Death row killers may gain life terms after court ruling
Two deputy killers, Charles Culhane and Gerald McGivern, both 27, on Ulster County Death Row since 1971, are likely to have their sentences commuted to life after a court ruling abolishing the death penalty for police killers. The ruling by Chief Judge Fuld cited the Georgia decision on discretionary execution and could lead to new appeals or a retrial, though an appeal by the men exists.
