Florida pardon board weighs death sentence rulings
In Florida the pardon board will hear Fabies Simon of the ACLU Tuesday about 56 death sentences at Raiford State Prison. Simon argues the U S Supreme Court invalidated Florida death penalties by barring juries from imposing capital punishment. State official Kim McGuirk notes questions remain whether the ruling applies to all Florida cases and to individual sentences.
