KWWL Television Waterloo Cedar Rapids Dubuque Iowa City Decorah News Channel Weather Plus Sports Health Corridor Cedar Valley Tri State - Prosecutors will seek death penalty in deaf slaying

S.D. Prosecutors in Sioux Falls filed a document today indicating they will seek the death penalty against a deaf woman if she's convicted of killing or kidnapping another deaf woman.

Forty-three-year-old Daphne (DAF'-nee) Wright is accused of kidnapping and dismembering 42-year-old Darlene VanderGiesen (VAN'-dur-GEES'-en) in February.

VanderGiesen's remains were found in the Sioux Falls landfill and in a ditch near Beaver Creek, Minnesota.

An autopsy revealed she died from either suffocation or a blow to the head.

Her parents have since buried her remains near her hometown of Rock Valley, Iowa.

An affidavit says Wright told police she thought VanderGiesen was trying to break up a relationship with her girlfriend.

Wright's trial is scheduled to begin January second.
 
I remember that from awhile back on AllDeaf.com. Goes to show why murder is not worth it. I have no problem with seeing men go on death row to die in a corner of the electric chair or the lethal injection gurney or the firing squad but I am alittle bit apprehensive about sending a woman on death row, maybe because I have a very good mother who has been a very good mom to me my whole life and I tend to see the good in women so it will be up to the courts to decide if she gets the death penalty also, when I thought about it that if somebody, God Forbid were to murder my own daughter then I would be a very un-stoppable man until I see justice done one way or another so I can see why that family is going to make sure she dies for murdering their own daughter and I don't believe she was completely a lesbian but the murderer was 100% a sick lesbian with a demented homosexual mind, on top of that she is Deaf too with a very twisted mind so yes, she deserves to die for murdering that family's own daughter. I hope and pray that family wins in court on January 2nd, 2007 and she is sent to die.
 
Wow, what a sad. Hope she gets a fair trial with excellent intrepters and should have a deaf on jury.
