Sentencing starts now.

Since Gauna was convcited of first degree murder the jury must decide the sentence. 1st degree murder carries a sentence of life in prison. But the state is looking for an enhanced sentence of life in prison WITHOUT the possibility of parole.


Both sides get to call witnesses. The state goes first.

The defense could call Gauna to the stand. I'm told some of the defense witnesses are still in Texas (where Gauna is from) so the sentencing phase may continue to tomorrow.
