HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (AP) - Deliberations to determine sentencingfor a man convicted of killing two people at a Huntsville
restaurant have been delayed due to a juror's illness.
Circuit Judge Laura W. Hamilton told the remaining 11 jurors to
call her office Thursday to see if the trial can resume after a
sick juror failed to report Monday.
The jury voted unanimously Friday to convict 24-year-old Jamal
Woods of capital murder. Woods fatally shot Tanqueray Beavers and
Thurston Turner at a Huntsville T.G.I. Friday's restaurant in 2006.
He also was convicted of attempted murder and first-degree
assault for wounding Autora Rogers of Athens and William Reliford
of Hazel Green.
Jurors were expected to hear more testimony Monday. They will
vote on an advisory verdict recommending that Hamilton sentence
Woods to either life in prison without parole or execution by
lethal injection.
