Description
More than twenty years ago, on February 25, 1974, Willie Lee Richmond was sentenced to death. Two decades later, Richmond is still alive and back before this court for the third time. To our knowledge, he is one of the longest-serving death row inmates in the United States. His case presents a classic example of the complex and often obscure rules governing capital sentencing schemes here and elsewhere in this country--rules that some would argue are increasingly incapable of consistent application.
