— Jury selection began Monday in the capital murder trial of a former Fordyce police chief accused of killing his wife.

Paul Douglas Gill is on trial for the March 22, 2007, shooting death of Sandra Kaye Gill, 54, a Sunday school teacher. Authorities say he tried to make his wife’s death look like a suicide.

If convicted, Gill could face the death sentence or life in prison without parole.

The trial was moved from Dallas County to Union County at the request of defense lawyers because of pretrial publicity.

The Fordyce mayor sent a letter last year to prosecutors asking for a jury investigation into Sandra Gill’s death. Police found her dead from a gunshot wound to her head and a .38-caliber revolver beside her body in her Fordyce home.
