Spenkelink v. Wainwright

C. A. 5th Cir. Motions of Association of the Bar of the City of New York and American Baptist Churches in the U. S. A. et al. for leave to file briefs as amici curiae granted. Certio-rari denied.

dissenting.

Adhering to our views that the death penalty is in all circumstances cruel and unusual punishment prohibited by the Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments, Gregg v. Georgia, 428 U. S. 153 , 227, 231 (1976), we would grant certiorari and vacate the death sentence in this case.
