Court rules death penalty unconstitutional in ruling cited
The ruling states the death penalty is unconstitutional and delays release of the opinion text. The Supreme Court faces several death penalty cases but has not yet ruled. The last U.S. execution occurred in 1967 in Colorado. Anthony Amsterdam argues the death penalty is inconsistently applied to the miserable and socially unacceptable, allowing atrocities otherwise condemned.
