Kidnap Law Stays Same for Chessman Death Penalty
Atty. Gen. Stanley Mosk said a proposed change to the California kidnap law does not alter the death penalty. Daryl Chessman, who faces execution at San Quentin on February 19, remains subject to death for kidnap involving bodily harm if retried and convicted of the 1948 Los Angeles kidnap and robbery. He seeks federal habeas relief, arguing the scheduled execution uses now-defunct statutes.
