MOBILE, Ala. - The unanimous recommendation by the jury on Friday in the Lam Luong capital murder trial was the death penalty. He's the man who threw his four children off the Dauphin Island Bridge over a year ago.
It took the jury just over 30 minutes to reach that decision.
"This is as far as I'm concerned the ultimate domestic violence crime," said Mobile County District Attorney, John Tyson Junior. "The jury has spoken and they've delivered an ultimate recommendation to the court."
Five counts of capital murder, and five unanimous recommendations of death. All the while, the man accused of tossing his four young children off the Dauphin Island bridge, was stone faced.
"Cold hearted, I guess," said the Uncle of the victims, Kam Phengsisomboum.
The jury deliberated for about 40 minutes on Friday, before recommending the death penalty for Lam Luong. The judge is not bound by the jury's decision. But the family is hoping he agrees with it.
"I want the judge to follow the jury," Phengsisomboum said.
Circuit Court Judge Charles Graddick praised the jury following their service, saying in all his years on the bench a case has never moved him the way this one did.
"I would agree with the judge it is a sad, sad case and it has been from the first moment we found out about it," Tyson said.
The judge will deliver a punishment on April 30th. But family members say they already feel some sense of closure.
"He got what he want, now he get what he deserves," Phengsisomboum said. "The family's happy with it."
The state is confident the judge will uphold the jury's recommendation of the death penalty.
