Ms. Cardona was convicted of aggravated child abuse and the first-degree murder of her 3-year-old son, Lazaro Figueroa, whose body was found abandoned in 1990. She was sentenced to death but this Court later vacated her conviction and sentence and ordered a new trial. At the retrial, Ms. Cardona was convicted again. The jury voted 7-5 to recommend a death sentence and she was, for a second time, condemned to death. This is her direct appeal of that sentence.
