COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho (AP) - Federal prosecutors will seek the death penalty against the registered sex offender accused of abducting two children last year and killing one of them, the U.S. attorney's office said Tuesday.
Joseph Edward Duncan III already faces state charges related to the abduction of Shasta Groene, 8, and Dylan Groene, 9, from their family's home east of Coeur d'Alene.
Dylan was later killed but Shasta was rescued at a restaurant in Coeur d'Alene on July 2, 2005, after seven weeks of captivity. Dylan's remains were found at a remote campsite in Montana.
