Eric Hanson of Naperville, Ill.. A jury on Wednesday, Feb. 27, 2008,
in Wheaton, Ill. , sentenced Hanson to death in the 2005 slayings of
his parents, sister and brother-in-law. During the trial,
prosecutors contended that Hanson committed the murders to hide that
he'd stolen thousands of dollars from his parents.
