Support the independent voice of Phoenix and help keep the future of New Times free.
Fresh from the Thanksgiving holiday, the jury in the Mark Goudeau serial killing case returns to work this morning, scheduled to hear closing arguments in the "penalty phase" of the high-profile case.
The jury's decision, however, will not spell the end of the case: Judge Granville next month will sentence Goudeau for the other 58 felony convictions that the panel rendered, including sexual assaults, armed robberies, and kidnappings.
