Book Description
Argument: I. A death sentence for felony murder without a finding of culpable mental state of at least reckless indifference to human life violates the Eighth Amendment's requirement of a retributive or deterrence-based justification for capital punishment; II. In determining the culpability required for death-eligibility under the Eighth Amendment, a distinction between defendants who "actually killed" and defendants who committed murder without killing would be instable and unjustifiable; III. This Court's requirement of reasonably justified selection for execution forbids capital sentencing without a factual finding differentiating the death-eligibile defendant on the basics of desert or deterrance from others convicted of murder.
