ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — A former death row inmate is back in front of a jury, marking the first case of its kind in Orange County to be sent back for resentencing.
Derrick McLean was sentenced to death for the 2004 murder of 16-year-old Jahvon Thompson during a home invasion on North Lane in Orlando.
The last time McLean was sentenced, it was 9-to-3 in favor of the death penalty.
The courts have since ruled that the death penalty must be unanimous. If a unanimous decision is not reached, McLean will get life in prison.
