WINONA, Miss. (AP) -- Curtis Giovanni Flowers will be tried the fifth time on September 22 for the shooting deaths of four people at a Winona furniture store in 1996.
Prosecutors will seek the death penalty.
Flowers is charged in the shooting deaths of shop owner Bertha Tardy and three of her employees.
Flowers has been convicted and sentenced to death in three previous trials involving the case, but each conviction was thrown out on appeal. A fourth trial in December ended in a mistrial when the jury said it was deadlocked.
