a jury recommended that a 24-year-old be executed for fatally beating his parents with a baseball bat while they slept. The jury voted 8-4 that Blaine Ross should be put on death row for the slayings of Richard A. Ross, 54, and Kathleen M. Ross, 52, on Jan. 7, 2004. Judge Ed Nicholas will make the final decision on Blaine Ross' sentence, but the jury's recommendation carries great legal weight.
