steven hayes. the same jury will now decide if hayes will get the death penalty for the murder of jennifer hawk-petit and her two young daughters. after the verdict was read, a shaken dr. william petit thanked the jury and offered his thoughts on their verdict. >> there's some relief, but my family -- my family is still gone. it doesn't bring them back. it doesn't bring back the home that we had. but certainly a guilty verdict is a much better sense of relief than a verdict of not guilty. >> nbc's jeff rossen has been covering the trial from the beginning. just watching dr. petit there, it's just heartbreaking. most of us felt the verdict was a fore gone conclusion.
