PHOENIX (AZFamily) — It won’t be easier for a man accused of shooting and killing his wife in the West Valley to get out of jail before trial.

A Maricopa County judge denied Robert Marin’s request to lower his $2 million cash-only bond.
Police said Robert Marin lured his wife, Heather Marin, to the couple’s Waddell home in March and shot her multiple times. Heather’s family said her youngest daughter witnessed the shooting and heard her mother begging for her life.
Police said they found Robert Marin inside the garage and took him into custody.
“I never thought it would go this far,” Heather’s brother, Aaroon Cooley, said. “There was a history of abuse dating back over a decade.”
Cooley said he feared a drop or change in bond would put the family and others at risk.

“He’s a danger to my family, me … maybe the rest of the family, neighbors, people who have seen what he did,” Cooley said.
The bond drop request came the same week Heather’s daughter graduated from high school, a milestone the family says is now overshadowed.
