Death Row Seeing Double....

Source:
Orlando Sentinel

Twins sentenced to death row together. It has not yet happened but for the first time it may... and the two come from Orlando. They even sound alike in name. Dante and Donte Hall are accused of murdering Bernard Blunt and Kison Evans while performing a robbery. Donte is said to have planned the robbery with his girlfriend. The judge has yet to give a verdict but the recommended sentence is death.

Dante claims he had no part in the double murders and his lawyers claim he is nonviolent while his brother is violent. The defense acknowledged other crimes such as selling drugs on the street. The difference between them is there in both apperance and attitude. Donte has a telling tattoo and gold covered teeth whereas Dante does not. Sadly the people who crashed the party and killed two people were masked. Their reason for shooting? They didn't like what they had there to steal.

Is one of them guilty and the other innocent? I don't know. What I do know is that if they are both guilty, and if the judge deems it right, they'll make history as the first set of twins on death row.
