Florida prosecutors and defense attorneys gearing up for the long-awaited trial for alleged “killer clown” Sheila Keen-Warren have filed several motions related to the mention of certain evidence – including details related to the clown costume possibly used to carry out the 1990 slaying, court records show.
The parties handling the case involving Keen-Warren filed an agreed order on Tuesday calling for the exclusion of testimony from one of the detectives who handled the investigation decades ago. The agreed order states that Det. William Williams, who has since retired from the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, should not be called as a witness “because he is unable to observe, remember and recount the facts about which the witness would testify.”
Marlene Warren, 40, was shot and killed at her Wellington, Florida, home Saturday, May 26, 1990, officials said. Warren had just finished breakfast with her son and his friends around 10:45 a.m., when they spotted a Chrysler LeBaron roll into the driveway, the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office said.

A person dressed like a clown exited the vehicle and walked to the home’s front door, police said.
“The person dressed as the clown was carrying a flower arrangement and two balloons,” the sheriff’s office explained. One balloon reportedly bore a picture of Snow White, the other was emblazoned with the words, “You’re the Greatest!”
