High v. Zant, Warden.

C. A. 11th Cir. The order entered June 30, 1988 [ 487 U. S. 1233 ], is vacated. 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 vacate the death sentence in this case.
