Court Rules On Death Sentences
The Supreme Court ruled 5 to 4 that a death sentence cannot be imposed by a jury from which conscientious or religious scruples against capital punishment were automatically excluded. Justice Stewart said a hanging jury cannot be squared with the Constitution. The decision centers on William Witherspoon’s case in Illinois and does not decide the constitutionality of capital punishment itself.
