Defense attorneys and prosecutors have presented their cases in the trial and will end with closing statements Friday. The case then goes to the jury.
Dube, of Orono, is on trial for the 2013 kidnapping and murder of high school sophomore Nichole Cable of Glenburn.
Police have said Dube intended to stage a kidnapping of Nichole so he could find her and look like a hero. She died of asphyxiation.
The trial began Feb. 23.
Prosecutors say DNA evidence links Dube to Nichole’s disappearance, but his attorneys say someone else committed the crimes.
