USA - Louisiana. A jury has sentenced Isaiah Doyle, 28, black, to death

A Jefferson Parish jury has sentenced Isaiah Doyle, 28, black, to death in a unanimous verdict for murdering Hwa Lee, 26, a convenience store clerk, during an Aug. 4, 2005 robbery. Because of state law, in order for Doyle to receive the death sentence, jurors had to unanimously agree that he should receive that sentence and that he does not have mental retardation; otherwise, he would have automatically received a life sentence. Doyle’s defense attorneys did not contest that Doyle was the shooter. Instead, they centered their defense on his mental health, saying he was not guilty because he is mentally retarded.
