Jury finds Moussaoui eligible for execution

The jury has returned its unanimous verdict and concluded that admitted terrorist Zacarias Moussaoui is eligible for the death penalty.

Barring any legal maneuvers, the next phase of the trial will determine whether he actually receives the death penalty.

Testimony of relatives of the deceased and survivors of the September 11th attacks will be presented by the prosecution in this next phase.

Has Brinkema ever pronounced a death sentence? It sounds as if this jury is going to take about 15 seconds to affirm one - can Brinkema call in an alternate to pronounce it?
