  • {PDF EPUB} Simon Says by Gillian Colbert High Court: Florida Death Penalty System Is Unconstitutional
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Simon Says by Gillian Colbert High Court: Florida Death Penalty System Is Unconstitutional. WASHINGTON (CBSMiami) – The Governor, his attorney general, and court officials across the state are all reviewing the decision from the high court that could drastically change Florida’s death penalty system. In an 8-1 vote, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the system Florida courts have used to put inmates on death row for decades, saying it wrongly gives judges more authority than the jury. The ruling centers around Timothy Hurst who murdered his manager at a restaurant in Pensacola back in 1998. In a 7-5 vote jurors voted in favor of death, and the judge made the final decision to give him the death penalty. In the majority opinion, Justice Sonia Sotomayor wrote, “The Sixth Amendment requires a jury, not a judge, to find each fact necessary to impose a sentence of death. A jury’s mere recommendation is not enough.” Attorney General Pam Bondi issued the following statement regarding Tuesday’s U.S. Supreme Court ruling: “In light of today’s United States Supreme Court decision holding Florida’s capital sentencing procedure unconstitutional, the state will need to make changes to its death-sentencing statutes. I will work with state lawmakers this legislative session to ensure that those changes comply with the Court’s latest decision. The impact of the Court’s ruling on existing death sentences will need to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.” “I don’t think it’s a great surprise this decision came down putting Florida in line with other jurisdictions,” said attorney and former state and federal prosecutor David Weinstein.

    November 4, 2020 As members of the Writers Guild of America, East, we are proud to stand with our comrades on the staff of the Committee to Protect Journalists in their demand for a fair contract. The WGA East and CPJ share an institutional commitment to advocating for the safety, security, and freedom of writers. We therefore urge CPJ management to reinforce that commitment by agreeing to a union contract which: • fosters a more diverse, equitable, and sustainable workplace through increased salary minimums and fair across-the-board pay increases; and • demonstrates CPJ's recognition of—and investment in—their staff's work by codifying the organization's health and retirement benefits in the contract. After a year of negotiations,Deadline it's time for a contract at the Committee to Protect Journalists.
