California Supreme Court Bans Capital Punishment
The California Supreme Court rules capital punishment violates the state constitution's ban on cruel and unusual punishment. The decision, while binding in California, does not end death-row cases elsewhere.

Law enforcement and society could benefit from this ruling.
