FILE - This U.S. Army photo made available by the Russell  family on May 12, 2009, shows U.S. Army Sgt. John M. Russell. A key military hearing will begin Monday, Aug. 8, 2011, for a Russell who is charged in a 2009 shooting that killed five service members at a mental health clinic in Iraq. Russell faces five counts of premeditated murder, two counts of attempted premeditated murder and one count of assault.  (AP Photo/Family photo)AP - An Army sergeant charged with fatally shooting five service members at a combat stress clinic in Iraq does not deserve the death penalty, a defense attorney said Thursday, arguing his client's actions could not have been premeditated because of his deteriorating mental health.
