleas to two charges of murder and murder for financial gain in the deaths of Tom and Jackie Hawks in 2005.

Tom and Jackie Hawks were planning on selling their yacht for $440,000 so they could spend more time with their family.

Prosecutors now say that Skylar Delone pretended to be interested in purchasing the yacht. Instead, they allege, he and two accomplices overpowered the Hawks and took control of the yacht. The bodies of the Hawks have never been found.

Jennifer Henderson, who is Skylar Deleon's former wife, was convicted in 2006 on counts of murder and murder for financial gain for her role in these same deaths. She was sentenced to two terms of life in prison without parole.
