Death penalty trial set for dad charged with killing his five children.

A father who police said killed his five young children in their South Carolina home and then drove their bodies around for more than a week is about to stand trial for his life.

Jones is charged with five counts of murder for killing his children, ages 8, 7, 6, 2 and 1, in their Lexington home in August 2014. Indictments said he strangled four of them and beat the other. Jones' lawyers have filed court papers saying he plans an insanity defense. Jury selection will likely take most, if not all this week.

The computer engineer struggled as a single father, according to records from the Department of Social Services, whose employees visited the home a dozen times in three years.

Golden State Killer trial could put anti-death-penalty Newsom in hot water with votersIf anyone deserves the death penalty, it’s the Golden State Killer, columnist George Skelton writes. The suspect in the case is accused of raping more than 50 women and charged with 13 murders. LATimesSkelton Newsom is a Democrat. They vote based on party. Not based on what is best for our state or the people. So he and other Democrats are allowed to do whatever they want. They won’t ever be in hot water with the majority of Californians, as they are Democrats. LATimesSkelton Does Death penalty brings anyone back? He’s in Hell now . LATimesSkelton I’m guessing the Golden State Killer is just hoping Bernie gets elected so he can join Newsom and vote NO on the death penalty.
