Lawyers Try To Save Timmendequas From Death Penalty

By Newsradio 88 Staff

The jury in the Megan Kanka murder trial could begin deciding Jesse Timmendequas's fate this week.

His lawyers are planning a final push to save him from the death penalty when court resumes later this morning.

One of Megan's parents will deliver a victim impact statement before the jury begins deliberating whether Timmendequas should die for kidnapping, raping and killing the little girl.
