Mr. Bright was convicted of the first-degree murders of Derrick King and Randall Brown, who were beaten to death in 2008. The jury recommended the death penalty by a vote of 8-4 and the trial court condemned Mr. Bright to death. This Court upheld the convictions and sentences on direct appeal. Mr. Bright filed a post-conviction challenge in the trial court and was granted a new penalty phase. The State of Florida appealed. This Court agreed with the order and remanded for a new penalty phase. This is Bright’s appeal from the second penalty phase at which a death sentence was again imposed for each murder after unanimous recommendations by the jury.
