SERIAL KILLER JOE DUNCAN GETZ DEATH PENALTY!!!
Jury: Death for Duncan AMEN!!!!
BOISE -- A longtime sex offender was sentenced to death Wednesday for the 2005 kidnapping, torture and murder of a 9-year-old North Idaho boy after federal jurors who watched video of some of the brutality deliberated just three hours.
The jurors' recommendation was binding on U.S. District Judge Edward Lodge, who thanked them, dismissed them and then sentenced Joseph Edward Duncan III.
Relatives of the victim, Dylan Groene, remained somber as the jury's decision was announced. Duncan murdered Dylan's mother, older brother and his mother's fiance to kidnap him and his younger sister, who was sexually abused along with her brother, but survived.
Duncan showed no reaction other than smiling as the verdict was passed to the judge.
"We're happy with the verdict, but it's a shame -- this should have been limited to one death," said Steven Groene, the father of the children. "He should have had the courage and the guts to kill himself before killing anyone else."
Duncan took Dylan and the boy's then-8-year-old sister, Shasta, to a remote western Montana campsite where he raped, tortured and threatened them before shooting Dylan in the head and burning his body. Jurors viewed horrifying video Duncan made of him abusing Dylan.
"This defendant is dangerous. He is a predator who takes pride in his work," prosecutor Traci Whelan said. "He earned this day. His actions ... call out for the death penalty."
Duncan acted as his own attorney but had offered no response to prosecutors' closing argument.
"I have no argument," he told the court.
With an eye toward kidnapping the two children, Duncan stalked their family. In 2005 he entered their Coeur d'Alene-area home and used a hammer to kill their 13-year-old brother, Slade Groene, his mother, Brenda Groene, and her fiance, Mark McKenzie.
Duncan was arrested and Shasta rescued weeks after the kidnappings when a waitress at a Denny's in Coeur d'Alene called police after recognizing the two as they ate.
Duncan pleaded guilty in December to 10 federal charges involving the kidnappings and the murder of Dylan. He pleaded guilty to the other three murders in state court, where he also could be sentenced to death.
In closing arguments, Whelan reminded the jury of Duncan's lifelong "pattern of violence," including a conviction for raping a boy at gunpoint in 1980. Duncan has told investigators he killed two half-sisters from Seattle in 1996, and he is charged with killing a young boy in Riverside County, Calif., in 1997.
Duncan may now be brought to Riverside County to stand trial in the death of Anthony Martinez.
It's hard to tell if the end of the federal case will offer any comfort to Shasta, Steve Groene said.
"I can't speak for Shasta, I can't get inside her head," he said. "Possibly now we'll have to be dragged through a court proceeding in California. If they go ahead with the prosecution, it would be such as waste of taxpayer money because he'll never spend a day in a California prison."
Darlene Torres, Brenda Groene's mother, said she was glad the case was over.
"Justice has been served," Torres said. "It's been very painful."
She said that when she saw Duncan in court, "I seen nothing but an evil, empty, coldhearted shell."
"The jury speaks the mind of the community," U.S. Attorney Tom Moss said. "By the verdict today, they have given voice to the victims."
After the verdict, the jurors were whisked away from the federal courthouse in two white vans so they could avoid the phalanx of media covering the hearing.
The heinousness of the evidence in Dylan's murder made it particularly difficult for the jurors to remain impartial as they deliberated, said Art Patterson, a jury consultant and senior vice president of the trial consulting firm DecisionQuest.
"Generally, for human beings, it's pretty hard to maintain impartiality when confronted with such horror," Patterson said.
"How could any juror not want to see this person removed from our list of living human beings? How could you live with yourself as a juror if there's any chance this human being could escape from jail and do something like this again?" Patterson said.
~~Thank you jurors and judge, Now lets pray Shasta dont have 2 go to Cali & Washington State. Her father Steve spoke thru his electronic vocal box after the sh*t hit the fan on Duncan,and he was fierce! We have had many convos about both of us wanting 2 kill this scumbag and I give Steve so much respect 4 being there every day looking that scumbag in the face.

SPOKANE - In less than two hours a jury of 12 men and women decided that confessed killer Joseph Duncan was eligible for the death penalty for the murder of Dylan Groene.
Dylan, along with his sister Shasta, were abducted by Duncan from their family's home in Wolf Lodge Bay east of Coeur d'Alene in May of 2005 and held in a remote campsite in the woods of the Lolo National Forest in western Montana for several weeks.
Ever since winning the right to represent himself Duncan has taken a nearly hands-off approach to defending himself, at times supporting the prosecution's case and agreeing that he should be given the death penalty for the 10 felony charges he pled guilty to in the case late last year.
The capstone for Duncan's defense was his often-rambling closing arguments Friday morning where he raged against prosecutors, the jury and the system itself.
"You people really don't have any clue yet of the true heinousness of what I've done," he said. "I was not searching for a child, but rather I was on a rampage."
The jury's decision after roughly a week of testimony only caps the first of two phases in the sentencing trial.
Now that they have found him eligible for the death sentence the jury must now decide whether or not that should be his sentence. In order to get the death penalty the jurors must agree unanimously; if just one juror disagrees then Duncan would receive an automatic life sentence.
~~~Here the news page link to all the info that went on in court and all the disgusting details.Be warned,esp this last weeks trial! Evil is out there,kidz www.kxly.com/Global/category.asp?c=119317&nav=menu683_6_4 =^.^= ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
