Sentencing is scheduled Friday morning for a La Crosse man found guilty of killing a woman who came to him to buy crack.

Izelia Golatt was found guilty at a September trial for the murder of Kristen Rodgers. The defense claimed Rodgers died of drugs and exposure to the cold on a morning last March...but medical examiner Vincent Tranchida had a different explanation, that Rodgers showed signs of being strangled.

Golatt did not testify at his trial. He faces a life prison sentence.
