Ng faces death in California murder trial
Dr Peter Smith opened the penalty phase of Charles Ng's murder trial in Santa Ana asserting he would seek the death penalty. Ng, 38, was convicted Feb 24 of 11 counts of first degree murder in a Northern California spree in the mid-1980s. The jury, nine women and three men, also found multiple murder, making capital punishment or life without parole the options. Leonard Lake, Ng's alleged accomplice, killed himself in June 1985 after police uncovered murder evidence. The case, one of California's longest and costliest, saw Ng extradition battles and a 1994 trial move to Orange County.
