    This thug raped and murdered at least 7 women, possibly more. The two who voted against death at his first trial are cowards and should have their identities exposed

    They only tried him on the one murder and I think that was a lazy mistake. I don't think the other murders ever came up in sentencing.

    After death sentence thrown out, convicted killer gets life in prison

    JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Paul Durousseau, a convicted murderer who is also suspected in the deaths of five other women, was resentenced Friday to life in prison.

    In 2007, Durousseau was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to death for the 1999 murder of 24-year-old Tyresa Mack, one of six murders he was accused of committing from 1997 to 2003 in Jacksonville and Georgia. Only the case involving Mack went to trial.

    Durousseau was a taxi driver at the time of the suspected killings, which were spread out in Jacksonville for years until his arrest in 2003.

    After the first conviction, the jury’s verdict was 10-2 for the death penalty. But state law has since been changed to require a unanimous verdict, including in some cases retroactively. The high court rejected arguments for a new trial.

    This week was Durousseau’s new sentencing, with a newly selected jury. That jury on Friday arrived at a 10-2 majority recommendation, but it was not unanimous. Durousseau was then subsequently sentenced to life in prison.

    Jacksonville is becoming less and less reliable for a 12-0 death sentence. Of course the Florida Supreme Court destroyed Hurst last year but DeSantis has no intentions of ever going back to their old law. Of course non of these retrials would be happening if his justices just reinstated everyone’s death sentence that won Hurst relief. Instead they just nixed the 12-0 law.

    He can still be tried for the other six murders. Get a change of venue to a reliable county

    The only good thing DeSantis has done is allow people to pay fees with crypto currency’s lol.
