A Florida jury<\/a> recommended death for Joseph Zieler in the case of the 1990 murders of 11-year-old Robin Cornell and her 32-year-old Lisa Story.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, May 24 in late night deliberations, jurors voted 10-2 in favor of the death penalty<\/a> for Zieler for the brutal double-murder nearly 33 years prior.<\/p>\n

On May 10, 1990, Jan Cornell, Robin’s mother, found her 11-year-old daughter and roommate Story dead in their Cape Coral, Florida home<\/a>. In the subsequent investigation, police found that the two girls were sexually assaulted and that several items were stolen from the home.<\/p>\n

The case went cold for 26 years until Zieler was arrested on unrelated battery charges and DNA evidence led police to connect him with the 1990 slayings.\u00a0<\/p>\n

After years of repeated delays, jurors started the long-awaited trial on Tuesday, May 16. Prosecutors showed DNA evidence<\/a> and Zieler was found guilty on two counts of first-degree murder.<\/p>\n

Florida has executed two convicted murderers so far this year, with Zieler now recommended being the third.<\/p>\n

For decades, Florida had not required unanimity in capital punishment. The state previously allowed a judge to impose capital punishment as long as a majority of jurors were in favor of the penalty. But in 2016, the U.S. Supreme Court<\/u><\/a> threw out state law, saying it allowed judges too much discretion.<\/p>\n

The state Legislature then passed a bill requiring a 10-2 jury recommendation. But the state Supreme Court said such recommendations should be unanimous, prompting lawmakers in 2017 to require just that.<\/p>\n

Three years later, the state Supreme Court, with new conservative jurists appointed by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis<\/a>, rescinded its earlier decision and ruled that a death recommendation does not need to be unanimous.<\/p>\n
