"Harlan was sentenced to death in 1995, but defense lawyers learned that five jurors had looked up such Bible verses as "eye for eye, tooth for tooth," copied them and discussed them while deliberating behind closed doors."

:furious: I couldn't believe this when I say it on the news yesterday! After all this time! He raped, tortured & murdered a poor woman & then shot a woman who tried to help this woman. This good samaritan was paralyzed because of Robert Harlan! Why does he have more rights and chances to avoid death than Rhonda Maloney?
