"Death Penalty Is Thrown Out in Texas Murders"

ADVERTISEMENTS
"Death Penalty Is Thrown Out in Texas Murders": In today's edition of The New York Times, John Schwartz has an article that begins, "A Texas court threw out the death sentence on Wednesday of a man whose double murder conviction gained international attention because of revelations that the judge and prosecutor had had an extramarital affair."

Today in The Austin American-Statesman, Chuck Lindell reports that "Divided court tosses death sentence for Hood; Appeals court grants new sentencing trial, says Hood's jury received improper instructions."

And The Dallas Morning News reports that "Death row inmate gets new punishment hearing."

Yesterday's ruling of the Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas consists of a majority opinion and a dissenting opinion.

Earlier this week, columnist Rick Casey of The Houston Chronicle had a related op-ed entitled "Best clue: The case of the erotic candy."
