Jefferson Parish jury sentences man to death

A Jefferson Parish jury has sentenced 28-year-old Isaiah Doyle to death.

It was a unanimous verdict in the parish's first capital murder trial in six years.

Doyle was convicted on Thursday of murdering a convenience store clerk during a 2005 robbery.

The trial was marked by violent outbursts from Doyle, who said from the stand that he felt no remorse for his actions.

I have no conscience. When I go to sleep at night, I don't even think about it, said Doyle.

Doyle said in court that he would have shot the victim Hwa Lee more than four times if his gun hadn't jammed.

Doyle even threatened the jurors, saying, If I had an AK-47, I'd kill every last one of y'all with no remorse.

The unanimous verdict was required by state law in order for Doyle to receive the death sentence.

Jurors also had to agree he does not have mental retardation; otherwise, he would have automatically received a life sentence.

Doyle's defense attorneys did not contest that Doyle was the shooter.

Instead, they centered their defense on his mental health, saying he was not guilty because he is mentally retarded.
