Contributing sentiments towards policy:
45% : At 78, he would be the oldest prisoner executed in the state in the modern era of the death penalty.41% : Ad "No legitimate purpose for the death penalty would be served by carrying out his execution," the lawyers added.
39% : But his execution was held off by prolonged legal fights over how juries should be instructed to weigh mitigating evidence, like mental illness or a troubled childhood, when considering the death penalty.
39% : The year before Buntion killed Irby, the U.S. Supreme Court found Texas' death sentencing procedures unconstitutional for failing to instruct juries in the punishment phase of the trial -- after finding someone guilty of capital murder -- to consider whether mitigating evidence warrants a life sentence over the death penalty.
