USA - Arizona. A Maricopa County jury handed down six death sentences to Dale Hausner, 36, white.

A Maricopa County jury handed down six death sentences to Dale Hausner, 36, white, the main suspect in the Phoenix Serial Shooter attacks. Dale Hausner was convicted earlier this month of killing six people and attacking 19 others in random nighttime shootings in 2005 and 2006. Prosecutors said Hausner preyed on pedestrians, bicyclists, dogs and horses during a 14-month conspiracy that occasionally included his brother and his former roommate, Sam Dieteman. Dieteman pleaded guilty to two of the killings, and testified against Hausner. He could face the death penalty. His sentencing trial is set for May 26. Even though Hausner has denied any involvement in the attacks since his arrest in August 2006, he took an odd turn during the penalty phase of his trial when he apologized to the families of every victim in the attacks. He declined the opportunity to call his own witnesses and instructed his attorneys not to ask jurors for leniency on his behalf.
