Man who posted photos online of dead wife and child on Facebook faces life in prison if convicted

A jury will reconvene on Monday to decide the fate of a North Carolina man who allegedly murdered his wife and two-year-old daughter and then posted images of their corpses on Facebook as 'trophies.'

Elhadji Diop, 55, faces life in prison if he is convicted of two counts of first-degree murder in connection with the deaths of Aminata Drame, 40, and their daughter, Fatim.

The family immigrated to the United States from Somalia.

Wake County District Attorney Lorrin Freeman told jurors in a Raleigh courtroom on Friday that the pictures Diop posted on Facebook of his dead wife and daughter are enough proof to show he is guilty of murder.
Freeman said that Diop posted the photos on social media as if the bodies of his wife and daughter were 'like trophies,' according to WRAL-TV.
