|
death penalty • ineffective assistance of counsel • mitigating factors
|
|
|
Sotomayor dissented from the Court's denial of certiorari in a death penalty case. The defendant's attorney had failed to investigate or present any mitigating factors at sentencing, despite the defendant's history of severe physical and emotional abuse as a child. The state supreme court decided that failure to present this mitigation evidence was not prejudicial because it would not have "explained" the defendant's violent murder, which Sotomayor wrote was the wrong standard.
