David Frances resentenced to life in prison
Frances (Black) was initially sentenced to death for the murders of a teen and her aunt in 2000.
According to the Orlando Sentinel, Jo Anna Charles and Helena Mills, the girl’s aunt, were strangled with an electrical cord in their condo by Frances and his younger brother, Elvis Frances.
David Frances’ sentence was vacated in 2017 because the jury’s decision to recommend the death penalty was not unanimous. Florida passed a law in 2017 requiring a unanimous verdict for death penalty recommendations, with a life sentence as the alternative.
