Cuomo to veto death penalty bill in Albany
Gov Mario Cuomo will veto the death penalty measure after the Assembly approved it 87 to 59 and the Senate as well. The two houses failed to reach a veto override threshold of 100 votes. The bill would create a dual jury system and automatic appeals, with life without parole as a key alternative.
