Florida’s revised death penalty law ruled unconstitutional by state’s high court

Court rules against new death penalty law

Just seven months after Florida revamped its death penalty law, the state’s Supreme Court struck down the new statute as unconstitutional because it does not require juries to be unanimous about handing down the sentences.

With a pair of rulings Friday, the Florida Supreme Court further added to the uncertainty surrounding the death penalty in the state, one of the country’s leading practitioners of capital punishment and home to the second-biggest death-row population nationwide.

The U.S. Supreme Court struck down the state’s old law as unconstitutional in January because it allowed judges, not juries, to make the final decision about imposing capital sentences.
