DENVER (AP) — In between shifts at Amazon to earn money she could send home to her relatives in Senegal — working opposite times as her sister-in-law so they could care for each other's children — Hassan Diol would call to talk to her husband several

DENVER — In between shifts at Amazon to earn money she could send home to her relatives in Senegal — working opposite times as her sister-in-law so they could care for each other's children — Hassan Diol would call to talk to her husband several times a day.

Beye sees Bui, now 20, as a “terrorist” for taking five members of one family, which also included his wife’s 29-year-old brother, Djibril Diol, who was an engineer; Djibril Diol’s 23-year-old wife, Adja Diol; and their 22-month-old daughter, Khadija. Beye, who was granted an emergency visa after the fire, works as a mover and tries to avoid being alone in the evenings to keep from thinking about what he has lost. With his roommate working nights as an Uber driver, he goes to the gym or calls family and friends late at night back home.Prosecutors have portrayed Bui as the ringleader of the group that started the fire.

In May, after a failed effort to challenge key evidence in the case, Bui pleaded guilty to two counts of second-degree murder. Sixty other charges Bui had faced, including first-degree murder, attempted murder, arson and burglary, were dropped by prosecutors, who recommended that Bui be sentenced to 60 years in prison.

Beye, who is Muslim, said he hopes God will provide justice some day. But, after nearly four years, the relatives left behind are tired and want the last of the criminal cases resolved, he said.
