Faith In Fantasy: The Supreme Court's Reliance On Commutation To Ensure Justice In Death Penalty Cases, Victoria J. Palacios

Vanderbilt Law Review

Since scarcely a decade after Furman v. Georgia,' the Supreme Court has struggled to avoid review of death penalty cases by narrowing the grounds defendants can use to challenge their sentences, as well as the procedures they can use to make those challenges. The Court supports its jurisprudence and the deregulation of death with an important but unexamined assumption: whatever shortcomings exist in the administration of the death penalty, ultimately injustice can and will be avoided by the exercise of the commutation power at the state level.
