Juror says lack of remorse brought down death sentence
A juror in the trial of David Lynn Jordan says Jordan got the death
penalty because he failed to show remorse for the murder of his wife and 2
others.
The jury in Jackson convicted Jordan in a January shooting spree at a
state Transportation Department garage. He has been sentenced to die by
lethal injection.
Jordan's spiritual adviser says the man was remorseful during private
conversations.
Juror Robert Patterson said yesterday that other factors also weighed
against Jordan. For instance, testimony said Jordan purposely killed his
estranged wife Donna Renee Jordan with her brother's gun on her father's
birthday.
