Death Penalty holdings from S.Ct.

June 13, 2006 in Law and the Courts, Sanctity of Life

Lame holding of U.S. S.Ct. on death penalty–trying to litigate from the bench what they prefer the laws regulating the Death Penalty should be. The AEDPA (Anti-Terrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act) effectively protected against wrongful administration of the DP.

And it is absolutely laughable that some believe it is “cruel and unusual punishment” (and thereby “Constitutionally prohibited”) to use lethal injection because of the mere possibility that a murderer may feel a stinging in his arm before the pain medicine kicks in and he fades off to sleep and death.
