Herda DetailsDetails The death penalty is surely one of the most highly contentious points the Supreme Court has had to weigh in on. Whether you believe in the death penalty or not, the Furman v. Georgia case was groundbreaking in its decision to stay Furman’s execution because it was arbitrary and, very possibly, racially motivated. Though it did not stop capital punishment, the case changed the way states had to weigh their decisions. Also included are questions to consider, primary source documents, and a chronology of the case.Publication Date: 01/01/2017Copyright: 2018Pages: 128Dewey: 345.73FormatsFormatISBNList PriceDiscount PriceLibrary Bound Book9780766084308$38.27$28.70eBook9780766084315$38.27$28.70 Loading… Other books in US Supreme Court Landmark Cases 12 Loading… Other books from the authors 1 Loading… eBook: 9780766084315 List Price: $38.27 Discount Price: $28.70 + Add to wish list Library Bound Book: 9780766084308 List Price: $38.27 Discount Price: $28.70 + Add to wish list Please log in Log in or register to create a wish list.
