The penalty phase of the sierra lamar murder trial starts today. Jurors will decide if the 26 yearold man convicted of her death will get life in prison for kidnapping and killing sierra lamar. Azenith smith talk to a legal analyst who says testimony will be very emotional on both sides. It affected me in a way that i felt like i lost a sister. I was close to her in that aspect. We really supported each other emotionally. Reporter shauna was shauna lamarrs best friend. Secures a keychain with her at all time. While she does not support the death penalty, she says the pain of not knowing sierras whereabouts is indescribable. He is not spoke for over five years about anything. Where hes been and what happened to her thats all we want to know. Reporter she is among two dozen witnesses expected to testify this week as to why antolin garciatorres should be put to death Opening Statements of the penalty phase, a legal analyst says prosecutors will focus on the kidnap and murder of sierra as deliberate and premeditated while the defense will bring up garciatorres troubled home life. The defense is trying to get sympathy for him even though hes been convicted of horrible crimes. Theyre trying to say he is a man whose life is worth saving. Reporter one of the main arguments, garciatorres upbringing. His father was convicted in 2012 for sexually assaulting a young relative. Among those who could testify on behalf of garciatorres, a psychologist and his family notably, his exgirlfriend and mother to his young child. The jury would be allowed to consider the impact on that young child. The defense will try to play on all of those sympathetic natures of this case. Reporter clark said its a decision the jury will not take lightly since in this case there is still no clear explanation as to how the 15 yearold died. I ask the legal analyst of a deal could be made if Garcia Torres gives up information about sierras body. He said its possible but highly unlikely since Garcia Torres will likely appeal the courts decision. Azenith smith, ktvu fox 2 news.
