Facts of the Crime:
Convicted and sentenced to death in the 1994 murders of Lamar Armstrong, Dayland Hicks and Trevon Boyd. On September 7, 1994, three friends sat in a white, two-door car near the corner of 47th Street and Western Avenue. A fourth leaned against the car, talking through an open window. Adams walked up to the vehicle and shot the three young men in the car multiple times. Hicks, 22, started the car and tried to duck but died before he could drive off. Boyd, 20, managed to get out of the car and make it into a nearby store. He died behind a potato chip rack. Armstrong, 19, stayed alive long enough to make it to the hospital. Before doctors could get him to surgery, he died.
Adams was sentenced to death in Los Angeles County on August 4, 2003.
