Judge orders five year reprieve on death sentence in Koskovich case
A New Jersey judge, Reginald Stanton, commutes Koskovich's death sentence to life if Koskovich is alive in five years, saying death row proceedings are cruelly lengthy. The ruling, tied to the 1997 killing of pizza deliveryman Jeremy Giordano, is subject to automatic review. Prosecutors and defense lawyers call the order unprecedented and raise concerns about undermining jury authority.
