Mr. Pham was convicted of the first-degree murder of his estranged wife, Phi Amy Pham, who was fatally stabbed in 2005. The jury voted 10-2 to recommend a death sentence and he was condemned to death. This Court upheld his sentence on direct appeal and Mr. Pham filed a postconviction challenge in trial court. It was denied and this appeal followed.
