Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty for an Alabama man who has been convicted of murdering his four children.



Lam Luong, 38, was found guilty of throwing the children off the Gulf coast bridge 80 feet into the sea.



Luong\'s lawyer had sought a reduced charge of manslaughter, saying his client was on drugs when he killed the children, but Luong reportedly told the police that he had an argument with his wife.
