Jurors recommended life in prison for Daniel Lugo and Noel Doorbal, two members of Miami’s infamous “Sun Gym Gang” convicted of the 1995 murders of Golden Beach couple Frank Griga and Kriztina Furton.
The pair, previously sentenced to death, had their sentences overturned by the Florida Supreme Court, requiring a new decision. After lengthy deliberations, both juries chose life sentences over execution.
Lugo and Doorbal’s crimes, which included kidnapping, torture, and dismemberment, inspired the 2013 film Pain & Gain, starring Mark Wahlberg and Dwayne Johnson. Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle said while justice was served, the victims’ suffering must never be forgotten.
